Les Arts és Simfònic continues to extend its presence in the Valencian Community. This season, the OCV, led by its chief conductor, James Gaffigan, visits the auditoriums of Cullera, Altea and Torrevieja. The orchestra performs for the first time the music that Richard Strauss devised for chamber orchestra on the satirical comedy Le Bourgeois gentilhomme by Molière and Lully. Dances, intermezzi, minuets, grouped in a suite, inspired in part by Lully’s original material, but with a neoclassical sonority and Strauss’s personal style. It is followed by Mozart’s Symphony 39, which already sheds light on a romantic character and serves as a prologue to the set of the last three symphonies (numbers 39, 40 and 41) of the Salzburg composer, considered the best corpus of symphonic music of the eighteenth century.

When the poet Lensky visits his fiancée Olga and brings along his mysterious friend Eugene Onegin, Olga’s introverted sister Tatyana is immediately hooked. But Onegin rejects her supplication. Years later, he meets her again, but now it is she who doesn’t want to hear his sudden pleas for love …It was with Eugene Onegin that Tchaikovsky achieved his breakthrough as an opera composer, making an unparalleled contribution to modern music theatre. With its opulent stage design, Barrie Kosky’s production captures the poetry of the characters and their tragedy, set in the vastness of a natural space. Supported by Tchaikovsky’s unforgettable music, Eugene Onegin is a ‘delicate psychogram of young people who are just learning for the first time what irreversible decisions truly mean’ [BR KLASSIK].

Barrie Kosky’s mystical and visually striking production sweeps the audience into the enigmatic world of fairy tales—and in doing so tells us more about our times than you’d think. After stops in Aix-en-Provence, Lyon, and Adelaide, his celebrated production can now be experienced at the Komische Oper Berlin.
Tsar Dodon is plagued by worries: his kingdom is threatened by enemies all around, his sons don’t have any sensible advice either, and he’d rather just eat and sleep instead of looking after his country. An astrologer enters the scene with just the right solution: a golden cockerel that crows and flaps if danger looms. Dodon is thrilled, especially since the astrologer declines to name his price for this precious talisman until later on. But then, when war really breaks out, the cockerel crows, and his sons seem to have been lost in action, Dodon has to go there in person—even if his armour doesn’t really fit after a lifetime of indulgence. Instead of the anticipated battlefield, he encounters the unimaginably beautiful Queen of Shemakha. When Dodon falls rapturously in love with her, the disastrous course is set …
Rimsky-Korsakov’s last piece of music theatre paints the magic of Pushkin’s dark fairy tale with a fantastic spectrum of sonic colours. Barrie Kosky translates these into images that are as poetic as they are mysterious, laying bare the innermost core of Rimsky-Korsakov’s fairy tale. Amusing, unsparing, and sensually shimmering in the blackest of night. ‘A great starry conjunction in the history of opera’ [ONLINE MERKER].

Schubert’s Symphony No. 4 , composed at the age of 19 and never premiered in his lifetime, exhibits the melodic and youthful brilliance that reigns in the composer’s Lieder , in the shadow of the symphonic scaffolding erected by Mozart and Haydn, but also under the influence Beethoven’s drama. Nor was Bruckner able to see the premiere of the Ninth Symphony . Despite being unfinished, in three movements, it is appreciated as one of the greatest orchestral scores of all time. He evokes themes from his previous compositions as a reminder, and in the famous final Adagio, deeply inspired, he seems to want to conclude the monumental work as if it were his farewell to life.

Children’s Concert
Sunday morning, 11 a.m. An expectant buzz in the hall. The doors close shut, the curtain rises. Enter Robin Poell, the singing and dancing stagehand! Together with the orchestra of the Komische Oper Berlin, he conjures up an always child-friendly but never simplistic concert experience for children aged 4 and up as well as their families! On weekdays also for daycare groups and school classes. We’re looking forward to seeing you all!
Sometimes when you listen to music, it seems like you can see pictures and colours. In this concert, you’ll join our music director James Gaffigan, along with Robin Poell and the orchestra of the Komische Oper Berlin, on a musical search for blue, red, orange, and other colours of the crayon box.
With music by George Gershwin (excerpts from Rhapsody in Blue), Edward MacDowell (To a Wild Rose, arr. Leroy Anderson), and Franz Liszt (Nuages Gris, arr. Donald Fraser)

Event Details
Bartók’s First Piano Concerto shocked its first audience in 1927 with its percussive dissonance – especially its tone clusters (chordal pile-ups), inspired by a 1925 encounter with the experimental American composer, Henry Cowell. Syncopation and repeat hammerings of a single note dominate the Allegro moderato. Strings drop out for the subdued central Andante with its Stravinskian ostinato rhythms and snaking woodwind counterpoint. This tips without a break into the Allegro molto finale, which hurtles furiously to an abrupt end. Originally an 1874 solo piano suite, and later transcribed into colourful orchestral creations by Ravel, Mussorgsky’s Pictures at an Exhibition was inspired by him visiting an exhibition of the works of his late friend, the artist Viktor Hartmann. Preceded and punctuated by ‘Promenades’ depicting Mussorgsky’s own heavy physique as he walks around, its ten character pieces begin with clumsily loping ‘Gnomus,’ believed to evoke a design for a nutcracker with large teeth. Further ‘pictures’ include ‘The Old Castle’ – a medieval troubadour – and ‘The Catacombs,’ whose sombre brass theme is based on the promenades. The climax is a majestic depiction of Hartmann’s bell-turret-topped design for ‘The Great Gate of Kiev.’

Event Details
Samuel Barber was just 29 in 1939 when he wrote his Violin Concerto. Like the Adagio for Strings which had made him famous the previous year, the concerto sounds more rooted in European Romanticism than in the music of his native America, even down to its cloudless first movement emulating Mendelssohn’s violin concerto by introducing its soloist instantly, and its central movement opening on an exquisite extended oboe solo, as Brahms’s does. The finale is then an urgent perpetuum mobile. Stravinsky was also in his late twenties when, in 1909, Sergei Diaghilev commissioned the ballet, The Firebird. Combining a nineteenth century fairytale poem and a popular Russian fable, it tells of how a prince rescues a princess from an ogre, helped by a magical firebird – and Stravinsky’s glittering score became his breakthrough work, its blend of exoticism and Russian folk style so successful that he thenok worked three concert suites from it.
