Daniel Barenboim conducts Verdi
Daniel Barenboim has conducted acclaimed performances of the great Verdi operas. In this concert, he introduces works by the composer which were not initially intended for publication and offer insights into Verdi’s emotional life. The first work is his only string quartet, in a version for orchestra, in which operatic intensity is combined with elegance and melancholy. We also hear Verdi’s expressive Quattro pezzi sacri.
