The
Willoughby Symphony is having an
all-Mozart programme today, presumably in celebration of
W.A. Mozart's 250th birth anniversary. Not all works are by
Mozart, but they are somewhat related to him:
- Symphony No. 15 in G Major, K. 124
- Allegro
- Andante
- Menuetto and Trio
- Presto
- Violin Concerto No. 5 in A Major, K. 219
- Allegro Aperto - Adagio - Allegro Aperto
- Adagio
- Rondo - Tempo di Minuetto
- Schnittke's Moz-Art a la Haydn
- Haydn's Symphony No. 45 in F Sharp Minor ("Farewell")
- Allegro assai
- Adagio
- Menuet: Allegretto
- Finale: Presto
- Adagio
Suyeon Kang, 2005 Australian Young Performer of the Year, joins the Willoughby Symphony as solo violinist with 2002 Australian Young Conductor of the Year Ollivier-Phillippe Cuneo conducting. I liked the violin concerto, but
Schnittke's piece is way too avant-garde for me. The instruments were (intentionally) being played out of synch and out of tune, the music actually bothered me. By then, I was not in the mood to appreciate the Farewell Symphony anymore.
