VARGA AND POWER

2023-10-20T15:00:00Z – 2023-10-20T18:00:00Z

Description

The Maestro series will start in October, under the direction of Conductor Gilbert Varga, whose previous performance with ERSO achieved great success in February 2022. Varga’s strengths include his elegant conducting technique and a deep sense of dynamics and texture, which allows him to bring out the most subtle nuances in the orchestra. This time, the audience will have a rare opportunity to hear, under Varga’s direction, Arnold Schönberg’s Verklärte Nacht as originally composed for string sextet.

The soloist of the concert will be British viola player Lawrence Power, who will be performing Béla Bartók’s Viola Concerto. Power is one of the most admired violists in the world today, having performed with a formidable list of orchestras, conductors, and chamber musicians. He is admired for his rich tone and technical mastery. Power is also passionate about contemporary music, having performed many new compositions by contemporary composers, including Erkki-Sven Tüür.
