Jörg Widmann, whose works are frequently performed in concert halls around the world, is conductor and soloist in a concert featuring music by Mendelssohn and works of his own. The overture The Hebrides, composed in the same period as the Scottish Symphony, recreates the atmosphere of mystery that pervades these islands and Fingal’s Cave in particular.

Versuch über die Fuge, composed by Widmann in 2005, is written for soprano in addition to the oboe and the orchestral ensemble. As in the later adaptation of a Mendelssohn sonata for piano and clarinet, his favourite instrument, it showcases his versatility as a composer.

Despite the numbering, Symphony No. 5 “Reformation” was not the last composed by Mendelssohn. With a language anchored in the sensibility of his century, its use of counterpoint and Lutheran melodies represents a return to the balance of the classical past, with certain traces of the Baroque.

English

Jörg Widmann, uno de los compositores más programados en auditorios de todo el mundo, interviene como director y solista en un concierto centrado en obras de Mendelssohn y de creación propia. La obertura Las Hébridas, concebida en la misma época que la Sinfonía escocesa, recrea la atmósfera de misterio que envuelve a estas islas, concretamente la llamada Cueva de Fingal.

Versuch über die Fuge, compuesto por Widmann en 2005, requerirá la participación de una soprano, además del oboe y del conjunto orquestal. Como en la posterior adaptación de una sonata de Mendelssohn para piano y clarinete, su instrumento predilecto, podrá apreciarse la versatilidad de su actividad compositiva.

La Sinfonía nº 5 “de la Reforma” no fue, a pesar de su numeración, la última compuesta por Mendelssohn. Con un lenguaje anclado en la sensibilidad de su siglo, recupera el equilibrio del pasado clásico y ciertos ecos del Barroco, tanto por el contrapunto como por el uso de melodías luteranas.

Jörg Widmann, un dels compositors més programats en auditoris de tot el món, intervé com a director i solista en un concert centrat en obres de Mendelssohn i de creació pròpia. L’obertura Les Hèbrides, concebuda en la mateixa època que la Simfonia escocesa, recrea l’atmosfera de misteri que embarga aquestes illes, concretament l’anomenada Cova de Fingal. 

Versuch über die Fuge, compost per Widmann el 2005, requerirà la participació d’una soprano, a més de l’oboè i del conjunt orquestral.

La Simfonia n. 5 “de la Reforma” no va ser, malgrat la numeració, l’última composta per Mendelssohn. Amb un llenguatge ancorat en la sensibilitat del seu segle, recupera l’equilibri del passat clàssic i certs ressons del Barroc, tant pel contrapunt com per l’ús de melodies luteranes.
