Tchaikovsky in exceptional condition

Tchaikovsky's Violin Concerto in D Major, Op. 35, is one of the major benchmarks of the repertoire: lyrically radiant, technically unyielding, and still electrifying in its tension. The Hofer Symphoniker places this work at the center of an evening focused on passion, sound richness, and utmost virtuosity. Josef Špaček brings precisely the mix of disciplined technique, color sensitivity, and concentrated stage presence for which he is internationally praised.

Ravel and Dutilleux: Colors that glow

After the violin concerto, Ravel's Ma Mère l’Oye opens up a finely woven fairy tale world in which orchestral colors shimmer like in twilight. Henri Dutilleux’s Le Loup complements this tonal space with rare sophistication and tells in Martijn Dendievel's version of an early, successful ballet music with dramatic depth. The program combines great melody with subtle orchestral art, making the evening enticing for committed classical fans as well as for curious newcomers seeking their first great concert experience.

A soloist with an international profile

Josef Špaček is one of the leading violinists of his generation. His website lists upcoming performances with renowned orchestras in Europe, Asia, and the USA; it also points to awards such as those from the Queen Elisabeth Competition, the Michael Hill International Violin Competition, and the Carl Nielsen International Violin Competition. Reviews highlight his sound culture, athleticism, and pronounced, controlled stage presence. For Hof, this means a solo part with absolute brilliance.

More than just a concert: introduction, masterclass, and concert atmosphere

What makes this evening special is also the framework: Špaček will give a masterclass for students of the music school the day before. The Hofer Symphoniker are making a statement for musical education and closeness to the audience. Those who arrive early will also experience the concert introduction at 6:30 PM and get an exciting look behind the works before the Festsaal immerses in a concentrated live atmosphere.
