FRÜHLINGSTRÄUME

This Sunday at the latest, the Brandenburg State Orchestra Frankfurt will be offering a delicately fragrant bouquet of French sounds: Debussy's "Prelude to the Afternoon of a Faun" transports us to dreamy realms under the southern sun, while in Jean Françaix's enchanting oboe concerto, interpreted here by the multi-award-winning Juri Vallentin, a flower clock sets the pace - the hour of the blue love flower strikes at 10 o'clock, "The Beauty of the Night" awakens at 5 o'clock ... In the spring of his life, the just 17-year-old Georges Bizet wrote his perfectly formed C major symphony. However, its premiere during his lifetime was to remain an unfulfilled dream.
