Violist

What would the orchestral sound be without violas? One only has to experience a Mahler symphony to appreciate the slightly darkened, slightly scratchy sound of this often overlooked string group. In this chamber concert, the viola—as it prefers to be called, more elegantly—can be enjoyed in its purest form and up close. Oksana Labach and Igor Tulchynsky of the viola section of the Göttingen Symphony Orchestra put their instrument in the spotlight, performing works by Carl Stamitz, Max Reger, Jean Sibelius, and Jean-Marie Leclair. And the occasional addition of a violin to the stage provides an opportunity to marvel at the special character of its bigger sister by comparison.
