Today’s concert features two outstanding pieces from the Viennese Classical period. Without exaggeration, Beethoven’s Violin Concerto is one of the most important works of the Viennese Classical period, in which the composer gives the soloist a very difficult task, while presenting the audience with some truly wonderful melodies. The soloist is 16-year-old Gáspár Kelemen, who was awarded a special prize by the Zemplén Festival for his outstanding performance at last year’s Bartók World Competition.
In the second half of the concert, one of Mozart’s great symphonies, the so-called Linz Symphony will be performed, which is an outstanding gem of Mozart’s genius.
The conductor of the concert is Vakhtang Kakhidze, a distinguished Georgian conductor, heir to a long line of musicians and a leading figure in Georgian music. His father is the world-famous conductor Jansug Kakhidze. Since 1993, Vakhtang Kakhidze has been conductor of the Tbilisi Symphony Orchestra.
