Asiaturné Klaus Mäkelä Nobuyuki Tsujii: Festive Overture in A Major, op. 96 Shostakovich (+2 More)

Oslo-filharmonien i Japan
Høsten 2023 drar Oslo-filharmonien på en tre ukers turné bestående av tolv konserter i Japan, Sør-Korea og Taiwan.

Dmitrij Sjostakovitsj skrev sin fartsfylte og energiske Festivalouverture i 1947. Den var bestilt til 30-årsmarkeringen av oktoberrevolusjonen, men bestillingen kom svært sent, og Sjostakovitsj skrev stykket ferdig på tre dager.

Pianokonsert nr. 2 ble skrevet til Sjostakovitsj’ sønn, Maxim, som urfremførte verket som en del av sin eksamenskonsert ved musikkonservatoriet i Moskva i 1957. Selv om Sjostakovitsj selv hevdet at konserten «ikke hadde noen kunstnerisk verdi», ble den umiddelbart svært populær og har holdt seg på repertoaret i mer enn 60 år.

Richard Strauss (1864–1949) nådde på 1890-tallet nye høyder som dirigent og komponist. Han fullførte i 1898 det symfoniske diktet Ein Heldenleben i Berlin, der han hadde blitt ansatt som dirigent for hoffoperaen. Også Strauss måtte forholde seg til fortidens mesterverk – særlig til Beethovens tredje symfoni Eroica. Begge verk tar for seg det heroiske og heltens liv, Eroica skulle opprinnelig tilegnes Napoleon. Mye tyder på at Ein Heldenleben er et slags selvportrett der Strauss beskriver seg selv, sin kone og sine argeste kritikere i musikken.

Oslo Philharmonic in Japan
In the autumn of 2023, the Oslo Philharmonic embarks on a three-week tour of twelve concerts in Japan, South Korea, and Taiwan.

Dmitri Shostakovich wrote his fast-paced and energetic Festive Overture in 1947. It was commissioned for the 30th anniversary of the October Revolution, but the commission came in very late, and Shostakovich finished the piece in three days. 

Shostakovich’s second piano concerto was composed for the composers’s son, Maxim, who gave the work's first performance as part of his examination concert at the Moscow Conservatory in 1957. Although Shostakovich himself claimed that the concerto did not have any artistic merit, it became immediately popular, and has remained in the core orchestral repertoire for more than 60 years. 

In the 1890s, Richard Strauss (1864-1949) reached new heights as a conductor and composer. In 1989 he finished the symphonic poem Ein Heldenleben in Berlin, where he was employed as a conductor of the court opera. Strauss also had to deal with the masterpieces of the past - especially Beethoven's third symphony Eroica. Both works deal with the heroic and the hero's life; Eroica was originally intended to be dedicated to Napoleon. There are many indications that Ein Heldenleben is a kind of self-portrait in which Strauss describes himself, his wife, and his fiercest critics in music.
