In three short concerts, we show how versatile classical music can be. Jess Gillam takes center stage, a musician who makes the saxophone shine like no other. Her energy and enthusiasm for music are absolutely infectious - even if you are not familiar with classical concerts.
The soprano saxophone that Jess Gillam plays is a rather unusual instrument in the concert hall. However, in the pieces we present to you today, she shows how diverse and moving it can sound: sometimes lyrical and gentle, sometimes full of power and tension.
You will also hear excerpts from Antonín Dvořák's Seventh Symphony. This music tells of deep emotions - longing, pride, and joy. Dvořák composed it with so much heart that it is hard to resist.
