Dvořák and Borisova-Ollas

Composer Victoria Borisova-Ollas had a big hit with the premiere of her opera Dracula at the Royal Swedish Opera last autumn. In March, she is the focus of the Swedish Radio Symphony Orchestra’s composer series. As part of this inaugural concert, her new symphony Labyrinths of Time will be performed. Music by Dvořák and Bartók will also be performed.

Dvořák only wrote three solo concertos, but his virtuoso Violin Concerto in A minor – the second – has become a much loved repertoire piece, and is performed here by the Swedish Radio Symphony Orchestra’s leader, Tomo Keller. In Bartók’s Concerto for Orchestra, all the sections of the orchestra get their chance to shine, and it is one of Bartók’s most beloved and performed pieces. Victoria Borisova-Ollas’ Symphony No. 2, Labyrinths of Time was commissioned by Swedish Radio Berwaldhallen and the Gothenburg Symphony Orchestra.
