The delicate sound of the oboe never ceases to delight, even when the soloist is performing virtuoso flourishes, or when broad-ranging, lyrical melodies follow each other. The world-famous Frenchman François Leleux allows us to enjoy both when he plays the Oboe Concerto composed by Antonio Pasculli on the basis of themes from theDonizetti opera La Favorita.Leleux, a great favourite of the Hungarian National Philharmonic Orchestra audience, is not only a woodwind phenomenon, but also an excellent conductor. At the closing evening of the Ferencsik season ticket, we will hear him conduct Mozart’s “Linz” Symphony in C major,as well as Schubert’s Rosamunde Overture and Symphony No. 5 in B major.

 

François Leleux has been a returning guest of theHungarian National Philharmonic Orchestra for many years and is always welcomed with open arms. The versatile Frenchman is not only one of the world’s best oboists, he is also an excellent conductor whose Budapest appearances always bring joy to the ensemble’s audience in both capacities. On his instrument, he will perform a piece written by the Italian oboe virtuoso Antonio Pasculli, who was born in the 19th century but died in the 20th. The Oboe Concerto was based on the themes of his Romantic-era compatriot Donizetti’s opera La Favorita and not only affords the soloist the opportunity to demonstrate a series of impressive turns on his instrument, it also gives him the chance to make his oboe sing in the spirit of Italian bel canto. As a conductor,François Leleux will lead the orchestra through Mozart’s “Linz” Symphony in C major in the first part of the concert, and Schubert’s Rosamunde Overture and Symphony No. 5 in B-flat major in the second. Those visiting the Liszt Academy on this evening can therefore expect invigorating and energetic moments throughout.
