 Sarasota Opera House, Sarasota, FLA Celebratory Finale Sarasota Music Festival |
|
 | ||
| Sarasota Opera House, Sarasota, FL, Sarasota, FL, United States Saturday 22-Jun-13 08:00pm A Celebratory Finale Making his Festival debut, conductor Nicholas McGegan’s infectious joy will transport you into these three vibrant pieces. Handel’s masterpiece is among the most popular Baroque works. You’ll enjoy its stately elegance and effusive cheer. Mozart himself described his Concerto No. 16 as music “to make the performer sweat.” As one of America’s preeminent performers of Mozart’s music, Robert Levin is the ultimate pianist to truly showcase this great work. Our Festival season ends in stormy Scotland, with a robust symphony by Mendelssohn. Inspired by the landscape and ruins of Scotland, this is a work justifiably beloved by generations and an impressive finale for the 49th Sarasota Music Festival. | ||

| St Martin-in-the-Fields, London, London, United Kingdom Saturday 6-Jul-13 07:45pm Mozart and Handel LORRAINE McASLAN trained in London and at the Juilliard School in New York. Her European debut with the Bern Symphony Orchestra was broadcast live on Swiss Radio. “The Strad” magazine has called her “One of the most distinguished British violinists of her generation.” Her recording career began with sonatas by Elgar and Walton for A.S.V. Then came a highly praised Britten Concerto with the English Chamber Orchestra and Steuart Bedford, several sonata discs and recently Holst’s Song of the Night with the London Philharmonic Orchestra. Her recently released performance of the York Bowen violin concerto with the BBC Concert Orchestra on the Dutton label has received extensive critical praise. She plays “Spring” from Vivaldi’s Four Seasons on London Octave’s CD “Better Baroque”.
LONDON OCTAVE was founded by cellist Dietrich Bethge in 1988 from London's leading musicians, London Octave aims to approach the baroque and classical repertoire in a fresh and vital manner, often without a conductor, but principally for the players’ own enjoyment and the enjoyment of the audience. Through their regular London season at St Martin-in-the-Fields, the South Bank and on BBC Radio 3, London Octave has attracted a loyal following of concert goers who appreciate their vitality and virtuosity. This, coupled with their programmes based on major and accessible works, has established them as one of the leading chamber orchestras in Britain. The members, many of whom have distinguished individual careers, frequently take turns as soloists and leading musicians are often invited to work with the ensemble. During recent seasons, artists include John Lill, Nick van Bloss,William Bennett, Crispian Steele Perkins, Lorraine McAslan, Yvgeny Sudbin, James Bowman, The Tallis Chamber Choir. Dutton recently released a new CD by London Octave (conductor Kypros Markou) featuring works by the early 20th century American composers A.Foote and V.Herbert.

|
 | ||
| Barbican Centre: Hall, London, Silk Street, London EC2Y 8DS, United Kingdom Wednesday 7-May-14 07:30pm Lezhneva sings Handel The murmuring excitement surrounding Russian soprano Julia Lezhneva reached a crescendo last year as she was hailed as a successor to her compatriot Anna Netrebko and promptly signed to recording giant Decca. Here Lezhneva brings her astounding agility, her rock-solid technique and her trademark lightness and power to Italian arias by Handel, works in which the composer’s love for the linguistic and emotional feeling of Italian texts is as palpable as it is stunning. Lezhneva is joined by Giovanni Antonini and his specialist ensemble Il Giardino Armonico for a solo debut at the Barbican which should not be missed. Tickets: £15-45 Handel, George Frideric (1685-1759), Il trionfo del Tempo e del Disinganno: Un pensiero nemico di pace Handel, George Frideric (1685-1759), Il trionfo del Tempo e del Disinganno, HWV 46a: Lascia la spina | ||
