Corinth’s concerto

Corinth

This year's artistic season concludes with another concert tour outside Athens. Leo Brouwer's Corinth Concerto for guitar, commissioned by the Greek Orchestra of Athens and the Municipality of Corinth, is a wonderful musical "prelude" before the performance of the famous Ninth Symphony by the Czech Romantic Antonín Dvořák, conducted by Nikos Haliasas. This famous symphony was written at the end of the 19th century during the composer's stay in New York, drawing on his musical experiences in the United States and incorporating them into an emotionally charged and orchestrationally brilliant symphonic masterpiece.
