Live recording from the Teatro Petruzzelli, Bari, Italy, 1 May 2025, 11:00 am CET

With its brick-red façade, a gleaming white entrance area and a magnificent red and gold auditorium, the venue for this year’s Europakonzert, Bari’s Teatro Petruzzelli, is an architectural jewel. Under the direction of Riccardo Muti, the Berliner Philharmoniker  present a mixed programme of Italian and German music. Rossini’s rousing William Tell Overture and the atmospheric ballet music from Verdi’s opera The Sicilian Vespers exude Italianità. Completing the programme, the dusky mixture of yearning and consolation in Brahms’ Second Symphony make the work a seminal example of late German Romanticism.

Javier Perianes plays Scarlatti & Albéniz from the Real Alcázar of Seville

If Scarlatti, an adopted Spaniard, had lived in the 20th century, he would have composed a work like “Iberia” by Albéniz. If Albéniz had worked for the Spanish kings in the 18th century, he would have created endlessly imaginative piano sonatas strongly influenced by Spanish folklore. A true admirer of his former colleague, in the real life Albéniz often included sonatas by Scarlatti in his own concerts as a pianist. This programme explores the many parallels between the two composers and leaves one question hanging in the air: Could it have been the other way around? The musical performance takes place in evening atmosphere, without audience in the Salón de la Bóvedas of the Real Alcázar. Beside that the viewer get to know the beauty of the different halls and patios of the Alcazár, e.g. in the Salón de los Embajadores (Ambassadors' Hall) or the Patio de las Doncellas (Girls' Courtyard). Javier explains the musical significance of both composers and why the Alcázar of Seville is the ideal place to perform this repertoire.
