Description
The 1,500 people who attended the sold-out concert at the square of the Paphos medieval castle gave standing ovations, seemingly not very bothered by the hot midday sun at the unsheltered venue - Cyprus-mail.com
The Berliner Philharmoniker celebrate their founding day (May 1st, 1892) in a European city of tural significance every year. This year’s concert takes the orchestra to one of the most mythical places in its history: Paphos, birthplace of Aphrodite. Latvian conductor Mariss Jansons returns to the Berliner Philharmoniker’s rostrum once again, while the orchestra’s principal clarinettist Andreas Ottensamer is the solo clarinettist for the 2017 Europakonzert. In front of the city’s Byzantine castle, the Berliner Philharmoniker play works by Carl Maria von Weber and Antonín Dvořák , which impress with their lyrical zest and warm colours. Andreas Ottensamer performs his interpretation of von Weber‘s Clarinet Concerto, which is known as a much more elaborate composition than Mozart‘s clarinet concertos owing to the cooperation between the composer and clarinettist Joseph Heinrich Bärmann. The concert concludes with Dvořák‘s 8th Symphony, an unusually optimistic and light-hearted composition. The Blu-ray disc comes in high resolution audio: 96kHz/24 bit
