Though he was only 20 at that time, the composition itself was exquisite expression of emotion. Chopin once pointed out in his correspondence with a friend that “he composed the work in a romantic, silent and melancholy mood, and his work enabled people to recall wonderful memories, like the grace of a warm summer night.” Yundi began his professional career after winning the First Prize in the 14th International Frederick Chopin Piano Competition at the age of 18. The youngest ever to win the competition, Yundi is renowned for his performance of Chopin’s music. With impeccable technique, he can captivate audiences with his lyrical and romantic touch. In this much anticipated concert, Yundi will pay tribute to the composer whose music helped launch his career. Bank of China (Hong Kong) is committed to supporting arts and cultural development in Hong Kong. We are delighted to present numerous enthralling local and international arts programmes to help enrich the cultural life of the public at large, while continuing to serve our community with quality and innovative banking products and services. We hope you enjoy this memorable event with Yundi Li and the Hong Kong Philharmonic.

Enriching Hong Kong’s cultural life for over a century, the Orchestra has grown into a formidable ensemble of Chinese and international talents in the last three decades, attracting world-class artists to perform on the same stage. HKPO annually touches the lives of 200,000 music lovers through more than 150 performances. Under the leadership of its internationally renowned conductor Edo de Waart, HKPO continues to scale new heights in musical excellence. The continuing cycle of Mahler symphonies and challenging programming outside the traditional repertoire, have become highly anticipated events as well as musical milestones for the Orchestra. Beethoven’s Fidelio opera-inconcert and Mahler’s Das Lied von der Erde are inarguably the major highlights of the 2009/10 season. Many great artists perform with the HKPO, from pianists Jean-Yves Thibaudet, Boris Berezovsky and Paul Lewis, violinist Sarah Chang to cellist Steven Isserlis. The visit of the legendary Gennadi Rozhdestvensky is also an event not to be missed. α˂cʪ̀එ྆෯ഁڌপਥټιݯ ᅥ྆ࠖؿᖳХc˞Хജऋྡྷଊˢྦྷᅥ྆ؿ ѩᗙeϊݯಋᅥ̌ɐɣͬؿพᖳХc˥ᅥ྆ ˞ΕᖚɐτҡɣؿೕࢄcΉ˖ވၦ̎ᑺ൬ ࣂؿcੀঢ়ˋๅؿˮᄤɣ̵̟cᜑҡ ΛɁઅᘩԷ̀ࠑᅥe From April 2006, The Swire Group Charitable Trust became the Hong Kong Philharmonic’s Principal Patron, enabling Maestro de Waart’s artistic vision for the Orchestra to be realized.

