About this concert
Dans l'opéra Mathis der Maler, Hindemith romance la vie de Mathis Grünewald, un peintre en fuite pendant la Réforme. L'opéra et la fascination suscitée par cet artiste ont été précédés d'une symphonie du même nom. En trois mouvements, Hindemith dépeint un célèbre retable de Grünewald, anges et démons compris. On ne retrouve cependant aucune source d’inspiration digne de ce nom dans le Troisième Concerto pour piano de Rachmaninov, dédié au pianiste Josef Hofmann, qui n'a pas osé relever l'exploit technique exigé par l’œuvre. Rachmaninov a longtemps été le seul interprète de son concerto de 1909. Depuis ses années d’études, le pianiste norvégien Leif Ove Andsnes était impatient de relever le défi?: un grand objectif atteint grâce à son enregistrement de 2023. Enfin, avec La Valse de Ravel, nous dansons en trois temps hors des souvenirs désagréables de la Grande Guerre.
