Vilde Frang

Martin Fröst

Örebro Konserthus

Swedish Chamber Orchestra

Vilde Frang is a Norwegian star violinist who is now visiting Örebro for the first time. Her exquisite playing fits like a glove for Schumann's heartfelt violin concerto, which brilliantly contrasts with Brahms's first, fateful, symphony. He had struggled with the symphonic form for many years before finally releasing this monumental work that has since become a cornerstone of the symphonic repertoire. It took him 14 years to complete and premiered in 1876. The reviews were mixed and it is only later that it has been recognized as the masterpiece it is. We would like to draw your attention to the fact that the concerto is approximately 80 minutes long.

The Fateful One

Örebro Concert Hall

Vilde Frang is a Norwegian star violinist who is now visiting Örebro for the first time. Her choice of solo concert reflects a very conscious musician who carefully thinks through her repertoire. The balance of this, somewhat fragile, music against Brahms' heavyweights is also carefully thought out. From his opening heavy drum beats, Brahms sets the direction from darkness to light. Brahms had struggled with the symphonic form for many years before finally releasing this monumental work that has since become a cornerstone of the symphonic repertoire. It took him 14 years to complete and premiered in 1876. The reviews were mixed and it is only later that it has been recognized as the masterpiece it is.
