Cristian Măcelaru, Czech Philharmonic

The Czech premiere of Marsalis's Violin Concerto he wrote for the Scottish virtuoso Nicola Benedetti whom we will also hear in Dvořák Hall

While Bohuslav Martinů flirted with jazz, the American Wynton Marsalis devotes himself to it just as much as to classical music and with such success that he has won Grammy Awards in both categories. We will hear a fascinating overlapping of traditions and genres in the Violin Concerto.
