Jader Conducts Tchaikovsky's Fourth Symphony by Martucci, Dohnányi, E., Tchaikovsky, P. I., Aπό (2023/2023), αγωγός Jader Bignamini, Orchestra Hall, Detroit, United States

From the opening horn calls signaling unstoppable fate to the delirious ending full of cymbal crashes and orchestral fireworks, Tchaikovsky’s Fourth Symphony serves, in the composer’s words, as a “faithful echo” of an intense emotional journey. Martucci’s Nocturne employs gentle, beautiful melodies to portray nighttime calm, and Dohnányi’s set of variations humorously transforms a familiar childhood melody through a variety of musical styles.
