THE MUSIC
Debussy called the Rhapsodie for Clarinet and Piano "one of the most charming pieces I have ever written." Its dreamy atmospheres create a drama of changing colors, just beyond the reach of words. Delilah's aria Mon cœur s'ouvre à ta voix by Saint-Saëns, is so seductive that Samson cannot help but reveal the secret of his strength, dooming himself. Audiences have proved no less susceptible. In Stride la vampa from Verdi's masterpiece Il Trovatore, Azucena mourns her mother's awful fate and plots revenge. Wieniawski's Polonaise Brillante in D Major, is a theatrical, extroverted work, full of rapid runs and irrepressible enthusiasm. Paganini took care to write concertos so demanding only he could perform them and his Violin Concerto No. 1 in D Major, Op.6 remains one of the most difficult in the repertoire. But its staying power owes more to its wealth of melodies and operatic drama. Shostakovich's Piano Trio, No. 2, Op.67, strikes a tragic tone. The year was 1944, the composer's good friend Ivan Sollertinsky had died and the country was nearing the end of exhausting war. Here, after the public bombast of his Leningrad Symphony, was a private expression of doubt: anxiety about the future and sorrow for the past. Its premiere made a profound impression - the audience wept openly and demanded encores. It was immediately banned.
