In Edinburgh the orchestra plays a programme combining Villa-Lobos' Choros No. 10 with Bernstein's Chichester Psalms and Shostakovich's Symphony No. 5. At the Proms the orchestra gives two concerts. The first features music by Villa-Lobos and Rachmaninov, with the UK premiere of Kabbalah by the Brazilian composer Marlos Nobre, and Grieg's Piano Concerto with the Venezualan pianist Gabriela Montero. The second, late-night prom, members of the orchestra join the São Paulo Jazz Symphony Orchestra for a celebration of Brazilian music. The orchestra's programme in Lucerne repeats its prom concert.
Hi, I believe Gabriela Montero is from Venezuela?

ReplyDeleteHey all, thanks for this kindest note, but there are two little things: Yes! Gabriela is venezuelan, not brazilian (but could be something like: a South American moment at the Proms) and in Edinburgh we are gonna perform the Shostakovich's Nº5 (not the 10th).
