Za Leonore Orchestra, led by its founder, the versatile Italian conductor and violinist Daniel Giorgi, are characterized by an openness, freshness and excellence that is rarely found in large orchestras. The orchestra, based in the Tuscan city of Pistoia, reflects the enthusiasm and depth of its members, who come from the ranks of leading European orchestras and together ensure an unusual sonic flourish of the performed repertoire. With this approach, they have convinced even such demanding audiences as those who attend concerts at the renowned Hamburg Philharmonic on the Elbe, where the orchestra has performed to sold-out concerts on several occasions.
The concert program for our audience will be marked by two great masterpieces from the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Violin concerto Jean Sibelius's is one of the most unique works in the concert repertoire, combining virtuosity with dark, restrained northern lyricism reminiscent of the Finnish landscape; It is permeated by a sense of breadth and inner tension, and is both raw and refined. Brahms Second Symphony It seems to act as a brighter counterbalance, radiating some of the inner peace that the composer felt while vacationing on Lake Wörthersee, where he was composing the symphony. In reality, however, this work is also full of the depth and melancholy that are so characteristic of Brahms' musical language. The arc between introspection and brilliance will be in Sibelius's Violin concerto tense Soyoung Yoon, a new star among young talents. Soyoung Yoon has received a series of awards, including three of the most important violin awards, namely at the Indianapolis International Competition, the Tchaikovsky Competition and the Queen Elizabeth Competition, and has also convinced the critical pens of the magazine Gramophone and newspaper The Guardian.
