V Musical Marathon List. All symphonic poems Automatic translate

December 8 at 16:00.

On December 8, at the stage of the State Academic Capella, People’s Artist of Russia Sergey Stadler and the St. Petersburg Symphony Orchestra will present the V Musical Marathon to the public. Within the framework of this project, one evening, musicians will traditionally perform a number of works by one composer. This year all 14 symphonic poems of Franz Liszt will sound. The concert will take place on the eve of the fifth anniversary of the orchestra.

One of Liszt’s main creative ideas was the idea of ​​synthesizing the arts. The composer embodied it, creating a new genre - a one-part symphonic poem. This form is the embodiment of poetry, literature, painting in music. Images, plots, and meanings of great works gain musical sound in the works of the composer. The warlike Huns and ardent Tasso, the treacherous Mephistopheles and the noble Prometheus - these and other heroes will come to life with the first wave of the conductor’s baton at a concert on December 8.

Fourteen exciting musical stories, 5 hours of beautiful music in one evening performed by one collective under the direction of one conductor - a truly unforgettable event.

Recall that the program “Sheet. All symphonic poems ”is not the first educational project of the People’s Artist of Russia Sergey Stadler. The previous Autumn Musical Marathons in 2014, 2015 and 2016 were dedicated to the creative heritage of Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky, Johannes Brahms and Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. These unprecedented concerts have a wide resonance in the media and among connoisseurs of musical art. Special attention deserves the concert of last year, where the orchestra performed all nine Beethoven symphonies. This event was included in the Russian Book of Records as "the longest running philharmonic concert with a program of one author performed by one symphony orchestra under the direction of one conductor."
