Mozart / Mendelssohn / Nielsen
The return of Spanish conductor Pablo González to the Orchestra Sinfonica di Milano's podium brings a programme that explores the many facets of the human spirit. From the sparkling wit of Mozart's Overture to The Marriage of Figaro—an opera of passion, intrigue and comic brilliance—to the lyrical warmth and radiant charm of Mendelssohn's Violin Concerto, brought to life by the refined artistry of Javier Comesaña. In the second half, Nielsen's Symphony No. 2, The Four Temperaments unfolds as a vivid musical gallery of human character. Each movement portrays a different temperament—from anger to melancholy, from sorrow to self-satisfaction—creating a striking and remarkably modern portrait of the complexities of human nature.
