4. Sinfonie­konzert by Prokofiev, Vaughan Williams, Elgar, Márquez, от (2023/2023), диригент Alondra de la Parra, Kultur- und Kongresszentrum - Liederhalle, Stuttgart, Germany

The Conductor Alondra de la Parra returns to the rostrum of the Staatsorchester Stuttgart and presents works from Russia, England and her native Mexico. Albrecht Mayer is a guest for the first time and will interpret Ralph Vaughan Williams' longingly dreamy oboe concerto and Edward Elgar's melancholy Soliloquy . The star oboist already delighted audiences with the latter on his album Longing for Paradise. The two English works are framed by two symphonies: one “classical” and one humorously described as “impossible”. Sergei Prokofiev's First Symphony of 1917 owes its nickname Symphonie classique to the parodic recourse to the classical style of Joseph Haydn. In doing so, Prokofiev also plays with the expectations of the listeners and causes many a surprise. The ironic view of the genre of the symphony connects Prokofiev with the Sinfonía Imposible , a new work by Arturo Márquez, which has its German premiere in this concert.
