At the concert, a new jazz and Mozart-inspired composition by <strong>Kristjan Randalu<\/strong> will be premiered.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\" style=\"text-align: left;\">Composer Kristjan Randalu invited the Estonian violin virtuosso <strong>Hans Christian Aavik<\/strong> to perform the new piece at the &#8220;Aavik in Salzburg&#8221; series. According to Aavik, he has always been fascinated by jazz, and after listening to Randalu&#8217;s arrangement, he became interested in how jazz-flavoured Mozart would sound on a violin.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\" style=\"text-align: left;\">&#8220;Aavik&#8217;s bright timbre and playing that forgets technical boundaries was fresh to my ears. At the same time, the idea connected with one of my ongoing interests: how to find material from the older repertoire that creates a new impulse with its melodic, harmonic or rhythmic elements. I have been attracted to a large part of opera music, while the aesthetics of opera singing is somewhat foreign to me in today&#8217;s context. So the question arose, could one aria also function as an instrumental piece? The premiere gives the answer, said the composer,\u201d shared Randalu.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\" style=\"text-align: left;\">The new work is entitled Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart \/ Kristjan Randalu O wie will ich triumphieren (1782\/2024) and it will be performed by Hans Christian Aavik and the Tallinn Chamber Orchestra on April 18 at Mustpeade Maja in Tallinn\u2019s old town. In addition, Mozart&#8217;s Violin Concerto No. 4 and Mozart&#8217;s Symphony No. 41 (the Jupiter Symphony), will be performed by the same musicians at the concert.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp; On April 18, the concert series &#8220;Aavik in Salzburg&#8221; will continue at Mustpeade Maja in Tallinn\u2019s old town.
