Jan Václav Hugo Voříšek: Symphony in D major
The court theatre entrepreneur Baron Braun approached Beethoven with an offer to compose music for the ballet The Creatures of Prometheus based on a theme by the then famous Italian choreographer Salvatore Viganò. The overture to the ballet The Creatures of Prometheus was composed in 1800, i.e. even earlier than the better-known Egmont, Leonores Nos. 1–3, Coriolanus, and others.
The Concerto for Piano and Orchestra in A minor is one of the most performed compositions not only by Grieg, but also of Norwegian music as a whole. The three-movement composition attracts attention with its original Nordic melodies and harmonies, and Grieg projected elements of village folklore into it.
Jan Václav Hugo Voříšek was one of the most important representatives of Czech Classicism and at the same time anticipated the arrival of the Romantic style in his work. Symphony in D major was written in 1821 and soon earned the respect of Beethoven himself, to whose early works it is often compared. Although it can be considered somewhat outdated in some respects, we also find passages that point forward towards Early Romanticism.
The Prague Chamber Orchestra (PKO) is one of the four oldest chamber orchestras in Europe. It was founded in 1951 and its history has never been interrupted since then. It stands out as an orchestra of the so-called Mozart cast (34 musicians), which is able to perform without a conductor. Other than its European tours, it has completed ten tours of South America, sixteen in the USA and Canada and nine in Japan.
Adam Gutseriev was born in 2005 and is a student at the Kalaidos Musikhochschule in Berlin. He started his musical career at the age of 5. When he was 11 he won the 7th AMIGDALA International Contest of Young Pianists (Italy). He is a multi-winner and laureate of prestigious international contests. Adam Gutseriev regularly goes on tours and performs in France, Italy, Belgium, Latvia and other countries.
Emmanuel Plasson has established himself as a leading ambassador for French music through his remarkable international career spanning both the symphonic and operatic worlds. He won the Donatella Flick International Conducting Competition in 1994. Soon after, he was invited as Assistant Conductor of the Metropolitan Opera in New York for two seasons. Maestro Plasson was principal conductor and artistic director of Hawaii Opera Theatre until April 2020. 2022 marked a new milestone in his career when he performed at the Landesgartenschau Beelitz with his own chamber orchestra: Orchester Voyager. He has performed all around the globe with ensembles such as the BBC Philharmonic Orchestra, New York Opera Society, Royal Ballet at Covent Garden, Melbourne Opera, Nagoya Philharmonic Orchestra, Royal Swedish Opera, Royal Danish Opera and the Orchestre de la Suisse Romande.
