The shimmering sound of the solo trumpet accompanied by chamber orchestra will dominate the closing concert of the Janáček Philharmonic Ostrava’s chamber series. The programme opens with Johann Sebastian Bach’s Orchestral Suite No. 3, composed around 1730 in Leipzig—one of the pinnacles of Baroque grandeur, renowned above all for its enchanting Air.

The Concerto in E-flat major by Jan Křtitel Jiří Neruda, now popular among trumpeters, was originally written for horn in the 1740s for the Dresden court orchestra. From the late Baroque and early Classical period, the programme moves to the 20th century with the Little Suite for Strings (1974) by the Ostrava composer Eduard Dřízga. A carefree, Mozartian spirit also characterizes Iša Krejčí’s Little Encore Suite for string orchestra (1967).

The remainder of the evening is devoted to short works by the French sisters Lili and Nadia Boulanger—an arrangement of Lili’s violin Nocturne (1911) and a version of Nadia’s song Lux aeterna (1909). The concert concludes in the passionate world of Argentine tango with Adiós Nonino, composed by Astor Piazzolla in New York in 1959 in memory of his father.
