Abstract

Johannes Brahms only achieved his breakthrough as a symphonist late in life. After years of struggling with the form of the symphony, which Ludwig van Beethoven had apparently moulded to perfection, he published his Symphony No. 1 in C minor at the age of 43, which is now part of the core of the Romantic concert repertoire. Our General Music Director Gianandrea Noseda, who has a particular fondness for the works of Johannes Brahms, will conduct Brahms' «First» in the 3rd Philharmonic Concert. He has also invited Macedonian pianist Simon Trpčeski as a soloist, with whom he recently performed very successfully at London's Barbican Hall. Trpčeski will play the Piano Concerto in A minor by the Norwegian Brahms contemporary Edvard Grieg.
