The scene of the shenzhen symphony orchestra's special concert
Founded in 1982, the Shenzhen Symphony Orchestra, bathed in the spring breeze of reform and opening up, after nearly 40 years of unremitting pursuit and efforts, is recognized as one of China's outstanding professional symphony orchestras, and is moving towards the new goal of "building a first-class Orchestra in Asia with international influence".
Famous conductor Lin Daye
The first track performed in the first half of the concert was "Beautiful Countryside" by Ye Xiaogang, a famous composer and chairman of the Chinese Music Association. In the song, the composer adopts the tone of the folk song of the Hangjiahu Plain that he was familiar with as a child, and creates a traditional and modern listening experience for the audience with superb creative skills and colorful instrumentation. The works depict the transformation and beautiful scenery of the countryside in Hangzhou at present, as well as the spiritual outlook of the people living in this land in the new era, and express the composer's attachment to the beautiful countryside and his sincere admiration for the achievements of the motherland' construction.
The famous pianist Yuan Fang is playing
Immediately afterward, the famous pianist Yuan Fang played Chopin's "Smooth Line and Gorgeous Great Polish Dance" (Op.22). Chopin composed a total of 15 Polish dance songs in his lifetime, and this repertoire is the freshest, elegant and exquisite one of them. Composed in 1830, the song has the elegance characteristic of Paris at the time, and has been labeled "Paris" as a result. The performance of the evening, the splendid playing skills set off the atmosphere of the folk festival. Yuan Fang's wonderful piano performance aroused the tide of applause and cheers at the scene. Amid the incessant applause, the performer Yuan Fangjia performed a Chopin's "Black Key Etudes".
2021 marks the 110th anniversary of Mahler's death, and the world's major theaters and orchestras have launched different forms of commemorative activities to interpret MAHLE and pay tribute to MAHLE. In the second half of the concert, the Shenzhen Symphony Orchestra presented Mahler's Fifth Symphony to the audience. This work is one of the most widely circulated symphonies by composers, and it is from this work that many people begin to know Mahler. The musical language of the work fluctuates, and the orchestra and the conductor cooperate tacitly, so that the audience can feel the unique charm of this work again.
