Concert program

Erkki-Sven Tüür
Sinfonie Nr. 10 für vier Hörner und Orchester („Æris“)

INTERMISSION

Dmitri Schostakowitsch
Sinfonie Nr. 10 e-Moll op. 93

Description

Four horns and orchestra usually means that Robert Schumann's lively concert piece written in 1849 is on the programme. Not so this time: Estonian composer Erkki-Sven Tüür has written a new work for the horn quartet german hornsound, which it premiered two years ago. The ensemble includes KHO horn player Timo Steininger.

It is followed by the 10th Symphony by Dmitri Shostakovich, which was written and premiered after Stalin's death in 1953 - an extremely impressive reckoning by the composer with the past years of terror, fear and paralysis.
