About the Concert
"The time, it is a peculiar thing," that is perhaps the most well-known line from the opera "Der Rosenkavalier" by Richard Strauss. Perhaps because it is so true and we all occasionally ponder the mysterious passing of time. This can also be seen in this concert, which features excerpts from this opera and from "Die Frau ohne Schatten" on the program. Mozart was certainly ahead of his time when he wrote his famous Symphony No. 201. With it, he freed himself from his "father figure" Joseph Haydn and found his own style. On the other hand, his 26th piano concerto puts us in a festive mood, it is also known as the "Coronation Concerto" and is composed in a very "classical" style, it was meant to uplift the audience during the coronation of Leopold II in 1790.Contributer
