SUMMARY:The “Big Two” Of Vienna: Classical Concert: February 23-24\, 2019
DESCRIPTION:The “Big Two” of Vienna\nThe Vancouver Symphony Orchestra presents The Big Two of Vienna\, performing three timeless masterpieces by Viennese composers\, Beethoven and Mozart\, February 23rd and 24th at Skyview Concert Hall. \nDETAILS\nThe orchestra shares the stage with distinguished Spanish pianist\, Ignasi Cambra. First-place recipient of several international prestigious competitions and praised by celebrated conductor Valery Gergiev\, Cambra joins the VSO in performing Beethoven’s Piano Concerto No. 3\, a piece praised in its time for “a new kind of slow movement\,” long and drawn-out romantic melodies over the tinkling of piano keys. \nThe orchestra begins its 40th Anniversary Spring program with Mozart’s The Magic Flute and Beethoven’s Symphony No. 4\, two masterworks indicative of Viennese classical style: boisterous\, yet elegant and refined. Symphony No. 4 showcases that classical style\, a graceful composition flowing from mysterious\, lingering sections to light and quick. Composer Hector Berlioz “claimed [the second movement] was the work of the Archangel Michael\, and not that of a human” (Wiki). Music Director and world-renowned conductor Maestro Salvador Brotons returns to Skyview Concert Hall for his 28th season. \nConcert Steinway piano generously provided by Michelle’s Pianos.  \nAbout Ignasi Cambra – Hailed by legendary conductor Valery Gergiev as “someone who can talk to me at the piano\,” pianist Ignasi Cambra was a Jacobs Scholar and recipient of a 2010 scholarship from Juventudes Musicales de Madrid.
