concerts of the 2020-21 season
Third Wednesday concert
Radio broadcast: Notte italiana
with opera star Krassimira Stoyanova
Wednesday, 10 February 2021, 8:30 pm
A Mediterranean summer night in mid-February: the Munich Radio Orchestra makes it possible! An indispensable ingredient of this Notte Italiana is a selection of arias full of feeling and passion, ranging from richly textured scenes from Verdi to grandiose opera tunes familiar from advertisements, movies or your favourite CD. The joy of recognition is guaranteed! Exhilarating overtures and orchestral interludes are a must, of course, as is Tchaikovsky’s Capriccio italien, a brilliant orchestral study written while the composer was staying in Rome.
Fourth Wednesday concert
Le Grand Tango
Homage to Astor Piazzolla
Wednesday, 5 May 2021, 7:30 pm
Prinzregententheater, Munich
“Your tango is new, and it is honest”: thus Nadia Boulanger’s assessment of her strange scholarship student Astor Piazzolla (1921–1992). Indeed, he is the founding father of Tango Nuevo, a species of tango that combines dance and art music, tradition and avant-garde, rising from the shadowy dives of Buenos Aires into the bright glare of the world’s concert halls. Tango Nuevo is ballet music, tango-opera, concerto and musical experiment at the highest level. Whether noble and restrained or explosive and volcanic, it is pure emotion in notes.
Prices: 18 – 45 € (depending on the category).
