Once again it, offers a wealth of enriching experiences. From Joseph Haydn, we will hear the Symphony No. 87 in A major, the Notturno No. 5 in C major, the “Clock” symphony and the Violin Concerto No. 4 in G major. The works by Mozart to be played include the Horn Concerto No. 4 in E-flat major and, on the penultimate evening of the subscription, an all-Mozart programme consisting of the overture to Don Giovanni, the Piano Concerto No. 24 in C minor, the “Great” Symphony No. 40 in G minor, with the “Linz Symphony” featured on the final night. Representing Beethoven on the programme for the third concert will be his Second Symphony Interspersed among these greatest of composers will be lesser-known ones who spoke the same common musical language of the time. It is in this spirit that we will also hear music by Johann Georg Albrechtsberger and Johann Nepomuk Hummel, as well as pieces by the English composer William Boyce, who hails from the same generation as Carl Philipp Emanuel Bach, and Sweden’s Joseph Martin Kraus, born in the same year as Mozart. The
final concert expands the focus into the 19th century with the oboe concerto that the Italian Antonio Pasculli based on themes by Donizetti, as well as Schubert’s Rosamunde Overture and Fifth Symphony.
This season ticket brings to the stage such instrumental soloists as the trumpet wizard Gábor Boldoczki, horn player László Gál Jr, the outstanding French violin virtuoso Chouchane Siranossian and the pianist Mihály Berecz, with a chance at the last concert for us
all to enjoy François Leleux not only conducting, but, as usual, also playing his oboe. In addition to György Vashegyi, who will take the podium for two of the concerts, we will also get to meet some other excellent conductors specialising in early music like the Australian
Benjamin Bayl and Italy’s Andrea Marcon.
