Description
The Junge Symphoniker Hamburg, conducted by Daniel Kirchmann, will be performing two works by great composers in their spring concert programme: the orchestra will begin the concert with an elegant yet fateful work by Ludwig van Beethoven: his Third Piano Concerto is in C minor, the same key as the Fifth Symphony, which gave the work a huge boost in popularity as an early example of the »heroic phase« of the titan of Viennese classical music. The solo part will be performed by the young Japanese pianist Yoichiro Chiba, who recently won third place in the Possehl Music Competition at the Lübeck Musikhochschule.
A real triumph after great disappointment was the Second Symphony for Sergei Rachmaninov, which is performed in the second part of the concert: with this highly emotional work, the composer finally overcame a creative crisis that had overtaken him after the disastrous premiere of his First Symphony. In the Second, he wanted to do everything better - and did so successfully: the symphony remains one of Rachmaninov’s most popular works to this day. Composed shortly after the famous Second Piano Concerto, it shares its rapturous tone and gripping melody.
