Programme
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart: Don Giovanni, K527: overture
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart: Piano Concerto no. 20 in D minor, K466
Ludwig van Beethoven: Symphony no. 8 in F major, Op.93
Overview

Mozart’s Twentieth piano concerto might be his most exciting. You could describe it as an amalgam of Beethoven’s virtuoso style mixed with Don Giovanni’s rich, dark tension.

This makes the rest of the program a perfect match, and Don Giovanni’s overture is a wonderful introduction to the piano concerto. Mozart’s piano concerto in turn is like an introduction to Beethoven’s Eighth – an almost literal explosion of joy, with a touch of Mozart’s frivolity.  

Academy of St. Martin in the Fields is one of the most famous chamber orchestras in the world, renowned for their performances of pieces by late 18th century composers like Beethoven and Mozart. Young world star Beatrice Rana (only 30 years old) solo in the piano concerto.  

Venue Info

De Doelen - Rotterdam
Location   Schouwburgplein 50

De Doelen is a concert venue and convention centre in Rotterdam, Netherlands. It was originally built in 1934 but then destroyed in 1940 during the German bombardment of Rotterdam in May 1940 at the outset of World War II. It was rebuilt in 1966, originally with one hall to which two more were added in the 1990s.

It has a variety of facilities, including the Grote Zaal (Grand Hall), a 2,200-seat concert hall, two smaller halls which each seat about 700 people, and convention rooms. In 2015 it was classified as a Rijksmonument.

Although mainly known as a venue for classical music, de Doelen is also a stage for jazz, world music and as the Central Boxoffice for the International Film Festival Rotterdam. It is also the home of the Rotterdam Philharmonic Orchestra.
