Michele Mariotti conducts Rossini's Stabat Mater

Programme

  • Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart Maurerische Trauermusik
  • Ludwig van Beethoven Tenth symphony (first movement)
  • Gioacchino Rossini Stabat Mater

Michele Mariotti set tongues wagging in the Netherlands with his Saturday matinee rendition of Rossini's Semiramide. In this concert, he presents his brilliant Stabat Mater.

Rossini after the operas
Rossini wrote his first opera at eighteen, and stopped at thirty-seven. Nineteen years in which he produced 39 operas. He stopped at the height of his fame, as a wealthy man with serious health problems. Still, between 1831 and 1842, he produced, through trial and error, a great religious work: the Stabat Mater, a brilliant creation that is considered one of the best of his works.

Beethoven's Tenth Symphony
Beethoven's friend and devil's advocate Karl Holz says: "Beethoven played the complete Tenth Symphony. He had sketches for all the movements, sketches that, however, no one could decipher." The British musicologist Barry Cooper tried. In 1988 he came up with an elaborated version of the first movement: "if only to let us hear what Beethoven left in sketch." Exciting!
