Program
The nickname "Kaddish" refers to a Jewish prayer and, despite the fact that the work is dedicated to president John F. Kennedy (assassinated three weeks before the premiere), it’s an ode to peace, a spectacular and intense work that speaks of the love between peoples. It premiered in Israel and stirred up much controversy due to the alleged profanity contained in the text, but experts in Hebrew philosophy have their approval it and it became a resounding success. Max Bruch wrote symphonies, operas, choral music, etc. But the most-performed is this wonderful and virtuosic concerto for violin, premiered by the legendary Joseph Joachim exactly 150 years ago.
