Floating soundscapes, lyrical dialogue and a symphonic awakening. A brilliant season opening with Anna Thorvaldsdottir (composer-in-residence), Schumann and Mahler’s Titan.
The season begins in pure imagination with Aeriality by Anna Thorvaldsdottir, our new composer-in-residence. Music that hovers, drifts and opens up spaces for stillness and reflection.
In Schumann’s Piano Concerto, the soloist does not confront the orchestra but joins it at the heart of the conversation. Anna Vinnitskaya, winner of the 2007 Queen Elisabeth Competition, brings this intimate dialogue to life with clarity and a natural, compelling strength.
After this captivating prelude, Gustav Mahler unfolds his First Symphony, “Titan” — a work in which nature awakens, irony cuts through the surface, and visionary energy gradually rises. Conductor Matthew Halls leads an untameable season opening: sweeping, monumental and rich with promise.
Meet Anna Vinnitskaya at Bozar! During the interval or after the concert, she will be present for a signing session. As part of the Piano Legends subscription series, subject to the artist's availability.
