Eldbjørg Hemsing and Stavanger Symphony Orchestra, conducted by Christian Karlsen, perform an excerpt from Hillborg's Violin Concerto No. 2

an Pascal Tortelier was chief conductor of the ISO from 2016-2019 and returns now to the podium with an exciting programme of passionate and majestic music from France and Finland. The soloist for the evening is the young Norwegian violin star Eldbjørg Hemsing, who has recently emerged as one of the most spirited European violinists of her generation. She captivated audiences from all over the world with her televised performance at the 2021 Nobel Prize ceremony. Here she performs the stunning Sibelius Violin Concerto, the composer's love letter to the instrument, in which his imagination and unique musical language are on dazzling display. 

The concert opens with a beautiful but rarely performed overture by the French composer Gabriel Fauré. The overture is to the opera Pénélope, composed in 1913 and based on the Odyssey. The second half features the spectacular Symphony in B-flat major by Ernest Chausson. Chausson was a pillar of French composition at the end of the 19th century and blended various contemporary styles in his symphony, which is simultaneously dramatic in scale and poetically refined.

English

Yan Pascal Tortelier var aðalhljómsveitarstjóri Sinfóníuhljómsveitar Íslands á árunum 2016–2019 og snýr nú aftur með spennandi efnisskrá í farteskinu þar sem tilfinningaþrungin og glæsileg tónlist frá Frakklandi og Finnlandi er í aðalhlutverki. Einleikari á tónleikunum er hin unga, norska fiðlustjarna Eldbjørg Hemsing sem á undanförnum árum hefur haslað sér völl sem einn kraftmesti fiðluleikari sinnar kynslóðar í Evrópu. Margir hrifust til að mynda af leik hennar við afhendingu Nóbelsverðlaunanna 2021 sem sjónvarpað var um víða veröld. 

Hún leikur hér hinn ægifagra fiðlukonsert Sibeliusar, ástaróð tónskáldsins til hljóðfærisins þar sem hugmyndaflug og einstakt tónmál hans nýtur sín til fulls. Tónleikarnir hefjast á hrífandi en sjaldheyrðum forleik franska tónskáldsins Gabriels Fauré að óperunni Pénélope frá 1913, sem samin var upp úr efni Ódysseifskviðu. Eftir hlé verður frumflutt verk eftir Yan Pascal Tortelier sjálfan, fyrir einleiksfiðlu og hljómsveit en svo hljómar hin stórbrotna Sinfónía í B-dúr eftir Ernest Chausson. Chausson var staksteinn í frönskum tónsmíðum í lok 19. aldar og fléttaði ólíkum stílbrigðum samtíðar sinnar saman í verk sem býr jöfnum höndum yfir dramatískri stærð og ljóðrænni fágun.
