| Luzerner Sinfonieorchester | |
| Michael Sanderling | Direction |
| Janine Jansen | Violon |
| Timothy Ridout | Alto |
With the most recent expansion of the orchestra, the Luzerner Sinfonieorchester has grown to a standard line-up of 14 first violins. This allows not only greater force in monumental works, but also stylistic agility – as this final concert of the season demonstrates.
At the beginning, the forces are reduced: Mozart’s Sinfonia concertante for violin and viola thrives on agile musical speech, elegance and chamber-like transparency. The orchestra opens a space for two solo instruments that embrace each other intimately in the slow movement like an operatic duet.
Janine Jansen and Timothy Ridout bring together two outstanding solo personalities. At the same time, the concert shows how the Luzerner Sinfonieorchester continues to expand its family of soloists: alongside the internationally celebrated violinist Janine Jansen stands Timothy Ridout, a former Rising Star of the orchestra.
After Mozart, the large, richly coloured Late Romantic orchestra takes the stage. Frederick Delius’ “The Walk to the Paradise Garden” opens a late-Impressionist soundscape; Prokofiev’s “Romeo and Juliet” leads into a world of love, conflict, movement and dramatic intensification. This concert thus brings central lines of the season to a close: classical clarity, strong soloists and vivid sound worlds of great emotional power.
