For this third concert dedicated to Maestro Gidon Kremer, Kremerata Baltica juxtaposes all the poetry and unpredictability of the music of Mozart with the warm lyricism of British minimalist composer Michael Nyman and the humour of Russian composer Alexan
Set alongside Adagio and Fugue K. 546, the piece 5 minutes avec W.A.M. (2000) draws the listener into a world of dreamlike quotes punctuated by subtle, humorous and offbeat playing techniques. More introspective, Michael Nyman’s Trysting Fields unfolds with a repetitive and hypnotic style, revealing a contemporary and poetic vision of Mozart’s legacy. At the center of the program, Chopin’s Piano Concerto No. 1 unfolds with expansive, virtuosic lyricism, where nascent Romantic sensibility further extends classical elegance. The evening concludes with the Serenata notturna, a festive and sparkling work by a Mozart barely eighteen years old.
