Meidensha presents N-Kyo Symphony Orchestra Masterpieces Concert 2023 Unofficial

Enjoy an exciting moment with a superb melody that will remain in your ears forever. Many widely loved works have melodies that remain in the ear forever. The two composers featured in this issue are known as melody makers. Dvořák, who felt a strong emotional attachment to his native Czech Republic, which was then under the rule of the Austrian Empire, left many works with strong nationalistic elements. His melodies are somehow nostalgic and familiar. The melody that is familiar in Japan as "Homeward Road" was taken from his "Symphony No. 9. The two works that Dvořák completed in such a short period of time as if he were writing down his endlessly overflowing melodies on staves will be performed. The overture "Carnival" was written in only a month and a half, and its lively melody expresses the enthusiasm of the carnival. The "Symphony No. 8," also said to have been written at a fast pace, is a large-scale piece that evokes the nature of Bohemia, with folkloric dance-like melodies and pastoral music appearing one after another. Dvořák called Mozart, whom he admired, "the sun." Mozart, too, was a fast writer, and his autographs are known for being almost completely free of corrections. The second movement of "Piano Concerto No. 23" is full of graceful melodies, and in particular, the second movement is full of melancholy songs that seem to be close to the listener's heart. The conductor is Tatsuya Shimono, who has made Dvořák his life's work. The soloist is Kaito Kobayashi. Kobayashi is a brilliant young conductor who was recognized by Maria Joan Piresch, a Mozart virtuoso, and has studied under her. Please enjoy the time when the most beautiful melodies left behind by a genius tickle your ears and make your heart soar.
