Under the baton of Jonathan Nott, the Orchestre de la Suisse Romande presents a program featuring two masterpieces of musical history. Renowned clarinetist Martin Fröst performs Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart’s celebrated Clarinet Concerto in A major, K. 622. Written just months before Mozart’s death, this sublime concerto showcases the instrument’s full expressive range, blending poignant lyricism with radiant vitality.
The second half of the program delves into the symphonic grandeur of Anton Bruckner with his Symphony No. 2 in C minor. Often referred to as the “Symphony of Peace,” this introspective work captures Bruckner’s spiritual depth and inner conflicts, shifting between serene passages and majestic orchestral climaxes.
The pairing of these two iconic works, brought to life by Martin Fröst and the prestigious OSR, provides an enthralling journey into the elegance and emotional depth of Austrian classical music.