These included, the largest symphonic event of the year, Swire Symphony Under the Stars at Happy Valley. The Orchestra runs a comprehensive schools education programme, HSBC Insurance Creative Notes, bringing the joy of classical music to primary, secondary and special school kids, and once in a while, the Orchestra drops the formality of the classical concerts to crossover with Western and Chinese pop stars. The Orchestra also builds its reputation and raises its artistic standards by touring. In 2007/08 season, the Orchestra performed in the Shanghai Spring International Music Festival and the Beijing Music Festival. In 2009, the Orchestra undertook a major six-concert tour of China, including the Xinghai Concert Hall in Guangzhou, Beijing’s National Centre for the Performing Arts and Shanghai Grand Theatre under the leadership of Maestro Edo de Waart. In February 2008, the Hong Kong Arts Development Council honoured the HKPO with the Arts Promotion Award, in recognition of its success in expanding its audience base and gaining public support in recent years.

Based loosely on characters from Shakespeare’s A Midsummer Night’s Dream it was commissioned by London’s Covent Garden theatre where it was premièred on 12th April 1826, just eight weeks before Weber’s death. ܨԑᚻ͂ȿଡ଼ɡˈԓͦࡧէɾྒؿɁذcͅ ࠷ޫ٧්ჱկАcα˂ˀΕ ჱࠖeɄܱ౨܃cࠏВڏၤ˖ٽᖽe ፭ട৪ҰɎؗcࠏВɰαΛӀτͨЄณА ਐ˖ȿe˿ܰޫ٧්ؿଉ݅ဍf̠ٛဍࣂ کڳԞկˢᄘАჱcϤ˘༭ڈټᔔڴe డʨکcˢɷ੪ϬɯӸ੩टc̋Ɏడ˂ ྐ՜hͅכኪʶϬɯӸ܃ܨᄓծຕԫ́ݠಲട ωɥα˂ˀɷˮ́cᅬಳઅՇկ ˳ܢ ጱ߳࠷ࠖܞcณჱα֛৽೫e̠ٛဍ ፕɻߜਝჱАࡼճfᖓႝႫfᙬթᄘАჱ̯c ടˢҝᇁଡ଼ɡˈԓࡈടh˿ܰࠏВၤᙬթؿؒ ࣟࣟɺɃeЎͅכం༭ྡྷΕᔔڴcϤ˘߬ҝ৽ɖ ྡྷΕ࠸ڔcࠏВτೝട͊ᘗᙩᄘАeͲჱ α˂ᆨcࡄΡႢʥઢೡߜ֡کਝe Weber’s increasingly debilitating illness meant that for more than a year he had composed nothing at all. However, an exceedingly generous commission from Charles Kemble, Covent Garden’s manager, came within days of Weber’s doctor pronouncing that his disease was incurable and he had just months to live. Faced with the worry that his young family (his second son was born on 6th January 1825) would face financial hardship following his death, Weber decided to accept the commission (which involved travelling to London to conduct the première) and started work on the new opera in late 1824. Kemble had chosen an English librettist – James Robinson Planché – to transfer Shakespeare’s ideas into a musical entertainment, but Weber quickly realised that Planché’s ideas were totally at odds with his own views on opera. But the money was too good and time too short to demand changes, so Weber persevered and had the work completed by the following January, just in time for his journey to England. ࠏВiෙВ᎘iѵς WEBER: Oberon: Overture ࠷ؿᜮଠྦྷࠏВࠑؿᅥɊʗՇໃcҡ̨व ჱྻԝcΕჱѧࣂᑼᇼАςࡼܞɐ̎ ᑢྭ ϊ܃ိ২ؒగιȿ˖ވΈΔჱྻؿ ԝeಳϤ܃Ɂڳᘨᙌჱಲ˿ޅᜮc̳Σ ᚬۤؿঢ়ˈჱͲֺ࣊ӰiࠏВࡈടؿˮ ዀ ผ ۾ʭ c ࠧ ܰ ϊ ჱ ؿҝ ᇁ ς ۗ ዀ ผ ᑹ Λ ΛeЎঢ়ˈჱͲ࣊ڳѼࢀѵςϭʌʋܰ τΊdՇᚭࠑؿٴᅥผɩۂɾȹe ѽ֣Ⴉ୮ඨԞؿ໔ᐰᎦқ֞ؿᅥcూᖒ ˮ ၀ ˔ ෙ В ᎘ Ε ׳ɻ ኹ ᇚ Ɏ ᆃ ဣ ੱ ؿౡ c The London audience so admired Weber’s music that they did something never done in an opera house before; they called the composer/conductor up on to the stage at the end of the performance (something which has since become standard practice in all opera houses around the world). Subsequent generations have found Weber’s work less than admirable and, as the authoritative Kobbé’s Complete Opera Book puts it, “it has been heard far less often in the form which Weber left it than in the various arrangements to which it has been subjected”. The Overture, on the other hand, has remained in the words of Kobbé , “one of the best known and most popular of concert pieces”. ܈ɎϷܹؿ˃ဳ֞˥Ɂ͝ΣສӸ˦ྊe ၀ᆽؿ໔ӯςˤٲෙВ᎘c֞ؿᙺݠᅥ˚ᕀڬ ΕჱɻˤٲȹྦྷಎࣵীəؿᛞɁh௰ᓫဳۗˮؿ ˚ᕀΕჱɻͅᛞɁɾȹˮcɩొೄۗˮࠏВ ȹࠖΊςؿːݒhࡄᅬϤᗘЍ൬Ϸς˚ؿᕀ˥Ɂ ჱɻɁ݇ذКe፭܃Ԓ˚ᕀ˞ɺࠍؿႜ ˮଊcΛ˚ᕀ͚ᓱΕȹcᅥς܃ው৽ɁʶΔ ѧe The opening distant horn call and subdued strings set the scene in the woodland bower where Oberon, the fairy king, is sleeping, while the soft, quickly descending woodwind chords suggest the atmosphere of fairyland. The delicate fanfare represents Oberon while the bustling string theme occurs later in the opera as two pairs of lovers escape by sea. The clarinet plays the theme later sung by one of the lovers while the violins respond with a snatch of one of Weber’s most famous tunes. A sturdy, march-like theme is associated with the character of Puck, and after all these themes have intertwined in various guises the Overture draws to its exciting close. ጣԄ Frédéric Chopin 1810-1849 (ɩሁȹ፡ೄԾۗςcАۂ Piano Concerto No. 1 in E minor, Op. 11 ᗲ҄ؿ ࣯ςiɩᄤ ረફςi҄ޅ Allegro maestoso Romanze: Larghetto Rondo: Vivace ΕጣԄؿαˤc፡ೄዟۗผိٲѼβᑹӀ The concept of a solo piano recital had yet to become established (it was Liszt, towards the end of the 1830s, who made the solo piano recital popular with audiences) and the only way in which Chopin could display his talents on a public platform was through concert performances with orchestras. He composed six works for piano with orchestra in the five years from 1827, when he was finishing his studies at the Warsaw Conservatory and embarking on a career as a performer and composer. They were designed not only to display his undeniably precocious gifts as a pianist but also to promote his less obvious skills as a composer. ˮଊ Εαˤ̱cܰңऋ˥ိٲѼβ ɣՇᜮଠᚭٴcΐϊጣԄ߬Εၦ̎ɐȹᛷӸʹc ȹؿዀผగܰၤᅥ྆Аeͅαؿ ʄαʑcˢᄘАȿʒࠖ፡ೄၤᅥ྆ۗؿА