Arabella Steinbacher

"...simply dazzling": Arabella Steinbacher musizierte mit dem Philharmonia Orchestra unter Lorin Maazel!

Im Herbst dieses Jahres geht Arabella Steinbacher mit dem Philharmonia Orchestra unter Leitung von Lorin Maazel auf große Europa-Tournee. Nun kam es bereits im Vorfeld dieses Projekts zu einer ersten Zusammenarbeit beider Künstler: Am 1. April 2009 sprang Arabella Steinbacher für Julia Fischer im Rahmen eines Konzertes in der "National Concert Hall" in Dublin ein. Sie spielte Max Bruchs Violinkonzert.

Michael Dervan schrieb dazu am 3. April 2009 in der "Irish Times": "In the evening’s concerto, with Arabella Steinbacher and Bruch’s Violin Concerto in G minor replacing the advertised Julia Fischer and Maazel’s own music for violin and orchestra, everything was entirely different. Steinbacher’s was the kind of performance which had her audience hanging on her every note. She played like someone with the most urgent of messages to communicate, and all the skills necessary for that communication. She was as happy to take her listeners by the scruff of the neck as to woo them with heart-melting tenderness. And Bruch’s most famous work gives ample opportunity for both. Maazel, himself an accomplished violinist, matched her every step of the way. It wasn’t just that he was exceptionally attentive to the tiniest of nuances. He also swelled and shrank the nature of the orchestral presence, so that everything his remarkable violinist was doing could be experienced in the best possible light. With soloist, conductor and orchestra all on top form, the effect was to make the Bruch sound like the perfect romantic violin concerto. The audience, naturally, wanted more. Steinbacher obliged, with a performance of Kreisler’s Recitativo and Scherzo-Caprice that was simply dazzling."
