Three major events of classical music
Of these three rendezvous with the Regional Orchestra Cannes Provence-Alpes-Côte-d’Azur in the heart of the beautiful Palais des Congrès, two concerts already took place. On March 5, the prestigious violinist Nicolas Dautricourt, one of the best French violonists interpreted the Symphony No. 85 in B flat major, The Queen by Haydn and Mendelssohn‘s romantic concerto No. 2 opus 64 in E minor. Contemporary compositions by Thierry Escaih, three times named Songwriter of the Year at the Victoires de la Musique, also were at the evening program.
The evening of April 1st was more melodious with the divine flutist Jocelyn Aubrun who played Mozart and Rossini with Il Signor Bruschino, Osia it Figlio per Azzardo, and the Symphony No. 3 in D Major by Schubert.

Brams & Haydn on May 7 program
Saturday, May 7th will be the last great rendezvous in the company of the Cannes PACA Regional Orchestra and the brilliant soloist violinist Tedi Papavrami, playing on a Stradivarius of 1727 (the Reynier). Both will perform Brahms‘ Violin Concerto in D major Op 77.
Throughout the concerto, Brahms indulges in his lyrical themes, running towards radiant, melodious music. Rarely will he let him go to such dynamism, such luxuriance of rhythm.
Already acclaimed by his contemporaries, Brahms’ only concerto for violin still remains a major part of the repertoire. The Symphony No. 95 in C minor by Haydn with the soloist Tedi Papavrami: Haydn transcends the classicism, which he is, with Mozart one of two poles. He is the main link between the end of the Baroque era and the beginnings of Romanticism. Constrained to a frantic pace of production but very free in his choice of music, Haydn has significantly changed the symphony by the number and quality of his compositions of which he has set the real rules.
