LONDON PHILHARMONIC ORCHESTRA

the Orchestra takes up its annual residency at Glyndebourne Festival Opera, where it has been Resident Symphony Orchestra for over 50 years.

The Orchestra also tours internationally, performing to sell-out audiences worldwide. In 1956 it became the first British orchestra to appear in Soviet Russia and in 1973 made the first ever visit to China by a Western orchestra.

One of the finest orchestras on the international stage, the London Philharmonic Orchestra balances a long and distinguished history with its reputation as one of the UK’s most forward-looking ensembles. As well as its concert performances, the Orchestra also records film soundtracks, releases CDs and downloads on its own label, and reaches thousands of people every year through activities for families, schools and local communities.

The London Philharmonic Orchestra has recorded many blockbuster film scores, from The Lord of the Rings trilogy to Lawrence of Arabia, East is East, The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey and Thor: The Dark World.

It also broadcasts regularly on television and radio, and in 2005 established its own record label. There are now over 100 releases available on CD and to download.

Recent highlights include Shostakovich’s Symphony No. 11 and Mahler’s Symphony No. 8 under Vladimir Jurowski; a commemorative box set of historic recordings with former Principal Conductor Sir Adrian Boult; and works by Richard Strauss under Klaus Tennstedt, featuring soprano Jessye Norman.

The Orchestra was founded by Sir Thomas Beecham in 1932, and has since been headed by many great conductors including Sir Adrian Boult, Bernard Haitink, Sir Georg Solti, Klaus Tennstedt and Kurt Masur.

In September 2021 Edward Gardner became the Orchestra’s Principal Conductor, succeeding Vladimir Jurowski, who became Conductor Emeritus in recognition of his transformative impact on the Orchestra as Principal Conductor from 2007–21.

Karina Canellakis is the Orchestra’s current Principal Guest Conductor and Brett Dean is the Orchestra’s current Composer-in-Residence.

In summer 2012 the London Philharmonic Orchestra performed as part of The Queen’s Diamond Jubilee Pageant on the River Thames, and was also chosen to record all the world’s national anthems for the London 2012 Olympics. In 2013 it was the winner of the RPS Music Award for Ensemble.

The Orchestra is resident at the Southbank Centre’s Royal Festival Hall in London, where it gives around 40 concerts each season. It also enjoys flourishing residencies in Brighton, Eastbourne and Saffron Walden, and performs regularly around the UK. Each summer

PIETER SCHOEMAN

The London Philharmonic Orchestra is committed to inspiring the next generation of musicians, and recently celebrated the 30th anniversary of its Education and Community department, whose work over three decades has introduced so many people of all ages to orchestral music and created opportunities for people of all backgrounds to fulfil their creative potential.

Its dynamic and wide-ranging programme provides first musical experiences for children and families; offers creative projects and professional development opportunities for schools and teachers; inspires talented teenage instrumentalists to progress their skills; and develops the next generation of professional musicians.

The Orchestra’s work at the forefront of digital technology has enabled it to reach millions of people worldwide. Over the pandemic period the LPO further developed its relationship with UK and international audiences through its ‘LPOnline’ digital content: over 100 videos of performances, insights, and introductions to playlists, which collectively received over 3 million views worldwide and led to the LPO being named runner-up in the Digital Classical Music Awards 2020.

From Autumn 2020 the Orchestra was delighted to be able to return to its Southbank Centre home to perform a season of concerts filmed live and streamed free of charge via Marquee TV.

JULIA FISCHER violin/director LPO Artist-in-Residence Spring 2022

Symphony Orchestra under Michael Tilson Thomas.

She embarks on a recital tour of major European venues with pianist Yulianna Avdeeva, as well as with her own Julia Fischer Quartet.

During the 2020/21 season Julia Fischer appeared in concert with the Elbphilharmonie Hamburg and Alan Gilbert, the Svetlanov Symphony Orchestra and Vladimir Jurowski and the Bamberg Symphony under Jakub Hrůša, and premiered a new piece by Pascal Zavaro with the Orchestre national de France under Cristian Măcelaru.

In 2011 Julia Fischer founded her own Quartet with Alexander Sitkovetsky, Nils Mönkemeyer and Benjamin Nyffenegger, and continues to tour extensively in this formation. Her concert at the Alte Oper Frankfurt in 2010 marked her debut as a pianist: she performed Grieg’s Piano Concerto in the second half of the concert, having played Saint-Saëns’s Violin Concerto No. 3 in the first half.

The performance is available on a Decca-released DVD.

One of the world’s leading violinists, Julia Fischer is a versatile musician also known for her extraordinary abilities as a concert pianist, chamber musician and violin teacher. Born in Munich to German-Slovakian parents, she received her first violin lessons at the age of three and her first piano lessons shortly after from her mother, Viera Fischer. At the age of nine she started studying with renowned violin professor Ana Chumachenco, later becoming her successor. Winning First Prize at the Yehudi Menuhin International Competition in 1995 was one of the milestones in her early career and she has since performed with top orchestras worldwide.

