Themes & Variations
Heidelberg Symphony Orchestra - The Performing Arts Centre, Ivanhoe Girls' Grammar School


Program Info:
Themes & Variations explores the range of interpretation and inventiveness of composers.

Copland’s The Red Pony Suite is based on John Steinbeck’s beautiful story of a boy and his horse.

Crussell’s works are noted for their lyricism, rich harmonies and craftsmanship.

Rossini composed Introduction,Theme and Variations at the age of 18, remaining a virtuosic staple for clarinetists.

Hindemith sketched a series of movements on themes by Carl Maria von Weber for a ballet. While the collaboration fell through, Hindemith revised it into the Metamorphosis; a splashy, bombastic yet delicate work. Every instrument is showcased in this thematic play, as melodies escape from one and jump to the other.

Program:
Aaron Copland - The Red Pony Suite. The Red Pony is a film score composed for Lewis Milestone's 1949 production
Barnhard Crussell - Clarinet Concerto No. 2 in F minor Op.5
