A Whirling Play of Colors for Piano and Trumpet<\/p>\n

The gifted pianist and improviser Gabriela Montero returns to the Zurich Chamber Orchestra following her thrilling performance of Dmitri Shostakovich\u2019s Piano Concerto No. 1 about two years ago. Shostakovich himself viewed this work\u2014composed in 1933 during a period of artistic freedom before the grueling scrutiny of censorship in later years\u2014as a \u00abmocking challenge\u00bb to the traditional solo concerto. A glance at the instrumentation makes this clear. Shostakovich pairs the solo piano with a trumpet that also takes on a solo role\u2014performed in this program by Simon H\u00f6fele. And then there\u2019s the music: an entertaining\u2014in the best sense of the word\u2014and at times breakneck game of wits, full of quotations, humorous allusions, and surprising twists. This original stroke of genius is preceded by the fleeting, playful miniatures *Visions fugitives* by Sergei Prokofiev\u2014originally written for piano\u2014as well as two warmly illuminated reflections on nature by Leo\u0161 Jan\u00e1\u010dek and the British late-Romantic composer Ruth Gipps.<\/p>\n
