Ludwig van Beethoven: Symphony No. 7 in A major
Swedish Chamber Orchestra
Martin Fr枚st (conductor/clarinet)
Maverick clarinet virtuoso Martin Fr枚st 鈥� praised for his 鈥榰nsurpassed musicianship鈥� by The New York Times 鈥� explores the evolution of dance in a wide-ranging programme that contrasts the courtly with the rustic and climaxes in Beethoven鈥檚 Symphony No. 7: dance unleashed as never before. The courtly dances of Rameau and Handel give way to Bach鈥檚 contrapuntal invention and folk music鈥檚 instinctive pulse, transformed into something provocative and dynamic in works by contemporary Swedish composers Hans Ek and Jacob M眉hlrad.