ۂĶ ࣂˢࡄജҳࠑᅥነଓพcۗАςԑพ ɖࡄࡄүcԅԒᅥςcɺඩᛷᚉˮጣԄ൚ະؿ ೄᖚcɖ࠘ዀٲଊˢؿАςe ጣԄȹࠖ፡ೄԾۗςα˂Εജҳࠖ܃ ڈι˲hςɻΡԒ৽ᚹמতςሁcɖɐɁ ͂ԞҝᄘιɣਢᑁؿАۂe˿ܰጣԄԀিᅩݘ ۗؿς͌ڳӀτ˳ܢࠖᅥςΕʑcࠧܰ৽೫ ᄘАɀࠖ፡ೄԾۗςcࠖԾۗςα˂ ѧιcα˂ˀࠖe࣓ኣࣂࠑᅥผ ؿˮୌྻcԾۗςؿȹdɀᅥɾංผైɃ ȹࠖ࿀ಳɺؿᅥςАᒨ၈ ϊςࠖࣂc˱ై Εɻං˺ܰؿᖓfॗС̿ ˀࠑᅥผ ܞؿȹࠖ ςeᅚగᘷȿݯЄʌયˮؿԾۗς ȹᅥؿˮࣂංޚ೩כɀdɍᅥؿᐢe ಲሃΣЄcˀȹςܫୄc ቊϦ્ᚸؿుᐰ፭Щ ᚊhంంኒ႓၀ࠑᅥؿɁႏݯጣԄؿ ณԾۗςܰˮϳࠑؿᅥАۂɾȹe Chopin had achieved remarkable success with the first of his piano concertos, premièred in Warsaw in March 1830 – it had immediately spawned a whole host of light works based on its catchy themes – but rather than continue to perform it on his forthcoming European tour, he set to work on a second which he completed in August of the same year. It was given its first public performance on 11th October 1830. The custom in concerts at that time was to intersperse a different piece between the first and second movements of a concerto – which explains why the first movement of the concerto heard this evening is virtually the same length as the other two put together – and at this Concerto’s first performance a choral work by Carlo Soliva (the conductor of the concert) was introduced. Nevertheless the entire Concerto was met with “deafening applause”. The press reported; “Chopin’s new Concerto was regarded by connoisseurs as one of the most sublime of all musical works.” ጣԄiȹ፡ೄԾۗς CHOPIN: Piano Concerto No. 1 ୀʶؿᚾّଊΕ˿ॶѧͲ࿅ɺട Ķ ɐʼ ႓ؿӠܰȹᑹܰɀԾۗςj ʌયˮܰؿጣԄᄘАؿɀࠖԾۗς α ˂ࠖؿԅȹࠖeЎȹࠖԾۗςͅכኂ ਐᕀϤ֝ፖˮخcᜑɀࠖญͱΕαˮخc Ϭϊݯီڏّ܃ጣԄȹ፡ೄԾۗςeጣԄ ҐͿԵخᕀᘆ˺ဍК̠࠷ढ़ ʱቭࠑᅥነ ઠe α˂ˀࠑؿᅥผɐcጣԄጱϬኪͨ ዟۗ Ķ ԅܰˢ܃ȹωΕؐᙬʔˮȿe ɍ൪܃cˢՅ༞ෙΔСᄨਝ ˢగܰΕᄨਝ ੪ؐᙬ̵ଠຮڜᖓɁɈᔪᎦ ֡ک ؒਝcΐಲᇂʹӮܨɠeˢᄘ༞i ҈ᘨᔴࡼ గܰ೩ϋ Ķ ϋΕᔴࡼɊຒɄɝԈؿΔʿcȹց ᐘȿeիիȹࢠɾcӀτጱɁޚЂcѷᖾ ܰОಲੱؿᔢ́ཪɁcʪ˿ְȿeʳั ؿαႦɁτိؒྡྷΕ˥Ɂˉড়ࢣಳhЎ ጣԄڳभؿᆅෲीਝc˿˞ΕͨЄᗘࠑؿێᅥ သߎΔٲ༠ෲਝੱᕤcϤࠖԾۗςɖ ɺԝ̔e ȹ ᅥ ͅ ࡄ ᅬ ߜ ؿඐ β ဳ ֞ ᅥ ʵ ɥ ઘ ѵྭcಳܰ܃༖ҕੱ˚ؿᕀ ؿێጣԄβࢧϦ ςሁeᅥςն̒܃ʗᘸ̞́cᅘᘳؿ፡ೄ ޯಳᚊcȹɎɥҐҕੱ˚ᕀᎦɎ˾eɾ܃፡ೄ ȹقА˚ኒcΕԭ˚ᕀɾංಌӶ Ķ ȹോᄩ ؐᙬɁ̵ʦҊᎦ߾cȹˤٲˢࠨಞશࡼ൰ ̡Ϊྟe Attentive readers may by now be thoroughly confused. Are we talking of the “first” or the “second” Concerto? Tonight we are hearing the second concerto Chopin composed (premièred in October 1830), but since problems over the orchestration delayed publication of the earlier concerto, the second was published first (in 1833) and has been called, ever since, Chopin’s “First” Piano Concerto. The composer dedicated the published score to Friedrich Kalkbrenner, a teacher at the Paris Conservatoire. The concert on 11th October, at which Chopin was the soloist, was his last public performance in Poland. Three weeks’ later he left for France via Austria and Germany (where news reached him of the violent suppression of the Polish popular uprising by the