BONUS CONCERT: MOZARTS FAVOURITE WITH EMELYANYCHEV
Stay and enjoy this bonus concert which begins shortly after the original programme.

Mozart composed no less than twelve piano concertos during a particularly productive three-year-period in 1784–86. One of these is the A major concerto no. 23 in the main programme. In only a few days’ time in the spring of 1784, Mozart threw together a chamber piece for piano and four winds in three varied movements. The piano part is often, but not always, concerto-like; the winds are also allowed plenty of time in the spotlight.

Participants:
Maxim Emelyanychev, hammer grand piano
Bengt Rosengren, oboe
Niklas Andersson, clarinet
Henrik Blixt, bassoon
Hans Larsson, horn

Programme:
WOLFGANG AMADEUS MOZART: Quintet for Piano and Winds K. 452, 25 mins
I.Largo – Allegro moderato
II.Larghetto
III. Rondo: Allegretto

    Who will save Alfie Atkins?

    Alfie sits alone in the apartment where he lives and feels lonely. He has moved to a new place and doesn’t know any of the other children there. Sometimes his imaginary friend Malcolm appears, and when they play together, Alfons always gets to decide — like being the train driver when they play trains. The problem is that Mållgan never shows up when he is really needed, like when the “big boys” chase Alfons and spray his jacket with water pistols. A performance about friendship, based on Alfie Atkins, the beloved children’s book character created by Gunilla Bergström.
