Mozart's World: A Little Night Music
Southbank Centre, Queen Elizabeth Hall, SE1 8XX , [Venue Details]Three composers whose lives are curiously linked by a date and entanglement share the bill in an evening of music that delights and inspires.
Two of Mozart’s most enduringly popular orchestral pieces are framed by music from his friend Michael Haydn and the ‘Spanish Mozart’ Juan Arriaga, born 50 years to the day after Mozart.
It’s no understatement to say that Mozart’s Clarinet Concerto is one of those pieces that changed the history of music: 21st century audiences are familiar with the sound of the clarinet – it is inextricably linked with smooth romantic melodies or the iconic opening of Rhapsody in Blue – but when Mozart unveiled the piece its sound would have shocked audiences. This performance aims to recapture that sense of wonder and delight.
If any piece epitomises Mozart’s lasting appeal it could well be what he himself called ‘A Little Night Music’ in his list of his works. With its instantly memorable opening hook, deliciously judged romance and exquisite lightness of touch it is a symphony in all but name.
