Ernő von Dohnányi moved from his native Prešpork to America in 1925-1927 after his studies and long-term work in Budapest. The chief conductor of the New York State Orchestra built friendships here, as demonstrated by his dedication of the Second Violin Concerto to the American violinist Frances Magnes. The premiere of this concerto took place in 1951 at Carnegie Hall. The piece was created during Dohnányi’s residency at the University of Florida in Tallahassee, where the composer sought shelter after being repeatedly and unjustifiably accused of sympathizing with fascism. On this current concert, the renowned Slovak violinist Milan Paľa will showcase a more traditional violin piece to the Bratislava audience. The seventh symphony was composed during a relatively challenging period in the life of the Czech composer Antonín Dvořák. In his personal life he experienced pain over the loss of his closest people, a situation was further aggravated by the unfavorable social situation in Bohemia. Alongside the reverberations of a family tragedy, this symphony incorporates essential patriotic notes in the fight against the Habsburgs. Thanks to the overall concept, profound content, and expertly executed formal structure, the Seventh Symphony belongs to the pinnacle of Dvořák’s work and to the pinnacle of the post-Beethoven development of the symphonic genre.

Z rodného Prešporku sa po štúdiách a dlhoročnom pôsobení v Budapešti presídlil Ernő von Dohnányi v rokoch 1925 – 1927 do Ameriky. Šéfdirigent Štátneho orchestra New York si tu vybudoval priateľstvá, čoho dôkazom je i venovanie jeho Druhého husľového koncertu americkej huslistke Frances Magnes, premiéra zaznela v roku 1951 v Carnegie Hall. Dielo vzniklo počas Dohnányiho rezidencie na Floridskej univerzite v Tallahassee, kam sa skladateľ uchýlil po mnohonásobnom a neoprávnenom obviňovaní zo sympatizovania s fašizmom. Bratislavskému publiku sa dobre známy slovenský huslista Milan Paľa tentokrát predstaví tradičnejším husľovým dielom. Siedma symfónia vznikala v pomerne ťaživom životnom období českého skladateľa Antonína Dvořáka. V osobnom živote zažíval bôľ nad stratou najbližších osôb, ktorý ešte prehlbovala neprajná spoločenská situácia v Čechách. Okrem dozvukov rodinnej tragédie sa v nej objavujú patriotické tóny potrebné v boji proti Habsburgovcom. Vďaka celkovej koncepcii, hlbokému obsahu a majstrovskému formálnemu spracovaniu patrí Siedma symfónia k vrcholom Dvořákovej tvorby i k vrcholu pobeethovenovského vývoja symfonického žánru.