Russians) and was never to see Poland again. As he wrote “I feel that I am leaving home only to die – and how awful it must be to die far away from where one has lived! How frightful it will be for me to see some cold-hearted doctor or servant by my deathbed instead of my family”. Morbid thoughts for a 20-year-old, but Chopin was fervently nationalistic and the Concerto expresses in as strong a way as any music can his love for his homeland. The 1st movement opens with a heroic, sturdy orchestral introduction, which gives way to a more lyrical theme – typical of Chopin in his more tuneful vein – which in turn is abruptly silenced by the explosive first appearance of the piano, some four minutes into the Concerto. From then on the piano dominates switching between these two themes, the one representing the Polish peoples’ struggle against oppression, the other their yearning for a peaceful homeland. with CD SPECTR UM for CELL O 16 cont empo Compile d by Wil rary piec es liam Bru ce with CD S P E C T RU M for VIOLIN 16 contemporar y pieces Compiled by Alexan dra Wood ጣԄiȹ፡ೄԾۗς CHOPIN: Piano Concerto No. 1 ɀᅥੱ૯ԳcጣԄ̯ɁѼࢀѽ֣τɁ ใܹΔશടܺȹ୮cʛɝϛ҄ݒᅥؿΑኙe ɩొೄۗˮႦܹؿɐϷᅥ܆c໔ɎϷՓᎶc ೕɁ૯ࠑؿޘᅥ፭ЩΕ፡ೄɐᚊe ɍ ᅥ ͱ ͅ ੜ ֞ ؿ ڰᅥ ღ ۗ А ሼ ખ c ፡ ೄ ፭گگࣩ́܃Δ˱Ƀeᅥ࣓ኣؐᙬඨ ၦςڭɡၦᄘι ݚəࣵ̔ؿጣԄᄦۗ ိၦςc˞ᛷ͐ϬɯؐؿᙬɁऋሔe˞Σϊ ৽Ɂࠑؿᅥ˳̵પऋϳcАςࡼഒਅѼࢀݯ ࡤΕعပ٦ؿײc፡ೄτஈΛᏬᙡᘚଡ ݮؿҌዀผe Chopin himself described the deeply felt 2nd movement as “giving the impression of someone looking gently towards a place which calls to mind a thousand happy memories”. A gentle upward-moving idea from the violins is neatly turned by a pair of horns as the piano enters in deeply reflective mood. Strong unison strings pave the way for the exuberant entry of the piano in the 3rd movement. Based on a traditional Polish dance, a krakowiak , which was frequently played in exile by Chopin as a way of demonstrating his Polish-ness (the composer Schumann saw these nationalistic devices wrapped up in such lovely music as “guns buried in roses”), the music offers a dazzling display of pianistic virtuosity. ཊ̌ဦਥ Ottorino Respighi 1879-1936 ɍఝؐొʘСؿೋ ཊ ̌ ဦ ਥ α ˂ ˀ ́ ؐ כඊ ԅ c ั ϣ൬Δࠑؿᅥነcαଓพc૯Շχऔf ྇ؿᄧᚊe྇ܰα˞ԞȹϽӀ τᄘАჱؿ෮ɣСАςࡼhˢྦྷd˖ ෮ɣСؿኂᅥᄘАඨؿወڴጙመc̳Ρͅཊ̌ ဦਥᘗֻe˿ܰཊ̌ဦਥٱԎɺ့̨˞Аς ݯพ Ķ ˢࡈܰਿพ֞ᅥʹcϭαΕ ዸС̛֞ᅥ̒ࠇּۗۗɻొೄe˿ܰˢڳ൙Ԟ ൙௩ᚭАςc፭ዸС̛֞ᅥ̒ࠇۗԭ۹֡ک ڜᖓԀিˮ Ұωؿˀɥɺ ࣂcτዀ ผ፭׳ճਥঢ়ҳ˿ʩነୌcԎΕˢܞؿኒɎ ᄘιȹࠖɣ֞ဳێᅥА ۂĶ ፡ೄԾۗςe ཊ̌ဦਥαૃיȿਿพ֞ᅥʹcցֈ ᖓcਿ؇АςeˢӸݯ෮ɣСɁcઅՇկ АჱɖྡྷΕಲ˿ ڈڴĶ ˢͳᄘАȿᙌ ჱcᙌܰˢα˂ˀΕᖓӸ܃ܨ ͅʪʪѧιؿhЎˢΕ׳ճਥঢ়ҳ˿ʩӸɐ ነԷိိؿc˥ڳˢι˖ݯˮϳؿኂ ɣɾȹe ԯ ˢ ෮ ɣ С А ς ࡼ ᔄ ട ჱ ࠇ ྦྷ ༦ ˾ d ྦྷ ଊΕྦྷ̯ਝͿؿോhཊ̌ဦਥ௰ንᅥኂɖȹᅚ ২Է Ķ ˢؿАۂɣ˿ီɾ͚ݯᚊჱc ԯɻ˞ԳིᖓɍѕᗫౡോؿА ۂĶᖓ ɾݖdᖓɾᖓຝˀĶ ടΊe αˢࠖωԷਝԀিˮcτȹωܞ ༦ ɍ ࠖ ᅥ ς ܃c