JULIA FISCHER / ACADEMY OF ST MARTIN IN THE FIELDS by Various, 周二 03 5月 2022, 从 (2022/2022), 导体 Julia Fischer, Elbphilharmonie, Hamburg, Germany

ALWAYS AN ACE UP YOUR SLEEVE They exist, these very special compilations of works that can only be found in the programs of the Academy of St Martin in the Fields: Haydn's legendary »Farewell Symphony«, with which he discreetly informed Prince Esterházy of his musicians' need for vacation, and Tchaikovsky's »Souvenir d'un lieu cher" is such a typically ingenious combination. The longing to be able to leave the Esterházys' estate, at least for a while, meets the longing to be able to visit the estate of the patron Nadeshda von Meck again. And with Julia Fischer as the soloist, the chamber orchestra has another ace up its sleeve that promises a guaranteed successful evening. The unpretentious top violinist has been closely associated with the Academy for years.
