Skalkottas and his contemporaries IV
With the kind support of the Embassy of Israel in Athens
Fri. 17 May 2019 20:30
Megaron – The Athens Concert Hall
Christos Lambrakis Hall
The tribute to Skalkottas and his era ends with Schoenberg’s Five pieces for orchestra, a radical work and a milestone in the history of German musical expressionism. Still, however ground-breaking that movement may seem, it actually served as a continuation of the great German symphonic tradition. Weber and Brahms are both central to this tradition, and we will be hearing two of their best-loved works in thoughtful interpretations from the Israeli conductor, Yoav Talmi.
