Igor Stravinskys fargerike musikk om dukken som våkner til live, et lite stykke dansk impresjonisme samt urframføring av en cellokonsert både skrevet og framført av kunstnere med tilknytning til Bergensområdet.

Mens Stravinskys mest berømte ballettmusikk, Vårofferet, beskrev en jente som danser seg selv til døde, forteller forgjengeren, Petrusjka, om en dukke som våkner til live. Da verket ble presentert I 1911, fortalte musikken den skumle historien om magi, rivalisering, intriger og lengsel mer levende enn noen gang.

Konserten innledes med Carl Nielsens streiftog innom musikalsk impresjonisme, Pan & Syrinx, basert på den romerske skribenten Ovids poetiske verk Metamorfoser. Stykket ble omtalt som en dansk Prelude à l’Après-midi d’un faune’ etter førstegangsframføringen i 1918.

Kveldens solist, Amalie Stalheim (foto: Nikolaj Lund), brenner for å bestille nyskrevet musikk for cello, og hun har bestilt og urframført en rekke cellokonserter de siste sesongene. Nå er turen kommet til Therese Birkelund Ulvos konsert If we ever become separated.

norsk

While Stravinsky’s most famous ballet score The Rite of Spring depicts a girl dancing herself to death, its predecessor Petrouchka tells of a puppet springing to life. When the score first emerged in 1911, it appeared to tell its ghoulish stories of magic, rivalry, intrigue and longing more vividly than any music that had gone before it.

While some Ballet nuts convinced Stravinsky to tone-down the music’s blazing colours and often acerbic hard edge, the composer soon restored all his original extravagance for the concert version of the score. Chief conductor Edward Gardner conducts that version here, in all its wicked detail and irreverence. Before it comes Carl Nielsen’s foray into musical impressionism, his hazy and misty orchestral take on the story of Pan and Syrinx from Ovid’s Metamorphoses that was described as a ‘Danish Prelude à l’Après-midi d’un faune’ after its first performance in 1918.

The concert’s own contribution to muiscal history comes from the world premiere of a brand new cello concerto by Therese Birkelund Ulvo, one of Norway’s most sought-after composers, commissioned and played by the winner of the 2021 Norwegian Soloists’ Prize, Amalie Stalheim (photo: Nikolaj Lund).
