CAPESTANG
Wagner’s Sigfried-Idyll opens this concert as a gift to his wife Cosima, blending pastoral tenderness with miniature Wagnerian leitmotifs. An intimate dialogue woven by horns and woodwinds already imbued with nostalgia. In his Serenade Op. 44, a spontaneous gem straight out of Czech folklore, Dvo?ák alternates joyful village dances with more nostalgic melodies. They showcase bassoons and oboes with a subtle art of counterpoint. As for Brahms, his Serenade No. 1 marks his symphonic debut, and unfolds its classical architecture refreshed by romantic colors. A sensitive tribute to instruments that sing, dialogue and dance.
