SCO: Spring Serenade
8 April 2010 at 7:30pmat The Queen's Hall
Thierry Fischer: conductor; Baiba Skride: violin
Haydn: March for the Royal Society of Musicians; Mozart: Violin Concerto No.5 in A major, K.219 'Turkish'; Brahms: Serenade No.1
If you like your music melodious and big-hearted, with more than a hint of folk influence, Brahms’ Serenades are for you. Both of them feature in this season (the second is in May) and they include some of his most immediately appealing music. Fischer deftly complement the First Serenade with works by the two composers who strongly influenced Brahms at the time of its writing – Haydn and Mozart.
