    Booklet

    This season marks the third appearance of our principal conductor, Diego Ceretta. At the heart of the program is one of the most iconic concertos of German Romanticism, Robert Schumann‘s Piano Concerto. The composer described it as “something halfway between a symphony, a concerto, and a grand sonata,” aiming to merge the piano and the orchestra in a new way, where the soloist is perfectly integrated with the other instruments, rejecting the virtuosic exhibitionism typical of past concertos. The soloist is Federico Colli, an internationally renowned pianist in his thirties and forties generation, known for his intentionally unconventional interpretations and his philosophical approach to music-making.
    The second half of the program presents two different faces of the 20th century. One looks back to the Vienna of Haydn and Mozart: this is Sergei Prokofiev’s Classical Symphony, composed around the time of the October Revolution. The other is Arnold Schoenberg’s Chamber Symphony No. 2, by the father of twelve-tone composition, a hyper-mathematical writing method which, however, does not appear in this work. It was begun in the Expressionist Vienna of the early 20th century, left unfinished for a long time, and later completed in the late 1930s in the United States, where the Jewish-born composer had emigrated to escape Nazism.
