Mahler : Symphonie n° 1 'Titan' (en anglais)
Rome, Auditorium Parco della Musica — Sala Santa Cecilia
A propos du spectacle
Harding inaugure son cycle complet des symphonies de Mahler avec ces concerts, promettant de les présenter en succession saisonnière. Il commence par l'emblématique première symphonie "Le Titan" et, fait curieux, inclut le mouvement Blumine, que Mahler lui‐même a supprimé par la suite.
À Santa Cecilia, où il occupe le poste d'artiste en résidence, Joshua Bell livre une interprétation émouvante du concerto pour violon de Dvořák. Connu pour sa profondeur émotionnelle, sa riche beauté lyrique, ses harmoniques créatives et ses idées nuancées, ce morceau figure parmi les œuvres célèbres de Dvořák, telles que la Symphonie du "Nouveau Monde" et le Concerto pour violoncelle.

Auditorium Parco della Musica
Auditorium Parco della Musica is a music complex consisting of an outdoor theatre in a park setting and three indoor concert halls. Situated in Rome´s ancient city centre, where the Olympic Games were held in 1960, the complex is home to the famed Accademia Nazionale di Santa Cecilia. Designed by talented architects Franco Zagari, Renzo Piano, and Jürgen Reinhold, the complex has played a central role in Italian cultural life since its inauguration in 2002. The complex has an extensive program of chamber music concerts as well as pop, rock, jazz, theatrical and literary performances, cinema and art exhibitions.
Antonín Dvořák
Antonin Dvorak is considered to be one of the most well-known and prominent Czechs in the world, as his musical work gained international recognition already during his lifetime. He was born in 1841 in a small Czech village into a butcher’s family. At the age of 6, Dvorak started taking violin lessons and it immediately became obvious that the boy had exceptional talent in music. Later in life, he was learning to master piano and organ as well as simultaneously working in a slaughterhouse. After Dvorak turned 16, he was admitted to the Organ School in Prague that trained future professional composers. After graduating, he stayed in Prague, joined Karel Komzak’s orchestra and started actively composing his own music. However, he struggled to make ends meet and always had to work on the side by playing music in churches and giving private music lessons. Finally, 1874 became a turning point in his life when he won a financial grant from an Austrian Prize competition for his 15 submitted works. This allowed him to quit the orchestra and devote himself fully to composing. During this period, he wrote his Slavonic Dances, Moravian Duets and Violin Concerto, which brought him sweeping success. In 1892 he was invited to teach at the New York National Conservatory, where he stayed until 1895 before returning home. He started teaching at the Prague conservatory and later became its director. Until his death in 1904, he had been a successful and well-loved composer, both in his homeland and around the whole world.
