Ivan Fischer Conducts Bartok and Tchaikovsky

演出简介

Renowned conductor Ivan Fischer offers two of the most celebrated works of the orchestral repertoire.

Bartok's spectacular Music for Strings, Percussion and Celesta is one of only a handful of modern masterpieces that have managed to find their way into the repertoires of every major symphony orchestra. Tchaikovsky's fourth symphony was first performed in St. Petersburg in the Winter of 1878. It was not an instant success. Over time however, this emotionally charged giant of a symphony has come to win over musicians and audiences alike and has become one of the most beloved and frequently performed orchestral works of the 19th century.

The Concertgebouw, with its incomparable acoustics, exciting programming and attractive neo‐classical architecture, has long stood at the centre of Amsterdam's vibrant musical life. The acoustics in particular have established the hall as a favourite of acclaimed conductors, orchestras and soloists over the years. Bernard Haitink, Long time principal conductor and conductor laureate of the Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra, is said to have once described it as the best instrument in the orchestra that it houses. A pleasure for musicians, the hall's unique qualities have not gone lost on audiences either. With over 850,000 visitors at ca. 800 events a year, it is the second most‐visited concert hall in the world.
