The Castilla y León Symphony Orchestra’s season began with a concert that somehow seemed like a pre-session concert, setting the record for what’s to come. Confirmation based on the fact that the new main conductor does not appear until the second concerts and on the results obtained. Role Bernemann From the podium he was a confident and meticulous organiser, perhaps lacking more emphasis on expression, colors, and accents, especially in the first part. They started with Mahler’s Blumine, which is still a simple work in the composer’s great ensemble, with a chord that wasn’t particularly pronounced and wording that didn’t quite hold together when it came to recreating an atmosphere somewhere between the ideal and the poetic, causing a certain sense of over-appreciation.

After Mahler, to the incentive of being able to listen to Violin Concerto From Korngold, violinist’s post added Midori. A translator who never disappoints with a deep perception of work that goes above and beyond. The note allows her to transition between some seductive melodies and that depth, which Midori is able to give to her interpretation, which does not fall into excess, but leans toward the style of the voice. This composition by Korngold, saturated with cinematography, is sophisticated and has melodies that are easy to absorb at the same time, and there was a translator revealing this combination of lyricism and energy for the first movement, the subtlety of modrato nobile and the dynamism of the last time, although it could have impress Greater in its carefree and dancing character. Midori perfected the entire recording, from the purity of the treble to the robustness of the bass. The orchestra was typical in formal aspects when it came to following a soloist, lacking in the fact that the direction applied more personality and rhythmic accents, which became particularly evident in the latter movement.
