Description

The world’s oldest civic symphony orchestra was founded in 1743. Since 1781 it has been named after the Gewandhaus, the concert hall that, at that point, it had just moved into, The orchestra is now making a guest visit to Grafenegg for the second time since 2012, led by Gewandhauskapellmeister Andris Nelsons, who was here more recently conducting the Boston Symphony Orchestra in two concerts in 2016. «As if a skylark were singing above the homeland’s scented meadows», wrote Otakar Šourek once about the slow movement of Antonín Dvořák’s Violin Concerto. The exceptional American violinist Hilary Hahn is without doubt one of the best qualified soloists to interpret this music. Jean Sibelius let the light and shade of his own homeland, Finland, flow into his Second Symphony: a splendid conclusion to the long-awaited second Gewandhaus visit to Grafenegg.
