Choir of the Generalitat Orchestra of the Valencian Community

El Cor de la Generalitat Valenciana , under the baton of James Gaffigan , interprets the Aleksandr Nevski cantata that Prokófiev extracted from his soundtrack for Eisenstein’s film of the same name, completely re-orchestrated and provided with a symphonic development. Majestic music, fascinating to the ear of any music lover due to the expressive power of the choral mass, the robustness of the orchestral sound and the poignant tribute to the fallen heroes, which will evoke the beautiful and warm voice of the mezzo-soprano Olesya Petrova. Previously, the male section of the Choir discovers one of Schubert’s best choral pieces, Gesang der Geister über den Wassern, with text by Goethe about nature and human existence, and the OCV highlights the most revolutionary Haydn with Symphony 49, “La Passione”.

I had such a great experience debuting with NDR Elbphilharmonie Orchester @Elbphilharmonie! I had the additional surprise of having my wonderful colleague Anton Barakhovsky lead the program.
