6. Sinfoniekonzert: Violin Concerto in E Minor, op. 64 (+2 More)

With Ester Mägi, General Music Director Hendrik Vestmann is continuing his plan to bring composers from his home country closer to the Oldenburg audience. Mägi is regarded as the most important Estonian composer of the 20th century; her orchestral work 'Bukoolika', published in 1983, is also referred to as the 'visiting card of Estonian music'.

Around 150 years earlier, Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy composed his Violin Concerto in E minor, which was to become one of his best-known works as well as one of the most frequently performed in the violin literature and set standards for the genre. The violinist Tianwa Yang, who has made guest appearances around the world, can be seen on stage in Oldenburg for the first time.

It was not only contemporaries who praised Sibelius's Symphony No. 1 as a work “full of uninhibited power, passionate vivacity and astonishing daring”. The extent to which the composer "charts new paths" is already evident in the unusual opening of the work with a clarinet solo.

Mit Ester Mägi setzt Generalmusikdirektor Hendrik Vestmann sein Vorhaben fort, dem Oldenburger Publikum Komponist:innen seines Heimatlandes nahezubringen. Mägi gilt als bedeutendste Komponistin Estlands des 20. Jahrhunderts; ihr 1983 erschienenes Orchesterwerk ‚Bukoolika‘ wird auch als „Visitenkarte der estnischen Musik“ bezeichnet.

Rund 150 Jahre zuvor komponierte Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy sein Violinkonzert in e-Moll, das zu einem seiner bekanntesten Werke wie auch zu einem der meistgespielten der Geigenliteratur werden und Gattungs-Maßstäbe setzen sollte. Erstmals in Oldenburg auf der Bühne zu erleben ist die weltweit gastierende Geigerin Tianwa Yang.

Als ein Werk „voll von ungehemmter Kraft, leidenschaftlicher Lebhaftigkeit und erstaunlicher Waghalsigkeit“, rühmten nicht nur die Zeitgenossen Sibelius’ 1. Sinfonie. Wie sehr der Komponist darin „neue Wege vorzeichnet", zeigt sich bereits in der ungewöhnlichen Eröffnung des Werks mit einem Klarinettensolo.
