Tampere Philharmonic Orchestra: French Colors
16.2.2024
19.00 - 20.45
Tampere Hall, Yliopistonkatu 55, 33100 Tampere
Tero Ahonen
Matthew Halls, conductor
Angela Hewitt, piano
Women's choir of the Tampere Philharmonic Choir
Olivier Messiaen: Les Offrandes Oubliées
Maurice Ravel: Piano Concerto in G major
Claude Debussy: Nocturnes
The turn of the 20th century and the early decades was the golden age of French music. The richly shimmering orchestral colours, airy chords, mystical orient and foggy landscapes were inspired by the impressionist painters. Details were left to the imagination, exemplified by Claude Debussy's Nocturnes, a play of light and shadow, and Olivier Messiaen's spiritual early work Les Offrandes Oubliées. Acclaimed for her elegant interpretations, Angela Hewitt is the soloist in Maurice Ravel's concerto, which draws on the joys of jazz.
The concert is part of the orchestra's subscriber series, which includes a Pre-concert talk (Teokset tutuiksi) at 6 p.m. and childcare (Lapsiparkki, 10 €) at 6:45 p.m.
The concert has an intermission. The concert ends around 8:45 p.m.
Tickets: Adults 30 € / pensioners 24 € / students, unemployed and conscripts 15 € / children under 17 years 10 €. You can buy tickets from the Tampere Hall ticket office, Aplodi and the Lippupiste online store (Lippupiste adds service fees and possible shipping fees to ticket prices).
