Full of rhythm and vibrant color, the program features popular works by Khachaturian and Prokofiev.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Like many of Aram Khachaturian\u2019s compositions, his <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Piano Concerto<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> is rich with the colors, sounds, and rhythms of Armenia. The unusual choice of key &#8211; D-flat major &#8211; is just one distinctive feature; the orchestra also includes a flexatone, an instrument with a <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">singing <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">tone reminiscent of a musical saw. The concerto\u2019s appeal rivals that of the most iconic piano works, thanks to its lush orchestration, shifting rhythms, and harmonies rooted in the musical traditions of the South Caucasus. Jean-Paul Gasparian, a rising French piano star with deep Armenian roots, is just an ideal soloist for this piece. A winner of numerous competitions, he has already performed with major international orchestras and now appears for the first time with the Belgrade Philharmonic Orchestra.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Under the direction of regular guest conductor Daniel Raiskin, the orchestra will also perform <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Symphony No. 5<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> by Sergei Prokofiev. This powerful work holds a prominent place among the great <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Fifths<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> in music history &#8211; alongside those by Beethoven, Tchaikovsky, and Shostakovich. Composed in 1944 during wartime, Prokofiev\u2019s <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Fifth Symphony<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> nevertheless reflects a sense of optimism and contentment in his personal life at the time. It remains one of his most beloved and frequently performed pieces to this day.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Only a few seats remain available for this concert and tickets can be purchased at the Belgrade Philharmonic Orchestra\u2019s box office as well as <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/bilet.bgf.rs\/repertoar.php#danas\">online<\/a><\/strong>.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On Friday, May 30, the Belgrade Philharmonic Orchestra takes the stage with pianist Jean-Paul Gasparian, under the baton of Daniel Raiskin, at Kolarac Hall (8 PM).
