Blu-ray - Mahler: Symphony No.1 - Prokofiev: Piano Comcerto No.3

The charismatic and inspiring Claudio Abbado and the mesmerising young pianist Yuja Wang, with the Lucerne Festival Orchestra, hold the audience spellbound in this opening concert of the 2009 Lucerne Festival. Prokofiev's popular and vibrant Third Piano Concerto demonstrates the composer's sharp musical wit, and Yuja Wang is a brilliant exponent of the work. Following this, and chiming beautifully with the festival's theme of the relationship between art and nature, Mahler's First Symphony is given an illuminating and rapturously received performance.

Claudio Abbado conducts the Lucerne Festival Orchestra with pianist Yuja Wang in works by Mahler and Prokofiev, summer 2009.

This classical music performance release features the opening concert of the 2009 Lucerne Festival. Claudio Abbado leads the Lucerne Festival Orchestra in interpretations of Sergey Prokofiev's Piano Concerto No. 3 in C Major, Op. 26 and Gustav Mahler's Symphony No. 1 in D Major, 'Titan'. World-renowned concert pianist Yuja Wang performs on the Prokofiev.

REPERTOIRE:
Sergei Prokofiev: Piano Concerto No. 3 in C Major, Op. 26
Gustav Mahler: Symphony No. 1 in D Major
“Like a cry of Nature”: thus the expression mark that opens Gustav Mahler’s First Symphony – and the programme of the Festival 2009 which takes up Nature as its guiding theme. Mahler, in the First Symphony, shaped the “cry of nature” into a musical vision of an entire human life in four stages – from a spring-like upsurge of feelings through desire and suffering, to the end of earthly existence and the entrance into Paradise.

The opening treats listeners to a spectacular début as the twenty-two-year-old Chinese pianist Yuja Wang plays Sergei Prokofiev's Third Piano Concerto. In her Lucerne appearances she displays the full range of her artistry as Prokofiev’s Third Piano Concerto demands not only lyricism and intimacy but brilliance and virtuosity.

Claudio Abbado has realised a dream with the Lucerne Festival Orchestra. The orchestra consists of an exclusive ensemble of handpicked musicians like Kolja Blacher and Sebastian Breuninger, Natalia Gutman, Clemens Hagen and Jens Peter Maintz.

Claudio Abbado is undeniably a supreme Mahler conductor and his best selling recordings with the Lucerne Festival Orchestra – symphonies No. 2, 3, 5, 6, 7 and 9 have already been released on EuroArts – have set new standards in interpretation of works by Gustav Mahler.
