It was with Beethoven’s ‘Emperor’ Concerto that Italian pianist Federico Colli scooped the prestigious Leeds International Piano Competition, proving to be an exciting talent. That was in 2012 and, since then, he’s made a name for himself as a highly original and innovative pianist. Expect a spirited and fresh performance from this charismatic musician of a work whose nobility and grandeur never fail to impress.
Brahms also brings electrifying power and drama to his Fourth Symphony, along with much warmth and beauty too. From the lilting opening theme, through the hushed slow movement, to the inventive finale in which he cleverly weaves 30 variations from an eight-note theme of Bach, Brahms holds you enrapt from the first note to the last.
Opening with Weber’s highly-charged operatic overture, the master musicians of the Nuremberg Symphony Orchestra have this music coursing through their veins. At the Nuremberg Meistersingerhalle, they welcome around 200,000 people a year to their 100 or so concerts where they focus their expertise on just such cornerstones of the classical-romantic repertoire as this, and much more besides.
