In the recording of the festive summer concert with pianist SoRyang and Deutsche Streicherphilharmonie, the string orchestra of Germany's music schools, conducted by Wolfgang Hentrich from the Golden Hall of the Vienna Musikverein on August 1, 2021, an attractive selection of works can be heard with Edvard Grieg's suite From Holberg's Time«, the 2nd Piano Concerto in F minor by Frédéric Chopin, as well as Roland Baumgartner's «Gondellied Variation» for piano, harp and string orchestra, in which the composer resorted to the «Venetian Gondola Song» from Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy's «Songs without Words». Further works presented on this 2 CD set are Wojciech Kilars «Orawa» for string orchestra (1988), Samuel Barber's famous solemn «Adagio for Strings», Johann and Joseph Strauss' «Pizzicato-Polka», Astor Piazzolla's «Oblivion» and «Presto» from «Summer» of Antonio Vivaldi's «Four seasons».
The Summer Night Concert 2021 of the Deutsche Streicherphilharmonie, recorded live in the Golden Hall of the Vienna Musikverein, presents a varied program with a lively and freshly played Holberg Suite by Grieg, the Second Piano Concerto by Frédéric Chopin played with idiosyncratic rhythm by SoRyang, as well as Roland Baumgartner’s Gondellied Variations, Samuel Barber’s Adagio for Strings and smaller pieces by Kilar, Johann Strauss, Piazzolla and Vivaldi. – ♪♪♪♪ (pizzicato.lu)
