Juanjo Mena - Conductor // Augustin Hadelich - Violin
Smetana Vltava
Bartók Violin Concerto No. 2
Dvo?ák Symphony No. 9 'From the New World'
The brilliant young German Augustin Hadelich takes on Bartók's intensely expressive Second Violin Concerto. Dvo?ák, too, was an Eastern European who felt compelled to cross the Atlantic, the music of the African-American spiritual echoing through the famous slow movement of the New World Symphony.
The symphony has never lost its appeal, largely due to its dramatic and melodic strength; something which the opening piece, Smetana's depiction of the river running through Prague, also has in abundance.
Free pre-concert talk, 6.30pm in the auditorium: Tim Jones introduces the programme.
