To those who want to fantasize about the musical forms the most superb, to those who look for the dimensions of listening out of fashion, to those who have plans to create in the mind images triggered by diving into the deep universe of sound, we recommend three occasions to the end (and beginning) of the year to reach without moving from home. There is the new year’s Concert in Vienna, to begin with. You can consider it indispensable for the quality crazy of the orchestra, the Wiener Philharmoniker, to the splendor of the environment that welcomes him, the golden hall of the Musikeverein, and for the aura of ritual rooted and solid like a great banner of the european cultural history. This year’s guide to the concert, viennese maestro Latvian Andris Nelsons, who has taken a new decision and already heralded as “shocking” by the traditionalist spirit of austria: the abolition of the famous “Radetzky March” in the usual arrangement, accompanied by the rhythmic clapping of the audience. For decades we listen to that version, which was formulated during the nazi period. Originally was Johann Strauss-father to compose the march, written in honour of field marshal Johann Joseph Wenzel, count Radetzky, who had won the First War of Independence in lombardy-veneto, defended by the troops of savoy. Many years after the piece was rearranged in the edition of jaunty and almost-pop that we all know by Leopold Weninger, the composer, writing to the nazi party German. For this reason, today, Nelsons was born in Riga in 1978, he decided to propose another quite differently. The first violin of the Wiener, Daniel Froschauer, describes it as “free from the shadows of the past”, adding that Weninger “had made the track similar to a military march, to help the nazis to gain popularity”. Spread worldwide in ninety Countries, and followed by 40 million viewers in the world, the concert is more characteristic of Vienna will be broadcast in Italy on the first of January to the 13 and 30 on rai-2 and repeated at 21 and 15 on Rai5. The lineup includes waltz, galop, and marches of the Strauss, to which is added the country dance by Beethoven and pages of authors less known as Ziehrer and Suppé.
another wonderful city that celebrates musically, the new year is Venice, where the celebration starts on the 29th of December with the first of the four concerts (the last falls on the first of January) entrusted to the direction of the Korean Myung-Whun Chung. On the podium of the orchestra and chorus of The Teatro la Fenice, Chung will be joined by soloists such as the soprano, Francesca Dotto, the tenor Francesco Demuro, the baritone Luca Salsi and the alto Valeria Girardello. The program is divided into two parts: the first will be performed the Eighth Symphony by Antonín Dvo?ák, while the second, opened by the Sanctus, taken from the “Requiem” by Verdi includes arias, duets and passages in the choral clipped from the operatic repertoire (pages puccini and verdi super-popular, most pieces of Nino Rota, and of Jacques Offenbach). Rai Cultura will broadcast the second part of the recitation of the first of January live at the 12 and 20 on RaiUno and recorded at 18: 30 on Rai5. The concert of venice will then be aired in full on the first of January to the 20 and 30 on Radio 3 and on February 20, 2020 to 21 and 15 on Rai5. In addition, through the collaboration with Arte and wdr, the event will be visible live in many european Countries, including France and Germany, and in Korea thanks to the presence of Chung.
Not to be given up, for the fans of the music’s most prestigious, is finally the new year’s Eve Concert in Berlin, which has three replicas: on December 29th at 20, 30 at the same time and the 31 to 17 and 15. Here they take the pitch the Berliner Philharmoniker, as say the Ferrari among the european orchestras, which will play inside the hall the illustrious of the Philharmonie, in the heart of the German capital. For the first time the concert of the new year (even in Berlin, as at Vienna, the appointment is fixed) will be led by the Russian master (and naturalized austrian) Kirill Petrenko, formidable musician as well as the newly-elected “Conductor” on the permanent staff of the team from berlin. This time Petrenko, who many believe is currently the number one of the planet among the samples of the podium, will count on the participation of a soprano of very high level, the German Diana Damrau, the diva of international opera. Next she will present an unusual repertoire for two interpreters, of robust appearance classic such as Petrenko, and Damrau. It is more a question of american music and songs from the great Broadway musical, signed by authors such as George Gershwin, Leonard Bernstein, and Stephen Sondheim.