ڏᏵ ఒ τ ؿС ʩ Ɂ ሌᖫeСʩɁ༅ХΈိᖚАcࣂ ̳Εᘐௐα˂ˀΕၐɖढ़ᐾϷࠑᅥผc Trittico Botticelliano Ottorino Respighi was born in Bologna on 9th July 1879. He was 12 when he enrolled in the city’s Liceo Musicale where he remained a student until 1900 coming under the influence of Giuseppe Martucci who was one of the very few Italian composers since 1600 not to have written operas. Martucci passed on to Respighi his interest in the instrumental traditions of Italian composers from the 16th and 17th centuries, but it was not initially as a composer that Respighi pursued a professional career in music. He worked as a professional string player, and between 1903 and 1908 played viola in the Mugellini String Quartet. But he was increasingly drawn towards composition, and during two extended concert tours of Russia with the Mugellinis, he took the opportunity to study with Rimsky-Korsakov, under whose guidance he produced his first major orchestral score, a piano concerto. In 1913 he gave up his professional string playing career, settled in Rome, and concentrated on composition. Understandably, for an Italian, he was commissioned to write numerous operas – he wrote 11, the last one completed after his death (in Rome on 18th April 1936) by his wife – but the lessons he learnt from Rimsky-Korsakov resulted in his becoming one of the great orchestrators of the 20th century. So it was that while his compatriots used opera to recreate images and visions of the past, of the present and of the country in which they lived, Respighi could do so just as effectively through purely instrumental means. Perhaps best-known of what we might call his “symphonic operas” are his three spectacular images of Rome – The Fountains of Rome , The Pines of Rome and Roman Festivals – and it was a performance of these he directed during his first tour to the USA in 1927 that prompted the wealthy patroness of the arts, Elizabeth Sprague Coolidge, to commission a further triptych of orchestral tone poems for a concert of new music she was presenting in Vienna on 27th September 1927. ཊ̌ဦਥiɍఝؐొʘСؿೋ RESPIGHI: Trittico Botticelliano ˮณࠑᅥcܰכկཊ̌ဦਥᄘАȹࡨɍࠖ ͚ ᚊ ࠑ e ཊ ̌ ဦ ਥ Һ ց ٲ༠ Ґ ؐ ొ ʘ С ؿ ɍఝೋАᔝʝ֞ဳݯᅥςcЎᅥ྆ஃᅡˈᖓ ɍςɩΛc˞ڏᅡ͝ʼᖚనጙࣂ౨ᖚۂ ၀ ๐ ؿऋ ᄩ e ˢ ֺ ፕ ؿɍ ఝ Ί ೋ ଊ ᔀ כ Ѓᖓ࠷उഥᎂcɖɣลܰ෮ɣСʼᖚ నጙࣂ౨ɍఝടΊؿೋАȿe ܬᖒ ႇ כα c ూ ᖒ ၐ ढ़ ɤ ु ˚ ؿ ܛ ຝᄪcᑹτ˙ˈऋࢂˮؿෲुɾᆰeᅥς˞ɩొೄ ໔ؿᘳ৽ઘѵྭ ၤᖓɾؿဲ ޚcಳ܃ʱۗဳˮݠᅱؿ൰ɠၦςeᅥςԤ͊ ณዷcܫᚭɌΛۜΛhᅥςɻݒԳ෮ᄘ ̀ϳ̀ࠗcԳིؐొʘСࣂؿˤe Respighi decided to translate three Botticelli pictures into orchestral scores, using a considerably smaller orchestra than he had used for his Roman Trilogy in an attempt to mimic