Ivan Repušik and the Rundfunk-Sinfonieorchester Berlin to kidnap, as it is so fond of her audience in nicer climes, in this case, after Istria. As an introduction to a concert in the evening, with the fearsome “Symphonie fantastique” by Hector Berlioz, it is wonderfully orchestrated, formal shiny balanced “Istarska suita” by the Croatian composer Natko devčić.
So it goes downright relaxing in the Phiharmonie, with the spherical sounds of a then pending “Prelude”, the finely crafted spring dance “Poskomnica” (long Repušics shows mastery of the console, the Rest In-itself, to be more precise, access to the orchestra). Then the 1914-born composer “cradle song”, sung about a ‘ harmonised underground of string sounds, and finally a Finale in which a real Ostinato in the bass pushes the orchestral apparatus, as it were, from below.
In all the dimensions of this concert obeys part of the good rules of a classic program. Most of all, he agrees with the expectation of glad for the appearance of John Moser, which is currently a house guest of the RSB, in the marketing of German “Artist in focus”. Moser takes the Solo part in William Walton’s cello Concerto. And how he plays now, with no tacky bits or romantic hum, with a quiet Verve the many Cadenza-like inlet, is the reason enough to look forward to the other Berlin performances of the cellist in the coming weeks. Only the sugar sweet trill, and the orchestra does not approve of him overwhelmingly strong as in the classical solo Concerto, but with a slightly more rippling sound… For the addition of is Moser in the cello group, not without the well-staffed hall for chamber music evening on the 9th. May into the cooling house invite.
the “Symphonie fantastique Missing only”: Repušics friendly manner is your first, especially since the wind play wonderful Solo. After some time, but one wishes more Maliziösität, because the Croatian conductor, currently music Director in Hannover and for the past few years, chief of the Munich radio orchestra, and may even tarnish in the last two sets, no water.
The “dies irae”. his blasphemous rule of law long ago
abandoned Hector Berlioz Had imagined the execution of his musical heroes, and him last in the ghastly dream of a Walpurgis sent night, so now the only sound in well-kept symphonic music With a “dies irae”, has abandoned his blasphemous rule of law is long, and quite in the aseptic rich orchestral motif-inventories is applied.