Teaching is another integral part of Julia’s musical life, as she continues to nurture and guide young talent including performances alongside her students. She regularly gives masterclasses at Musikferien at Lake Starnberg (Starnberger See). In 2019 she founded a children’s orchestra, the Kindersinfoniker, teaming up with conductor Johannes X. Schachtner and pianist Henri Bonamy in her hometown of Munich.

In March 2019 Julia embarked on a major tour of China, Taiwan and South Korea with the London Philharmonic Orchestra under Vladimir Jurowski, and in September 2019 performed Britten’s Violin Concerto with the Orchestra, again under Jurowski, at the Royal Festival Hall and Saffron Hall. This spring she is Artist-in-Residence with the Orchestra, performing Mozart’s Concertos with Thomas Søndergård, as well as play-directing a Mozart programme and joining LPO Principal players in a chamber music concert. She returns to the Royal Festival Hall on 13 April to perform a live concert featuring Elgar’s Violin Concerto with the Orchestra and conductor Vladimir Jurowski.

Over the course of her artistic career Julia Fischer has released numerous critically acclaimed and awarded CD and DVD recordings, first under the Pentatone label and later under Decca. Breaking new ground in the classical music market, in 2017 she launched her own music platform, the JF CLUB, which offers exclusive audio and video footage and previews of her new recordings as well as personal insights into music and her work. Franck’s Sonata in A major, Szymanowski’s Sonata in D minor and Beethoven’s String Trio in C minor are all available exclusively on JF CLUB. In August 2021 Julia Fischer released a limited vinyl recording of Ysaÿe’s Sonatas as an exclusive JF CLUB edition in collaboration with Hänssler Classic.

This season Julia also embarks on an extensive tour with the Academy of St Martin in the Fields, an ensemble with whom she has enjoyed a long-standing relationship.

Other tours include with the Royal Philharmonic and Vasily Petrenko, and the Berlin Radio Symphony Orchestra with Vladimir Jurowski. Julia also collaborates with the Lucerne Symphony under its new Chief Conductor Thomas Sanderling, and the Bavarian Radio

Julia Fischer holds numerous awards including the Federal Cross of Merit, a Gramophone Award and the German Culture Prize. She plays a violin by Giovanni Battista Guadagnini (1742) as well as an instrument made

THOMAS SØNDERGÅRD conductor (Violin Concerto No. 3)

The 2021/22 season sees the RSNO’s return to live performances, showcasing works by, amongst others, Stravinsky, Tchaikovsky, Shostakovich and Berlioz.

In November 2021 Thomas led the orchestra in performances of Dvořák’s ‘New World’ Symphony and (with Midori), the world premiere of Detlev Glanert’s Violin Concerto No. 2, To the Immortal Beloved, in tandem with the 2021 United Nations Climate Change Conference in Glasgow. © Bjarke Johansen

Recent highlights with the RSNO have included tours to China and the United States, premieres of new commissions and Wynton Marsalis’s Violin Concerto with Nicola Benedetti, and much-praised appearances at the Edinburgh International Festival. This season he makes first visits to the Montreal Symphony, Minnesota Orchestra and Bergen Philharmonic, and returns to many orchestras, among them the NDR Radiophilharmonie Hannover, the Royal Danish Opera (Die Walküre and New Year concerts) and the Danish National Symphony Orchestra.

Danish conductor Thomas Søndergård is current Music Director of the Royal Scottish National Orchestra, following six seasons as Principal Guest Conductor.

Between 2012 and 2018 he served as Principal Conductor of the BBC National Orchestra of Wales, after stepping down as Principal Conductor and Musical Advisor of the Norwegian Radio Orchestra.

Thomas Søndergård’s previous appearance with the London Philharmonic Orchestra was in December 2020, when he conducted a programme of Ravel, Schubert and Bent Sørensen, filmed at the Royal Festival Hall and broadcast on Marquee TV. He has appeared with many other notable orchestras in leading European centres, such as Berlin (including the Berlin Philharmonic, Rundfunk-Sinfonieorchester Berlin and Mahler Chamber Orchestra), Leipzig (Gewandhausorchester), Paris (Orchestre National de France), London (BBC Symphony, London Symphony and Philharmonia Orchestra), Amsterdam and Rotterdam (Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra, Netherlands Philharmonic, Rotterdam Philharmonic), and is a familiar figure in Scandinavia with such orchestras as the Oslo Philharmonic, Gothenburg Symphony, Danish National Symphony, Royal Stockholm Philharmonic, Swedish Radio Symphony, Finnish Radio Symphony and Helsinki Philharmonic orchestras. North American appearances to date have included the symphony orchestras of Chicago, Toronto, Atlanta, Montreal, Vancouver, Houston and Seattle. He has made highly successful tours to China, Korea, Australia and New Zealand.

