Academy of St Martin in the Fields & Julia Fischer
Julia Fischer plays BeethovenInternational top orchestrasThu 16 May ’24For those who have never fallen in love with Julia Fischer, here's another chance. The lovely German plays Ludwig van Beethoven's two romances. Two works in which the great Ludwig once showed himself from an light hearted side. Star violinist Fischer is the most appropriate interpreter for them. This time she play-conducts the legendary Academy of St. Martin in the Fields, named after that magnificent church in the heart of London where it all once began in 1959. The famous chamber orchestra of which many will have LPs, CDs or DVDs on their shelves.

L'Arpeggiata
Alla NapoletanaInternational baroque orchestrasFri 17 May ’24Naples in the 17th century. The capital of music. The city where the opera was born and the commedia dell'arte. Its music academies strive to deliver the very best talent, musicians, composers but also the castrates who will turn out to become very famous. Tonight, the Italian ensemble L'Arpeggiata delves into this Naples of the seicento, playing the magnificent vocal repertoire that originated there. And thus a small war breaks out in the Gulf of Naples between small and big fish; the cause: a dodgy sardella sauce in which they are prepared. At the crib of the baby Jesus, shepherds sing "ninne nanne" lullabies; and in the streets of Naples, virtuosic, blazing dances are on display while in the palaces, castrati perform their virtuoso arias.

The Storioni Trio in Beethoven's Triple ConcertoStorioni FestivalSun 19 May ’24'Of course, my symphony has a story, but I cannot express it in words,' Tchaikovsky replied when asked about the content of his Fourth Symphony. Yet this passionate symphony has everything to do with his life. The impending doom in the opening fanfare, that string melody full of restlessness and longing, the returning light in the playful strumming of the scherzo. The year 1877 had great heights and deep valleys for the troubled composer. At this concert in collaboration with the Storioni Festival, the Storioni Trio itself cannot, of course, be missing. And what could be better than Beethoven's famous Triple Concerto. Three soloists and a symphony orchestra, that will be a feast of chamber music-like intimacy and symphonic brilliance.

Spring concert Symphony Orchestra Eindhoven
Passion en romanceFor the Love of MusicThu 23 May ’24The violin concerto by Brahms is one of the most significant works in the violin repertoire. From a technical standpoint, the concerto is highly demanding, featuring extensive use of polyphony, broken chords, rapid passages, and rhythmic variation. The Symphony in D minor is the most well-known orchestral work and the only symphony written by the 19th-century composer César Franck. The symphony employs a cyclic form, with significant themes recurring in all three movements. Particularly beautiful is the melodic line at the beginning of the slow movement, featuring harp, English horn, and mysteriously played muted strings.

This mysterious history is the starting point for Pynarello's journey of discovering Symphony Pathétique.
