** Please see below for information in English **Konsertkvelden byr på en ren treretters fransk meny, som innledes med en smakebit fra for oss ukjente Louise Farrenc, og fortsetter med Camille Saint- Saëns’ populære pianokonsert og Hector Berlioz’ udødelige musikalske eventyrfortelling.
Kveldens dirigent og solist medvirker sammen med Bergen Filharmoniske Orkester for første gang. Anja Bihlmaier kommer fra Tyskland og er sjefdirigent for Residentie Orkest i Nederland. Mao Fujita er 25 år gammel og kommer fra Japan. Hun fikk sølvmedalje i den viktige Tsjaikovskij-konkurransen i 2019 og har på kort tid gjort seg bemerket internasjonalt.

*********************
Anja Bihlmaier leads the Bergen Philharmonic Orchestra in this symphonic Tour De France, arriving at a musical work like none other.
The landscape of French music changed permanently in 1827, when Hector Berlioz fell head-over-heels in love with an Irish actress and set out to prove his love for her in music. Berlioz’s Symphonie fantastique didn’t just regale its listeners with all the torture, urgency and heroism of his love for the actress, it set a new course for music in France, urging other composers to invest their works with passion, humour, spirit and pride.
All that was felt by the French composers who followed, among them the child prodigy Saint-Saëns who filled his Piano Concerto No. 2 with everything from Bach to Offenbach - not forgetting its wild ‘tarantella’ finale. Winner of the Clara Haskil Competition, Mao Fujita, plays Saint-Saëns’s most popular concerto here after Louise Farrenc’s vivacious Overture No. 2, a work partly inspired by Berlioz’s impassioned symphony.
