Concierto para violonchelo de Elgar

Artistic team Pablo Ferrández, cello Musikkollegium Winterthur Roberto González-Monjas, conductor Programme R. Dubugnon: Caprice à l'espagnole (Spanish premiere) E.

Edward Elgar's Cello Concerto, composed in 1918, is one of the most important works written for this instrument during the 20th century. Pablo Ferrández will be the soloist, with the Musikkollegium Winterthur as the orchestra and Roberto González-Monjas conducting. The conductor is also principal conductor of the Mozarteumorchester Salzburg and music director of the Sinfónica de Galicia.

The evening includes the Spanish premiere of Caprice à l'espagnole by the composer Richard Dubugnon, and Felix Mendelssohn's Symphony No. 5 'La Reforma', conceived to celebrate the religious reforms in Germany during the 16th century.

The proposal forms part of the events commemorating the Año Pau Casals, dedicated to the Catalan cellist, and brings together in one programme a concerto from the central repertoire for the instrument with orchestral works of different origin and period.
