Sibelius violinkonsert är numera den mest spelade av alla violinkonserter från 1900-talet. Men tonspråket hör det sena 1800-talet till och musiken är varm och lyrisk, dramatisk och melankolisk. Sibelius, själv violinist, skrev möjligen den konsert han själv hade velat spela – om än på en spelteknisk nivå som var skyhögt över hans egen. På så sätt kan man se violinkonserten som ett farväl till ungdomsdrömmarna om en karriär som violinvirtuos. Den hör till de mer utmanande i genren, det är många violinister som vittnat om det.

Den som tar sig an utmaningen är den unga prisbelönade violinisten Maria Ioudenitch. Hon tog 2021 hem förstapristet i prestigefyllda Ysaÿe International Music Competition och samma år även Tibor Varga International Violin Competition. Maria Ioudenitch är född i Ryssland men flyttade vid två års ålder till USA med familjen. 

Tjajkovskij komponerade sin femte symfoni under några sommarmånader 1888. Han hade på våren klagat över bristande inspiration: ”Är jag utbränd? Inga idéer, ingen lust?” Men den femte blev en vital, känsloladdad och i många avseenden briljant symfoni. Den uruppfördes under tonsättarens ledning i Mariinskijteatern i Sankt Petersburg i november samma år. 

Konserten inleds med svenska Andrea Tarrodis Liguria, musik som tar oss med på en vandring mellan fem små fiskestäder som klamrar sig fast längs klipporna på Italiens nordvästra kust.

Sibelius's violin concerto is now the most performed of all violin concertos from the 20th century. Yet its musical language belongs to the late 19th century, and the music is warm and lyrical, dramatic and melancholic. Sibelius, himself a violinist, possibly wrote the concerto he himself would have wanted to play – albeit on a technical level far beyond his own. In this way, the violin concerto can be seen as a farewell to the youthful dreams of a career as a violin virtuoso. It is among the more challenging in the genre, as many violinists have attested.

Taking on the challenge is the young award-winning violinist Maria Ioudenitch. In 2021, she won first prize in the prestigious Ysaÿe International Music Competition and the same year also the Tibor Varga International Violin Competition. Maria Ioudenitch was born in Russia but moved to the USA with her family at the age of two.

Tchaikovsky composed his fifth symphony during a few summer months in 1888. He had complained about a lack of inspiration in the spring: "Am I burned out? No ideas, no desire?" But the fifth became a vital, emotionally charged, and in many respects brilliant symphony. It premiered under the composer's direction at the Mariinsky Theatre in St. Petersburg in November of the same year.

The concert opens with the Swedish composer Andrea Tarrodis's Liguria, music that takes us on a journey between five small fishing villages clinging to the cliffs along Italy's northwest coast.
