Anya Bihlmaier in Tchaikovsky
Recently, Anja Bihlmaier became the permanent chef of the Residentie Orkest The Hague. A position she was really looking forward to, she told Omroep West. "The interesting things in life are the risks and the really, really strong emotions, really, really soft, really strong. That's what we're going to do, that's what they want to do, and that's what I really enjoy.' There are plenty of great feelings in Tchaikovsky's Fifth Symphony. Written in an idyllic country cottage in the hills around Moscow, with memories of Florence. A waltz that Tchaikovsky once heard on the street there passes by. Dark and light alternate in this melancholic but colourful work.