the refined clarity of Renaissance art. The three pictures he selected, all housed in the Uffizi Gallery in Florence, are possibly three of the most famous paintings ever to emerge from the Italian Renaissance. Primavera (“Spring”) painted around 1482 depicts the goddess Venus presiding over festivities which include Cupid shooting an arrow of love. The music opens with a great uprising of violins and horn calls (you will hear something very similar as the opening of The Pines of Rome ) before turning into a lively rustic dance from the bassoon. It is playful, fresh and full of joy and colour with, in the middle, a move to deliberately archaic-sounding music to depict the era in which Botticelli lived. ཊ̌ဦਥiɍఝؐొʘСؿೋ RESPIGHI: Trittico Botticelliano ɍɡԞ౩ᖒႇכαcూᖒʿɍɡ ౩ӮᎩ߁ۦዹੱؿౡeؐొʘС˞̀Ϣܨؿԑ ݯᕀҥcࠑᅥɖɐࢰࢴȿ̀ࠓ Ķ ʱဳ ᔶᓫဳվ૨ؿዟۗcด͐ʿɍɡӶ༦ ԓؿݘҳԞԷcٽ༏dࣁபվ௰hɻ˖ ॖʣနЦဍԞᐽ˥ڬɁؐొʘС α ˤ ̀ ؿϢ ઠ ผ ࠑ ᅥ e ፡ ೄ d ፡ ː ೄ ሉ ೄ ɍّݯᅥςԞȹᒨଔਝࠓੱcҐޮᎼജؿ ʿ ɍ ɡ Ԟ Է व ᓿ ᅠ ࢽ ؿԳ ི ݠ ݠଊe The Adoration of the Magi was painted in 1475 and shows the three “wise men from the East” who travelled to pay homage to the infant Jesus. The antiquity of the events depicted by Botticelli is immediately captured by desolate solos from bassoon and oboe – hinting at the long and lonely journey these three Magi undertook across the deserts of Asia – while a medieval plainchant (Veni Emanuel ) is redolent of the ancient church music of Botticelli’s time. Piano, celesta and harp together add a touch of the exotic; perfectly mirroring the effect in the original of three opulently dressed kings’ presence in a decrepit stable. ཊ̌ဦਥiɍఝؐొʘСؿೋ RESPIGHI: Trittico Botticelliano ၐढ़ؿᇻ́ኣ႓ᖒႇכαcٲଊᗫ ؿၐढ़ɤुӵႆΕӴಆଊӸhϹࠓҐ кɐc̒տɤुڬɰΕᖾ࢞࠰cๅௐ ݯၐढ़Ⴎɐʽᐑeཊ̌ဦਥూᖒˮၐढ़ؿ ӴಆкɐࣂcࣵˋႦႦ৽ؿ̨Ɂࢽe ၐढ़Εɣࡼଡک༦cࠑᅥ൙ೕᅹಢcಳ܃ ጙঢ়ٻईΔΉႩʿᘽ˾e The Birth of Venus is believed to date from 1482 and shows the beautiful figure of Venus emerging naked from a shell, being blown towards land by the zephyrs where a goddess of the seasons awaits to hand her a cloak. Respighi summons up a lovely image of the gently lapping water as Venus’s shell is blown gracefully over the sea. The music swells as Venus passes before our eyes and then rapturously drifts off into the distance. Ottorino Respighi 1879-1936 The Pines of Rome The second part of Respighi’s “Roman Trilogy” is arguably the best-known piece of Italian orchestral music ever written. The Pines of Rome, first performed on 14th December 1924 in Rome, is certainly Respighi’s most lavish scores, demanding a huge orchestra including triple woodwind, a piano, celesta and organ as well as a vast battery of