Sinfonia Rotterdam: Prokofiev, Beethoven and Mozart
Party concert Conrad van Alphen
Prokofiev's modern interpretation of a classical symphony was one of the first compositions that Conrad van Alphen played forty years ago as a young double bass player in a professional orchestra. After that, the Viennese Classics run like a red thread through his heart and career. Hence the choice for Mozart 's theatrical Symphony No. 39 . Finally, Conrad fulfills his wish to perform Beethoven's Fourth Piano Concerto with Cliburn Competition winner Vadym Kholodenko. Don't miss it and join the party!
