Programme

What to expect:

Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky: Symphony No. 5 in E minor, op. 64

Content

Tchaikovsky wrote his Fifth Symphony as a symbol for the tragedy of life:

Fate dominates throughout in the form of the oppressive recurring theme. It symbolizes the composer’s own crises: his failed marriage, his unfulfilled desire for young men and his isolation as an outsider in society. No other symphony could be better suited for the robust passion and verve of young musicians. Andrés Orozco-Estrada conducts the premiere of the styriarte Festival Youth Orchestra with all his usual emotion. The choreography for this exceptional orchestral project is by Adrian Schvarzstein.

The performance lasts 60-70 minutes without an interval.

Styriarte Youth Orchestra

Orchestra

A symphony orchestra of highly qualified and enthusiastic young musicians: that's what Andrés Orozco-Estrada wanted from the Styriarte in 2021 - and that's what he got. Mei-Ann Chen is now taking this orchestra under her wing for the third year. The members of the Styriarte Youth Orchestra come from many different countries around the world and work on their programme in an orchestra camp lasting just under a week.

Andrés Orozco-Estrada

Dirigent

Das Haus Styriarte ist ein wenig stolz darauf, dieses Dirigierphänomen einst frisch von der Ausbildung weg als Chefdirigenten (2005 bis 2009) des Großen Orchesters recreation engagiert zu haben. Heute glänzt der feurige Kolumbianer, geboren 1977, am Pult der bedeutendsten Klangkörper der Welt – und kehrt stets leidenschaftlich gern nach Graz zurück.

Adrian Schvarzstein
