Description
The two-day guest visit by the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra continues with music that wasn’t composed for any film, but could certainly serve as an ideal soundtrack: Edvard Griegs first «Peer Gynt» Suite being one example, composed for Henrik Ibsen’s drama of the same name. Sergei Rachmaninov’s «Paganini Variations» has been used over and over again in films, especially the famous, ardently yearning 18th variation. The young pianist Bruce Liu, winner of the Warsaw Chopin Competition 2021, makes his Grafenegg by setting out the case that high virtuosity and unerring musical sensitivity can be ideally combined. And Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov’s «Scheherazade» is in any case a kind of opera without words, with the solo violin as narrator of the stories from the «Thousand and One Nights».
