Info zu Bartók: Kossuth, 2 Portraits & Orchestral Suite No. 1
All three of the works in this programme reveal a young composer on the threshold of greatness, serving as his passport to the vast new world of orchestral music prevailing at the beginning of the 20th century.
Inspired by the tone poems of Richard Strauss, Bartók’s Kossuth dramatically commemorates the struggle for Hungarian independence in 1848 with an alluring and provocative orchestration. The Two Portraits set moods of love and painful heartbreak into stark contrast, while the First Suite is a showcase
of symphonic effects which caused a sensation in Vienna at its première in 1905.
“The Buffalo Philharmonic performances under JoAnn Falletta don't stint on what this music needs: energy and colour.” (The Guardian)
