ON THE PROGRAMME AND THE NEW MUSIC DIRECTION
“The concert programs of April 16 and 17 with which I inaugurate my collaboration with the Orchestra Mozart - says Daniele Gatti - are clearly separated from each other, but can be traced back to the same framework. The underlying theme is in fact to compare masters of Viennese classicism and great composers of twentieth-century neoclassicism who were able to harmonize modernity and tradition, drawing a parallel between "classical" and "neoclassical". The first concert program pays homage to Beethoven, on the 250th anniversary of his birth, with the Triple Concerto and the Overtures Coriolanus and Leonore No.3, accompanied by Prokofiev's Symphony No.1 in D major, known as Classical since it was conceived in Haydn’s style. The second program features operas by Mozart such as the Overture from Don Giovanni and Symphony No. 38 in D major called Prague - the city that marked the debut of both works in 1787 -, combined with the Symphony in C by Stravinsky, a forerunner of the return to ancient forms.”
“It is very inspiring to work together with a Music Director like Daniele Gatti, whose extraordinary musical talent is powered by an intense cultural curiosity - says Gastón Fournier-Facio, Art Consultant of the Orchestra Mozart. With President Azzaroni, we decided to outline a three-year program carried out in chronological progression which will allow us to identify some important parallels between the arts. The selected themes are Classicism and Neoclassicism (2020), Romanticism and Beyond (2021) and Fin-de-Siècle Vienna (2022). Each of these musical "journeys" includes, among other elements, twentieth-century pieces, so to underline the deep and ever-present relationship between past and present. These thematic itineraries will also allow us to develop the programs following an interdisciplinary perspective, meaning that the music performed in the concerts will be enriched each time by parallel events in the fields of literature, theatre, cinema and visual arts. In order to highlight similarities and analogies, we aim to present the public with works belonging to different linguistic areas, but created within a common aesthetic movement".
“2020 will finally see the debut of Daniele Gatti heading the Orchestra Mozart (an Accademia Filarmonica project renovated in 2016 by the Accademia itself) - remarks Loris Azzaroni, President of the Accademia Filarmonica. A long-awaited debut as the announcement of Maestro Gatti as musical director of the Orchestra dates back to last spring - Claudio Abbado himself indicated Maestro Gatti as one of his possible successors. And the celebration is double since 2020 marks a very important anniversary for the Academy, namely the 250th anniversary since the then fourteen-year-old Mozart took the admission exam at the ancient Bolognese musical institution and was proclaimed Maestro Compositore and Accademico Filarmonico. Mozart will thus be celebrated in Daniele Gatti's concerts with the Orchestra Mozart, along with, of course, the other legendary compositor whose very important anniversary is celebrated: Ludwig van Beethoven, who was born 250 years ago. A great celebration for and of music, of the Orchestra Mozart, of Maestro Daniele Gatti and of the Accademia Filarmonica.“
