Stephen Sondheim,
world famous for composing Sweeney Todd and the
text of West Side Story, turns 75 this year.
The combination of mezzo soprano Monique Scholte
and tenor Terence Mierau promises
an evening of swinging performances of a selection of
Sondheim's works. Canadian stage director Brent
Krysa will also portray the more intimate atmosphere
of Sondheim's songs through his staging. The program will
be introduced by René Boogaard,
one of Holland's foremost experts on the life and works
of Sondheim. Just as the original arrangements, the accompaniment
will be performed by two pianists.

Peter-Jan
Wagemans (1952), one of Holland's most famous
present day composers, sees himself as an outspoken European
composer responsible for developing and renewing European
musical traditions. A composer who saw himself in a similar
light was Franz Schreker (1878 –
1934). Wagemans greatly admired Schreker and even used
his works as a source of inspiration for some of his compositions.
In this program the ideas and lieder of both composers
are heard together.

Based
in The Netherlands, composers Iván Fischer
and Matthias Kadar share the spotlight
in this program. Iván Fischer is well known as
conductor of internationally famous orchestras such as
the Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra and as founder and conductor
of the Budapest Festival Orchestra. The young composer
Matthias Kadar (1977) received his musical training in
The Netherlands and studied with Dutch composers such
as Theo Loevendie. In this program Iván Fischer
will conduct the National Youth Chorus
in premières of new works of both composers, including
the première of Fischer’s Felix Meritis-cantate
and a new composition of Kadar for voice and instruments.
