AVROTROS Friday concert: Classic Top 400
Radio Filharmonisch Orkest conducted by Harry Ogg - Tivoli/Vredenburg
Program Info: Radio Philharmonic Orchestra National Mixed Youth Choir Harry Ogg, conductor
There is no better pastime than bickering about charts and top ten rankings. Pop music fans have the Top 2000, classical connoisseurs choose their Top 400 from NPO Klassiek. The votes have been counted and everyone is eagerly looking forward to the number 1, the notable climbers and the newcomers. The Radio Philharmonic Orchestra plays a generous selection from this wonderfully colourful mosaic of music.
The Classic Top 400 list offers endless fodder for discussion. In 2023, Bach's indestructible St. Matthew Passion stood proudly at the top, closely followed by Mozart's Requiem . Will Bach and Mozart maintain their permanent positions, or are there shifts at the top? It is not only baroque, classical and romantic that reigns supreme in the Top 400. In recent years there has been more and more room for contemporary music and popular film scores.
The Radio Philharmonic Orchestra and conductor Harry Ogg make a lively selection from the wide panorama of the Classical Top 400. The concert evening unfolds as one big celebration of recognition and discovery: from classical hit music that you would like to hear live to surprising chart toppers and symphonic surprises.
