Violinist

Selections from Margaret Bond’s fervent Montgomery Variations plus Samuel Barber’s lyrical Violin Concerto, featuring virtuoso soloist Nathan Meltzer, make up the first half of our final concert, commemorating the 250th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence. Aaron Copland’s magnificent Third Symphony, written in 1946 on commission from Serge Koussevitsky, boasts a heroic finale based on Copland’s earlier Fanfare for the Common Man. The piece was immediately hailed as “the greatest American symphony – it goes from the heart to the heart.”

Commongrounds

Die Richard-Wagner-Akademie der Dresdner Musikfestspiele hat sich für dieses Programm mit drei außerordentlichen Kammermusikwerken beschäftigt. Im Zentrum steht dabei Richard Wagners Musik, die jedoch nicht ohne den Schatten seiner antisemitischen Haltung betrachtet werden kann, und im Gedenken an das Ende des Zweiten Weltkriegs vor 80 Jahren mit dem Schicksal und dem Wirken zweier jüdischer Komponisten in Beziehung gesetzt wird.
