- **Event Description**: Hollenski píanóleikarinn Nikola Meeuwsen flytur píanókonsert nr. 2 eftir Franz Liszt með Sinfóníuhljómsveit Íslands. Nikola hlaut hæfileikaverðlaun Concertgebouw árið 2019 og hin virtu Grachtenfestival verðlaun árið 2022, sem veitt eru árlega ungu hæfileikaríku tónlistarfólki. Ferill Nikola Meeuwsen fór síðan á flug á síðasta ári er hann bar sigur úr býtum í hinni virtu píanókeppni sem kennd er við Elísabetu drottningu af Belgíu. Píanókonsert nr. 2 eftir Franz Liszt skipar nokkuð sérstakan sess í höfundarverki tónskáldsins, hann er í einum löngum þætti sem skiptist í sex smærri hluta og ber píanósnillingnum Franz Liszt glæsilegt vitni.

Það telst til stórtíðinda þegar ný íslensk sinfónía er frumflutt. Landlit er fyrsta sinfónía Páls Ragnars Pálssonar, en Sinfóníuhljómsveit Íslands hefur áður flutt nokkur verka hans, síðast var það fagott-konsertinn PLAY. Landlit sækir innblástur í samnefnt mynd listar verk Valgerðar Briem, föðurömmu Páls, en það er stór mynd röð sem endur speglar áferð gróður- og bergmyndana landsins á óræðan hátt.

Ballettinn um Mandarínann makalausa var frumfluttur í Þýskalandi árið 1926 og olli miklu hneyksli vegna ósiðsamlegs inntaks og var bannaður í kjölfarið. Viðtökurnar voru jákvæðari í Prag ári síðar en sagan um ræningjana þrjá, sem nýta sér unga stúlku til að tæla til sín fórnarlömb, var stöðugt til vandræða og tilefni ritskoðunar. Það var ekki fyrr en Bartók skrifaði konsertsvítuna sem hér heyrist að tónlistin fór að hljóma víðar og þessi fjölbreytta, kraftmikla tónlist varð eftirlæti tónleikagestum víða veröld. 

*Píanóleikarinn Denis Kozhukhin sem upphaflega átti að koma fram sem einleikari í sinfóníu nr. 4 eftir Karol Szymanowski þurfti því miður að afboða komu sína. Í hans stað stígur hollenski píanóleikarinn Nikola Meeuwsen á svið og flytur Píanókonsert nr. 2 eftir Franz Liszt. Tónleikarnir bera nú heitið Liszt og Landlit.

It is always considered big news when a new Icelandic symphony is premiered. Landlit is Páll Ragnar Pálsson's first symphony, but the Iceland Symphony Orchestra has previously performed several of his works, most recently the bassoon concerto PLAY. Landlit draws inspiration from the eponymous painting by Valgerður Briem, Páll's paternal grandmother, which is a large series of paintings that reflect the texture of Iceland's vegetation and rock formations in an ambiguous way.

Dutch pianist Nikola Meeuwsen performs Piano Concerto No. 2 by Franz Liszt with the Iceland Symphony Orchestra. Nikola received the Concertgebouw Young Talent Award in 2019 and the prestigious Grachtenfestival Award in 2022, which is awarded annually to young, outstanding musicians. Nikola Meeuwsen's career took off last year when he emerged victorious in the renowned piano competition named after Queen Elisabeth of Belgium. Piano Concerto No. 2 by Franz Liszt holds a rather special place in the composer's body of work: it is written as a single, continuous movement divided into six smaller sections and stands as a brilliant testament to the virtuosity of the piano master Franz Liszt.

The ballet The Miraculous Mandarin was premiered in Germany in 1926 caused a great scandal due to its immoral content and was subsequently banned. The reception was more positive in Prague a year later, but the story of the three robbers who use a young girl to lure their victims was a constant source of trouble and censorship. It was not until Bartók wrote the concert suite heard here that the music began to resonate more widely, and this diverse, dynamic music became a favourite of concertgoers around the world.

*Denis Kozhukhin, who was originally scheduled to appear as soloist in Symphony No. 4 by Karol Szymanowski, has unfortunately had to cancel. In his place, pianist Nikola Meeuwsen will perform Piano Concerto No. 2 by Franz Liszt.
