Orchestre de chambre de Paris, Vadym Kholodenko at Théâtre des Champs-Élysées, Paris
A nostalgic, raw classical night.
A Schumann festival featuring conductor Riccardo Minasi and pianist Vadym Kholodenko. Written just months apart, Schumann's Piano Concerto and Symphony No. 2 offer a vibrant portrait of a composer strengthened by love. The program is dedicated to the most romantic of romantics. The Piano Concerto can be heard as another declaration to Clara, his wife since 1840. Her figure shines particularly in the first movement, crossing paths with Eusebius, Schumann’s poetic and reserved musical double. Encoded messages also permeate the Symphony No. 2, written between two depressive periods, which explains its darker character. The work absorbs autobiographical elements while the saving figure of Clara haunts the score.
