• The 1,500 people who attended the sold-out concert at the square of the Paphos medieval castle gave standing ovations, seemingly not very bothered by the hot midday sun at the unsheltered venue.
• The Berliner Philharmoniker celebrate their founding day (May 1st, 1892) in a European city of cultural significance every year.
• This year’s concert takes the orchestra to one of the most mythical places in its history: Paphos, birthplace of Aphrodite.
• Latvian conductor Mariss Jansons returns to the Berliner Philharmoniker’s rostrum once again, while the orchestra’s principal clarinettist Andreas Ottensamer is the solo clarinettist for the 2017 Europakonzert.
• In front of the city’s Byzantine castle, the Berliner Philharmoniker play works by Carl Maria von Weber and Antonín Dvorák , which impress with their lyrical zest and warm colours.
• Andreas Ottensamer performs his interpretation of von Weber‘s Clarinet Concerto, which is known as a much more elaborate composition than Mozart‘s clarinet concertos owing to the cooperation between the composer and clarinettist Joseph Heinrich Bärmann.
• The concert concludes with Dvorák‘s 8th Symphony, an unusually optimistic and light-hearted composition.
• The Blu-ray disc comes in high resolution audio: 96kHz/24 bit (more…)
