Mozart's 'Turkish' Concerto

Kodály Dances of Galánta
Mozart Violin Concerto No.5 ‘turkish’
Dvořák Symphony No.5
Václav Luks - conductor
Alena Baeva - violin
A concert full of colour and character awaits as Václav Luks leads the SCO in a programme that moves between Hungarian fire and Austrian grace.
The evening begins with Kodály’s Dances of Galánta, a dazzling homage to the composer’s childhood memories, shaped by folk rhythms and gypsy flair. At the heart of the programme is Mozart’s Violin Concerto No.5, the beloved ‘Turkish’. Playful and refined, the concerto surprises with its exotic, percussive finale — a flourish that has captivated audiences for centuries. In her second appearance this Season, Alena Baeva brings radiant tone and expressive style to this jewel of the repertoire.
The concert concludes with Dvořák’s Symphony No.5, a rustic and much‑loved work infused with the composer’s love of nature and Bohemian spirit.
