Barber, Marsalis & Dvořák by Dvořák, Barber, Marsalis, から (2023/2023), 導体 Lina Gonzalez-Granados, Musikkens Hus, Aalborg, Denmark

The American jazz musician, Winton Marsalis, has distinguished himself in recent years as a versatile musician who seems to embrace and unite all styles of music with the greatest naturalness. In 2021, he composed a tuba concerto for the evening's soloist, Carol Jantsch, who is currently a tuba player in The Philadelphia Orchestra. The concert was created in close collaboration with Carol Jantsch and takes the audience around the tuba's many and often surprising expressive possibilities. Dvořák's 5th Symphony is often compared to Beethoven's Pastoral Symphony. Both symphonies are in F major, and both symphonies take the audience on a musical journey into the enchanting universe of nature. With Dvořák, the gentle Bohemian woods are painted with his sublime melodic sense. Program: Barber: Essay No. 1 for orchestra Marsalis: Concerto for tuba and orchestra -- Dvořák: Symphony No. 5
