Opening the festivities is that sublime Sixth, a symphony in five movements that transports the listener to a richly imagistic landscape imbued with serenity, an homage to the beauty of nature: "No one can love the country as much as I do," wrote Beethoven in a letter to Therese Malfatti. Next, Faust takes the stage to interpret the Violin Concerto in D, a monument of the concerto repertoire and, in a sense, a love poem commemorating a happy period in the composer's life. The superb soloist succeeds brilliantly in conveying the work's scope and structure, all while demonstrating her considerable powers of expression!
