Shows

Hot nights await in the Minorite Hall as master oboist Portät Alfredo Bernardin mit eingestützdem rechtem Arm vor orangem Hintergrund Alfredo Bernardini and Maria Bader-Kubizek spielt Violine während einer Aufführung bei Styriarte. Maria Kubizek on violin drive Vivaldi’s Four Seasons cycle to a suspense-filled finale, accompanied by the Baroque masters Fux and Platti.

Content

summery Viennese night music

When Alfredo Bernardini picks up his Baroque oboe, the entire Minoritensaal dances along. He transforms an orchestral suite by the Styrian composer Johann Joseph Fux into a summery Viennese night music, gives a brilliant rendition of the oboe concerto by the Würzburg Venetian composer Platti and conducts two of Vivaldi’s most beautiful concertos. One can only hope that the summer of 2027 will not be as Vivaldi, Kubizek, and Bernardini describe it: relentlessly hot, humid, and stormy.
