Concertino: Haydn, Mozart, Mendelssohn, R. Strauss

About the Event

In this highly‐anticipated concert, hear the sounds of classical music by Haydn, Mozart, Mendelssohn and R. Strauss at Budapest's Liszt Academy.

The very first symphony by the 25‐year‐old Haydn, one of the early symphonies of the 14‐year‐old Mozart and the first string symphony of the 17‐year‐old Mendelssohn will be among the pieces performed at the June concert of the BFO’s Concertino series, proving that classical music can be youthful. The program also features a Mozart concerto, more popular for flute but originally composed for oboe and orchestra, with the solo part played by Victor Aviat, principal oboe of the Festival Orchestra, who has also worked with the BFO as a conductor on several occasions.
