Enrico Onofri is preparing to conduct two orchestras in two different cities, engagements that excite him deeply for distinct reasons, which he highlights in the statements below. In addition to these concerts, further recording sessions for the \u201cBeethoven and the Italians\u201d project will take place in Munich.<\/p>\n
The first concert is set for 9th October with the M\u00fcnchener Kammerorchester. On the subject, the Maestro said: \u201cThe programme I will conduct in Ravensburg with the M\u00fcnchener Kammerorchester partly features one of the works we\u2019ve just recorded for Harmonia Mundi: the viola transcription of Mozart\u2019s Clarinet Concerto, brilliantly realised by Timothy Ridout. The heart of the concert, however, will be the Prague Symphony, a work Mozart composed with the dazzling virtuosity of the city\u2019s musicians in mind, allowing him to combine instrumental playfulness with a solemn and majestic structure. I am proud and delighted to conduct this symphony with the MKO, an orchestra perfectly suited to express both sides of its character.\u201d<\/p>\n
The second engagement will be in Lugano, on 16th October, with the Orchestra della Svizzera Italiana:<\/strong> \u201cThe Lugano Auditorium holds a special place in my heart, as it was the setting for many successful recordings for the historic Teldec label with my former ensemble, Il Giardino Armonico” \u2013 continued Onofri. “It is therefore a true honour to be invited back to conduct the Orchestra della Svizzera Italiana in a programme which, marking their anniversary, recalls those performed in the orchestra\u2019s early years. The first half will include two twentieth-century works by Krenek and Nussio \u2014 both written for the orchestra itself \u2014 alongside a new commission by Duilio Galfetti, a violinist in the orchestra and, coincidentally, violist of Il Giardino Armonico in those very years. The concert will close with Beethoven\u2019s Fifth Symphony, which I will then record in the following days in Munich with my M\u00fcnchener Kammerorchester: the final volume of the Beethoven and the Italians project to be released by Harmonia Mundi to mark the next Beethoven anniversary.\u201d<\/p>\n Enrico Onofri is preparing to conduct two orchestras in two different cities, engagements that excite him deeply for distinct reasons, which he highlights in the statements below.
