Valses nobles et sentimentales

Bacchus et Ariane, Suite No. 2, op 43

Approved

With Don Juan in the lead and Bacchus, the god of ecstasy, as a backing troupe, a musical blaze of bewitching tones, lusty sound and raw soloist talent is performed.
Welcome to the most colorful concert of the season! Intoxication and ecstasy, colors and falling in love: with Ravel, Roussel, Strauss and Nielsen we get it all.

In the story of Ariadne's seduction, we encounter a sumptuous orgy of sparkling orchestral sound. Roussel's music is an ecstatic back channel when the lustful Bacchus enthralls both Ariadne and the audience.

Ravel was also in love – with the waltz! Ravel's journey into the world of waltzes is completely irresistible; Valses nobles et sentimentales shows off the large orchestra at its most brilliant. Strauss does the same in Don Juan: this tone poem unfolds the sound world of the symphony orchestra in all its splendor.

Finally, we get to hear one of the world's best young soloists when Alberto Navarra – the winner of the Carl Nielsen competition 2022 – plays Nielsen's flute concerto.

English

Med Don Juan i front og ekstasens gud Bacchus som bagtrop opføres et musikalsk svir af besnærende toner, kåde klange og råt solisttalent.
Velkommen til sæsonens mest farverige koncert! Rus og ekstase, farver og forelskelse: Hos Ravel, Roussel, Strauss og Nielsen får vi det hele.

I fortællingen om Ariadnes forførelse møder vi et overdådigt orgie af gnistrende orkesterklange. Roussels musik er et ekstatisk bakkanal, når den kåde Bacchus besnærer både Ariadne og publikum.

Også Ravel var forelsket – i valsen! Ravels rejse ind i valsenes verden er helt uimodståelig; Valses nobles et sentimentales viser det store orkester frem på sin allermest strålende facon. Det samme gør Strauss i Don Juan: Dette tonedigt folder symfoniorkestrets klangverden ud i al sin pragt.

Endelig får vi lov at høre en af verdens bedste unge solister, når Alberto Navarra – vinderen af Carl Nielsen-konkurrencen 2022 – spiller Nielsens fløjtekoncert.
