Jenufa

Violin Concerto No. 2 in G Minor, H. 293

Symphony No. 3 in A Minor, Op. 44

Approved

Leoš Janáček: Sjalusi, originalt forspill til Jenůfa
Bohuslav Martinů: Fiolinkonsert nr. 2
Sergej Rakhmaninov: Symfoni nr. 3

Det er en glede å ha den greske stjernefiolinisten Leonidas Kavakos som solist i et av den tsjekkiske komponisten Bohuslav Martinůs hovedverk, hans 2. fiolinkonsert. Han er prisbelønt og hylles internasjonalt. Tidsskriftet Gramophone mener at det ikke det finnes mange av hans like: «I doubt if there is more than a handful of violinists alive who can match Kavakos in the tonal variety, accuracy and speed of his harmonics. In fact, I wonder if Paganini would have equalled him». Stilmessig er Martinů preget av impulser fra både impresjonisme og modernisme, og tonespråket hans er ofte rytmisk og lekent.

Sergej Rakhmaninovs tredje symfoni står Sir Mark Elders hjerte nært, og det er et verk han gjerne dirigerer. Symfonien regnes som den mest russiske av Rakhmaninovs symfonier, ikke minst takket være de folkedansaktige tema man finner i tredje og siste sats.

Leoš Janáček: Jealousy, original prelude to Jenůfa
Bohuslav Martinů: Violin Concerto No. 2
Sergej Rakhmaninov: Symphony No. 3

It is a pleasure to have the Greek star violinist Leonidas Kavakos as soloist in one of the Czech composer Bohuslav Martinů's major works, his 2nd Violin Concerto. He has been awarded and praised internationally. The magazine Gramophone believes that there are not many like him: "I doubt if there is more than a handful of violinists alive who can match Kavakos in the tonal variety, accuracy and speed of his harmonics. In fact, I wonder if Paganini would have equaled him". Stylistically, Martinů is characterized by impulses from both impressionism and modernism, and his tonal language is often rhythmic and playful.

Sergej Rachmaninov's third symphony is close to Sir Mark Elder's heart, and it is a work he enjoys conducting. The symphony is considered the most Russian of Rachmaninov's symphonies, not least thanks to the folk dance-like theme found in the third and last movement.
