Mozart - Strauss Evening with the Frankfurt Radio Symphony
Third evening with Alain Altinoglu and the Frankfurt Radio Orchestra for a programme of Mozart and Strauss.
Richard Strauss' dream was to be the Mozart of his time - the parallels between their operas are numerous! And the comparison does not stop at operas: in the world of the concerto too, Strauss was inspired by his genius. While the Salzburger's Oboe Concerto is a youthful work, Strauss composed his own at the very end of his long life (1945). It is therefore a work in a sense testamentary that Alain Altinoglu and François Leleux, undoubtedly one of the greatest oboists of our time, propose to rediscover this evening. As for Mozart's Marriage of Figaro (1786) and his famous Symphony No. 40 (1788), do we need to present them? These pages are now part of the world's musical heritage.
