MOZART & PROKOFIEV

The Thessaloniki State Orchestra, in collaboration with the Thessaloniki Concert Hall, will present via streaming on the youtube channel and social media a unique concert with famous works by Mozart & Prokofiev. Under the music direction of Georgios Vranos and the winner of the 5th International Piano Competition "George Thymis" (2011), Martyna Jatkauskaite on piano, the orchestra will present the following works:

''Piano concerto No.24'', by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart (1756-1791), composed in 1786,  one of Mozart's most advanced compositions in the concerto genre which synopsizes all the passion of his outstanding music.

''Symphony No.1'' (‘Classical’), by Sergei Prokofiev (1891-1953), composed in 1917. Prokofiev’s wish that his first symphony “might itself turn out to be a classic” came true very quickly. The Classical earned an enduring spot in the orchestral repertoire as a compact masterpiece, and today is one of the most frequently performed and recorded of all 20th-century compositions.

The ARTBASSADOR, provided the Orchestra with the music material of the work of Sergei Prokofiev ''Symphony No.1'', on behalf of the Publishing House BOOSEY & HAWKES UK.
