Festival
Lera Auerbach
in The Hague
Unfortunately, this concert has already taken place. But not to worry! We will be playing many more concerts soon.
The Residentie Orkest and contemporary music have gone together for many years. Tonight, on the occasion of her 50th birthday, Lera Auerbach conducts her Fifth Symphony "Paradise Lost. A premiere for the Netherlands. Auerbach is one of the great composers of our time and her oeuvre includes symphonies, concertos, operas, works for chorus, ballets, string quartets, violin and piano works. She has shone in the great halls of the world. How special that she celebrates her 50th birthday in The Hague!
From behind the grand piano , Lera Auerbach herself leads Mozart's dramatic Piano Concerto No. 20, just as the great master did. This is followed by the Dutch premiere of her own Symphony No. 5, about Adam and Eve with the added title "Paradise Lost. After a funeral march about lost paradises, harp, chimes and vibraphone evoke an unreal, magical alternate world.

"Lera is a woman of boundless energy and countless ideas. She writes books, makes beautiful bronze sculptures, does skydiving, but with us she plays Mozart's Piano Concerto No. 20 and conducts the Dutch premiere of her Fifth Symphony. An artist with a language all her own, I look forward to seeing her."
