»Als ich 85 wurde, dachte ich: jetzt oder nie. Ich habe keine Verpflichtungen als Chefdirigent mehr, jetzt muss ich etwas für Stenhammar tun.« Inzwischen ist Herbert Blomstedt 94 – und seiner Mission mit ungebrochener Hingabe treu geblieben. Auch beim BRSO hat der hochverehrte Maestro bereits zweimal Werke seines schwedischen Landsmannes dirigiert. Nun macht er uns mit dem zwischen 1904 und 1907 entstandenen Zweiten Klavierkonzert bekannt, einem großen spätromantischen Opus voller schwelgerischer Melodien, zupackender Dramatik und Intensität. Am Klavier: der ebenfalls schwedische Pianist Martin Sturfält, der das Werk bereits mehrfach unter Blomstedts Leitung gespielt hat. Stenhammars wichtigste »Idole« waren Sibelius und Beethoven, und so fügt sich Beethovens Eroica perfekt in die Dramaturgie des Abends ein.

Information about the programme
“When I turned 85 I thought: it’s now or never. I have no more duties as principal conductor; now I must do something for Stenhammar.” Since then Herbert Blomstedt has turned 94, and he has remained true to his mission with unbroken commitment. The highly esteemed maestro has already presented works by his Swedish countryman on two occasions with the BRSO. Now he will introduce us to Stenhammar’s Second Piano Concerto, a grand late-romantic opus full of soaring melodies, riveting drama and harrowing intensity. The soloist Martin Sturfält, likewise from Sweden, has already played the piece several times under Blomstedt’s baton. And as Stenhammar’s major “idols” were Sibelius and Beethoven, the “Eroica” Symphony fits perfectly into the concert’s dramatic scheme.