PROGRAMME NOTES WOLFGANG AMADEUS MOZART 1756–91

VIOLIN CONCERTO NO. 1 IN B FLAT MAJOR, K207 1773

JULIA FISCHER violin/director 1 Allegro moderato 2 Adagio 3 Presto

This Concerto has sometimes been identified (albeit without any real evidence) as the work referred to by Leopold Mozart in a letter he wrote to Wolfgang in Munich in 1777, chronicling an unexpectedly boisterous Salzburg evening: ‘Last Friday Herr Kolb gave a grand concert to the foreign merchants. He played on the fiddle your Concerto and your Serenade and, as the music was so much praised and won extraordinary acclamation and applause, he announced “You have been hearing the compositions of a good friend who is no longer with us.” Whereupon they all cried out: “What a pity that we have lost him!” The concert took place in Eisenberger’s hall. When it was over they all got drunk and shouldered one another in processions round the room, knocking against the lustres, or rather against the large chandelier which hangs from the middle of the ceiling, so that they broke the centre bowl and other pieces, which will now have to be sent to Venice to be replaced.’

Mozart’s First Violin Concerto is also his first original concerto for any instrument. While a handful of earlier keyboard concertos were based on material by other composers, this work – dated 14 April 1773 – is entirely the product of his own imagination. Yet while a long way from attaining the greatness of his best concertos, it shows few signs of compositional inexperience.

At 17, Mozart had already written more than 20 symphonies and seven operas, and his ready grasp of the skills of structural clarity, effective orchestral writing and affecting lyrical invention are certainly on display here.

The first movement is as bouyant as such a movement should be, the orchestra poised and formal and the soloist mixing graceful melody with more angular fast-note figuration, while the slow movement is a gentle Adagio whose rich but placid air clearly owes something to Mozart’s operatic experience. The finale is a dialogue between soloist and orchestra which bustles with violinistic athletics, and whose scampering main theme recalls the mood of mid-century concertos by Haydn.

VIOLIN CONCERTO NO. 2 IN D MAJOR, K211 1775

JULIA FISCHER violin/director 1 Allegro moderato 2 Adagio

3 Rondeau: Allegro a Vivaldian penchant for accompanying the soloist with only the upper orchestral strings – helps the whole work breathe a bright, clean air.

The Second Violin Concerto is the first of the four composed in rapid succession during the second half of 1775, and was completed on 14 June. It is not clear why violin concertos should have been such a preocupation at this time, but in Mozart’s day it was common practice to publish instrumental works in sets, and it is possible that he was hoping to get a decent number together for print.

The first movement’s mood is set by the little downward fanfare and the brief question-and-answer session that immediately follows it. The steady tread scarcely lets up from then on, and if the result can seem a little four-square, this is attractive music nonetheless.

The Andante second movement is a tender stream of melody, with great warmth in the orchestral episodes and an effectively touching melancholy to the solo part.

A fair bit of water had flowed under the compositional bridge since the First Concerto of 1773. As well as two operas and ten symphonies, Mozart had produced in that time his first piano concerto, a bassoon concerto and also two orchestral serenades, both containing within their eight-movement structure a complete three-movement violin concerto. If this suggests that Mozart had settled into the groove of writing for violin and orchestra, as well as of concerto-writing in general, there is also enough about the work itself to indicate a greater level of experience. This is a grander concerto than its predecessor, more urbane and with a keener social polish. Mozart finds a new economy with his melodic material here, the orchestration is delicate, and a predominantly high solo part – coupled with

The finale, like those of all the violin concertos of 1775, is entitled ‘rondeau’, evidence perhaps that Mozart was aware of the concertos of Parisian violinists such as Gaviniès and Saint-Georges. More recognisably Mozartian, however, is the way in which the minuet-style main theme is stated first by the soloist, then taken up gladly by the full orchestra. The alternation between returns of this theme and lightly contrasted intervening episodes is also managed with a hint of the flair and charm that was to distinguish many of his later concertos, whether for violin, piano or clarinet.

VIOLIN CONCERTO NO. 3 IN G MAJOR, K216 1775

JULIA FISCHER violin 1 Allegro

2 Adagio

3 Rondeau: Allegro Despite these peripatetic successes, it was Salzburg that was the real spiritual home of Mozart’s violin music.

It was there – where violin concerto movements were as likely to be heard as outdoor entertainment music or as an embellishment to a church service as in a concert hall – that he first played a concerto at the age of seven, later toiled in the court orchestra, and as a teenager composed his five violin concertos – the first in 1773, and the remaining four in 1775. They may not probe the depths of his later, Viennese piano concertos, but it true to say that they all reveal some degree of Mozartian inspiration, often of the most ravishing kind. With their accent on lyricism and eloquent personal expressiveness rather than technical brilliance, they marked a new stage in the artistic development of the composer with whom, above all, such qualities were to become associated.

Although the prevailing image of Mozart the performer is that of a pianist, the part played by the violin in his early development as a musician was an equally important one. How, indeed, could it be otherwise when his father and teacher, Leopold, was the author of Violinschule, one of the 18th century’s most influential treatises on violin technique? Accounts of the child prodigy’s triumphs around Europe suggest that, at that stage at least, he was equally proficient on violin and keyboard, and right into the mid-1770s his letters home to his family contained reports of public appearances as a violinist: ‘I played Vanhal’s Violin Concerto in B flat, which was unanimously applauded’, he wrote from Augsburg in 1777. ‘In the evening at supper I played my Strasbourg Concerto, which went like oil. Everyone praised my beautiful, pure tone.’
