Overview
Masterworks 5: Kate Tamarkin - The Farewell Concerts
Part of the 2016-2017 Charlottesville Symphony at the University of Virginia season
Wagner’s sole comic opera has plenty of pomp and circumstance. That makes his Overture to Die Meistersinger a fitting companion to Sir Edward Elgar’s orchestral masterpiece, the Enigma Variations. Elgar’s appealing character sketches memorialize friends and family, highlighted by the immortal Nimrod Variation. Between Wagner and Elgar, we hear Beethoven’s most poetic and spellbinding piano concerto: a winning combination!
