One of the first radio orchestras in Europe, established in 1923, Rundfunk-Sinfonieorchester Berlin (RSB) has held an internationally recognized position in the front ranks of German orchestras. The former principal conductors include Sergiu Celibidache, Eugen Jochum, Hermann Abendroth, Rolf Kleinert and Heinz R\u00f6gner, but prior to that there is a fine history line that connects the orchestra with Paul Hindemith, Arthur Honegger, Darius Milhaud, Sergei Prokofiev, Richard Strauss, Arnold Schoenberg, and Igor Stravinsky\u2014all of them have appeared on the podium of the RSB, or have performed their own works as soloists.
\nThis leading orchestra from Berlin is bringing to Varna a top festival program in the best European traditions.
\nSince 2017, Vladimir Jurowski has been Chief Conductor and Artistic Director of the Berlin Radio Symphony Orchestra. In 2023, his concerts, tours and recordings were the highlights of the orchestra\u2019s milestone 100th season. A third-generation musician, Jurowski studied in Moscow, Dresden, and Berlin; his major stage debut was in 1995 at the Wexford Festival and at the Covent Garden. His musical path includes the position of Music Director of the Glyndebourne Festival Opera and Principal Conductor of the London Philharmonic Orchestra (LPO). Since 2021, he has been also General Music Director of the Bavarian State Opera in Munich.
\nViolinist Julia Fischer has it all \u2013 her numerous awards include I prize at \u201cYehudi Menuhin\u201d competition, Federal Cross of Merit, Gramophone Award, German Culture Prize, Cultural Honorary Prize of the City of Munich; she had been guest-performing with the most renowned orchestras in Vienna, Berlin, Dresden, Amsterdam, Chicago, NY, Cleveland and collaborating with prominent conductors, including Herbert Blomstedt, Riccardo Muti, Esa-Pekka Salonen, Christian Thielemann, Michael Tilson-Thomas; she had established a quartet, created children orchestra; she had performed at Nobel Prizes ceremony; in 2024 she had toured with Saint-Martin-in-the Field; and last but not least, there was a concert where she performed Saent-Saens\u2019 violin concerto in the first part and in the second \u2013 Grieg\u2019s piano concerto as a soloist. In Varna, she will be performing Beethoven\u2019s concerto, a milestone in the violin repertoire. Julia Fischer plays a violin by Giovanni Battista Guadagnini (1742).
\nThe second part of the program belongs to the Second Symphony of Johannes Brahms, the long-awaited “successor to Beethoven” (according to Robert Schuman). This is Brahms\u2019 happiest work, shiny and glittering, composed during his vacation in the picturesque Alps \u2013 here he literally \u201cdraws\u201d magnificently with the colors of the orchestra.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
