Dresdner Musikfestspiele: Electrifying musical language — Frang, HR Symphony Orchestra, Altinoglu
Dresden, Kulturpalast
About the Event
Celebrated worldwide for her impressive virtuosity and unique temperament, Vilde Frang is one of the most sought‐after violinists of our time. The Neue Zürcher Zeitung aptly wrote that the Norwegian musician plays “with her hand in a power socket.” This passionate approach fits perfectly with Bartók's Second Violin Concerto, which mixes its classical structure with an electrifying stylistic diversity. The passionate musician will be performing in Dresden together with the Frankfurt Radio Symphony Orchestra, undoubtedly one of Germany's finest ensembles. Together with their French principal conductor Alain Altinoglu, the Frankfurt musicians will perform one of the most brilliant symphonic works in the second part of the concert: Brahms' Symphony No. 4. This work had a somewhat difficult start after its premiere, as its beginning seemed a little abstract to contemporaries. Today, however, it is precisely this poetic beginning, the joyous exuberance of the third movement, and the solemn finale that make the Fourth one of the most popular symphonies of all time.
