A CONTRASTING PROGRAM IN THIS LAST CONCERT OF THE CSM CHAMBER ORCHESTRA OF MÁLAGA
Next Friday, April 28 at 7:00 p.m. at the Falla Room of the Málaga Superior Conservatory of Music , the Chamber Orchestra of this center, under the direction of Juan Paulo Gómez will offer a concert dedicated to the composers Jacques Ibert and Ludwig van Beethoven . This concert is part of the ceremony to award the scholarship for the best academic record of the past academic year 22/23 that the Malaga Musical Foundation awards each year to one of the center's students, this year being awarded to the guitarist María Simón Villegas. Likewise, it will be the last concert that this group performs during the current 2022-2023 academic year.
The repertoire will be configured by the Concertino da camera for alto saxophone and orchestra by the French composer Jacques Ibert (1890 - 1962), in which the student Javier Janeiro Sánchez , winner of the XVII Soloist Competition of the CSM of Málaga, will act as soloist: Orchestra Category de Cámara, 2023. The work is a small concerto for alto saxophone and a small group of instruments: flute, bassoon, oboe, French horn, trumpet and strings. This concertino is conceived in two movements: Allegro con moto and Larghetto - Animato Molto, which was dedicated to the saxophonist Sigurd Rascher (1907 - 2001), showing an alternation between technically challenging passages and others of great musical lyricism.
Next, the orchestra will perform Symphony No. 2 in D Major, Op. 36 by the German composer Ludwig van Beethoven (1770-1827), a work written by a young Beethoven of 31 years and dedicated, like many of his other works, to his great patron Karl Alois, second prince Lichnowsky and chamberlain at the Austrian imperial court. The work, structured in the usual four movements of the classical symphony, premiered at the Theater an der Wien in Vienna on April 5, 1803, being conducted by the composer himself. It is considered one of the last works of Beethoven's so-called "early style" or "first style."
As is usual in the different concerts organized by the conservatory, access is free for the public, and is controlled until the permitted capacity is reached.