percussion instruments. It also calls for a specific gramophone record to be played at one point in the work, making it the first serious orchestral work in history to make use of a pre-recorded tape. Respighi described his intentions in the work as using “nature as a point of departure, in order to recall memories and visions. The centuries-old trees which dominate so characteristically the Roman landscape become testimony for the principal events in Roman life.” Its four sections, which run without a break, follow a vivid programme. The Pine-Trees of the Villa Borghese. “Children are at play in the pine groves of Villa Borghese: they dance round in circles, they play at soldiers, marching and fighting, they are wrought up by their own cries like swallows at evening, they come and go in swarms. Suddenly the scene changes and…” Pine-Trees near a Catacomb. “…we see the shades of the pine-trees fringing the entrance to a catacomb. From, the depths rises the sound of mournful psalm-singing, floating through the air like a solemn hymn, and gradually and mysteriously dispersing.” ඏ̛࠷ɬɾiȹᛌҋིवէيiඏ̛ ࠷ɬ ᖓࠁਂȹউ˃ߘؿɩɬ ؿኹc Ε˂ሣܮؿ๑ɎᛷረྰʗעeէᚗΕe է ᚗ ؿ ᐰ ڬ ȹ ᙠ ፣ ȿ Έ ိ ை ႍ ؿਆ พ ፣ࠑᅌˮe The Pine-Trees of the Janiculum. “A quiver runs through the air: the pine trees of the Janiculum (a wooded hill on the outskirts of the city) stand distinctly outlined in the clear light of a full moon. A nightingale is singing.” The nightingale is drawn from a commercial recording of various bird-songs. ुำe The Pine-Trees of the Appian Way. “Misty dawn on the Appian Way.” (The Appian Way was the first of the great trunk roads leading to Rome from Greece and was built in 312BC by the Roman Censor Appius Claudius Caecus.) “Solitary pine-trees guarding the magic landscape: the muffled, ceaseless rhythm of unending footsteps. The poet has a fantastic vision of bygone glories: trumpets sound and, in the brilliance of the newly-risen sun, a consular army bursts forth towards the sacred road, mounting in triumph to the Capitol.” ຝ͌ʍଽɻʼᓺᘭiሲኮѻ Programme notes by ԓᓙ̀༞ɐɾiԓᓙ̀༞Λᗔؿवኮeԓᓙ ̀༞ܰͅѴ ᖘ ϭ ᖓ ؿ ȹ ૈ ෦ ༞ c ʔ ʏ ک ᾳᖓဟྦւКӓɎ˥࠳ۺeվዟؿ ኹΨᇯടᚓʲঁؿౡߎiಲͤ˅຺ؿүᐰc ຝۗᒔᒔcܛᙩɺᒾeɁྦྷםˀؿ࿘ᘚ τടʨϷؿيؒiɩ໔ᐰᚊcΕᗿؿ ඈ ͮ c ਨ ܧւ ؿ අ ޯ ಳ ໜ ಐ Ϥ ˮ c ౩ ട ु ັ ؿ༞ ༏ Ӷ ˾ c ෮ ݗ ݗΔ ɐ χ ֤ ऋ ؿ Marc Rochester 樂韻因您茁壯 Music Grows Stronger with Your Giving to Annual Fund/Student Ticket Fund 香港管弦樂團(港樂)為非牟利機構，您的支持極為重要。 「常年經費」# 讓港樂進一步提昇藝術水平及推行外展音樂教育 計劃。 「學生票資助基金」# 為全港全日制學生提供半價優惠票。 請踴躍支持您的樂團，推動音樂之餘，兼享捐款扣稅優惠。 The Hong Kong Philharmonic Orchestra is a non-profit making organisation and you can help us by making a donation.
