Rising Stars / Horácio Ferreira
Debussy / Weber / Martinů / Hakola
The Elbphilharmonie proudly presents a real insider tip of the music scene from Portugal: Horácio Ferreira. Highly decorated at competitions and supported by numerous foundations in the Iberian Peninsula, the young clarinettist is on the way to make himself known to a larger audience.
At the renowned Debussy Competition in Paris Ferreira caused a stir when he was awarded a special prize for exactly the same work that he has chosen for the opening of his debut concert at the Elbphilharmonie: Rhapsody No. 1 by Claude Debussy.
The rest of the programme resembles a stroll through the diversity of Europe’s musical history, including a work by Bruno Mantovani, Director of the Paris Conservatory. Horácio Ferreira returns to the music of the southwest of Europe for the conclusion of his programme. He gives free rein to his virtuosity in the famous Carmen Fantasy by Spanish violinist and composer Pablo de Sarasate. Horácio Ferreira answers questions in a Meet the Artist discussion before the concert begins.
