Tchaikovsky, Violin Concerto
Beethoven, Symphony No. 6, Pastoral
Tchaikovsky’s Violin Concerto is undoubtedly one of the pillars of the violin repertoire. Brimful of iconic tunes and genuinely heart-stirring moments, and ending with a scintillating finale at breakneck pace, the Violin Concerto is the perfect vehicle to celebrate the stupendous talent of Augustin Hadelich. Renowned for his ability to look at “two-dimensional notes on paper” and create “four-dimensional marvels of sonic ingenuity,” his “almost supernatural command of every phrase” (Aspen Times) ensures that his rendition of the Tchaikovsky will be a once-in-a-lifetime experience.
Beethoven’s Pastoral Symphony is a gentle respite after the fire and fury of his Fifth. Twittering birds, rejoicing village folk and rippling streams of melody populate this loving picture of the European countryside.
