Great performances from the great concert venues, 7 to 9 pm Monday thru Thursday, and Sunday, on WILL-FM.
Music tonight by Franck, Chausson, Prokofiev, and Julian Anderson.
Mahler's "Das Klagende Lied" is less often heard because of the forces required to perform it: vocal soloists, chorus and orchestra.
Let's thank Felix Mendelssohn and Joseph Joachim for presenting Beethoven's "Violin Concerto" in 1844 following decades where it wasn't played at all...so we could have it today.
Plus, Rachmaninoff's "Isle of the Dead" and Corigliano's "One Sweet Morning"...from Shanghai
"The Isle of the Dead", the "Violin Concerto in D", and the "7th Symphony" among other works by the composers mentioned above.
Tonight it's later-career chamber music by Mozart, the Wind Serenade, K.388 and the Piano Quintet, K. 478, and "Mack the Knife on Broadway".
Ax solos with the New York Philharmonic led by Alan Gilbert.
From Dallas, Daniel Muller-Schott is the soloist in Dvorak's "Cello Concerto".
While not as popular as the other Mahler symphonies, the 7th is asonic journey equal to the others.
It took Mendelssohn six years to complete. Do you think it took Christian Tetzlaff six years to learn to play Mendelssohn's "Violin Concerto"? Perhaps. The answer depends on what age he started to learn the work.
