New Worlds
Bournemouth Symphony Orchestra conducted by Kirill Karabits - Beacon Hall
Program Info: Bournemouth Symphony Orchestra Kirill Karabits Conductor Liya Petrova Violin
Dvořák’s homesick postcard home ‘From the New World’ jostles in a world of the American dream with Korngold’s lush, technicolour concerto.
In his Violin Concerto, Korngold reworked themes from several of his film scores. Full and romantic, the music certainly brings to mind the swashbuckling films of the period. With its full-throated lyricism and unbridled virtuosity, the main theme develops in freely rhapsodic fashion, embellished with pyrotechnic passagework that ascends into the stratosphere.
Remaining incredibly fresh and abounding with memorable melodies, the Ninth Symphony describes Dvořák’s spiritual and emotional journey from his intense longing for his beloved Bohemia to the thrill of the ‘New World’ and its varied peoples.
Gara Karayev forged his own distinctive use of native Azerbaijani folk music. The ballet The Seven Beauties brims with an exotic array of appealing rhythms and melodies.
Programme Gara Karayev - The Seven Beauties Suite Erich Wolfgang Korngold - Violin Concerto, the concerto has themes from the scores for the movies ANOTHER DAWN (1937), ANTHONY ADVERSE (1936) & THE PRINCE AND THE PAUPER (1937) Antonín Dvořák - Symphony No.9 ‘From the New World’
