B4 - Robert Jindra presents

ABOUT

April’s concert programme in the Bethlehem Chapel includes a wide variety of musical works that will attract chamber music lovers and fans of instrumental concerts.  The first part of the concert will feature the Concerto for Bassoon and Chamber Orchestra by the French composer Jean-Michel Jolivet. This will be followed by the Concertino for Clarinet and Chamber Orchestra by the Italian composer Ferruccio Busoni, whose work is characterised by its delicate melodies and sophisticated instrumentation. 

The third piece of the evening will be the Concerto Overture in G Major by Luigi Cherubini. In it, the orchestra will create varied colour and dynamic contrasts. The concert will close with Richard Strauss's virtuoso Duett-concertino for Clarinet and Bassoon, an engaging dialogue between the two solo instruments, supported by the chamber orchestra. 

The soloists will be the excellent Jan Hudeček (bassoon) and Johannes Schittler (clarinet), while the fresh and enticing programme with them and the Czech Radio Symphony Orchestra has been rehearsed and will be conducted by Robert Jindra.
