$Alina Ibragimova Plays Mozart\u2019s Third Violin Concerto$

With the ability to “collapse any sense of distance between performer and listener” (“The Guardian”), world-renowned violinist Alina Ibragimova returns to the Ordway to lead the SPCO on a journey through lighthearted, spirited works by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, Joseph Haydn and those they inspired. Alfred Schnittke’s “Moz-Art à la Haydn” is an out-of-the-box take on an unfinished musical fragment by Mozart, written in the humorous spirit of the two titular composers known for their humor. With a ghostly “fun house atmosphere” (“New York Times”) full of musical quotations, the work involves dueling violinists, lighting effects, and an ending reminiscent of Haydn’s “Farewell” Symphony — hang on tight for this program full of whimsy à la Mozart!
We are deeply grateful for a generous bequest from The Robinson Family that helped make this performance possible. To learn how you can make music possible by supporting the SPCO in your will or estate plan, please contact Erin VanBurkleo at [email protected] or 651.292.3275.
