TCHAIKOVSKY, Pyotr Ilyich
Symphony No. 6 in B minor, Op. 74 “Pathétique”
IV. Adagio lamentoso
Pablo González, guest conductor
Freixenet Symphony Orchestra of the Reina Sofía School of Music
In this dress rehearsal, Maestro Pablo González discusses the attitude one must have when facing a concert and how to prepare for that moment. He makes some corrections to rhythm and dynamics and insists on some problematic points. The ritardando has to be more exaggerated, more “pathetic”. Returning to the beginning of the movement, the violins have to avoid breaking the phrasing; it has to be longer, emphasizing the first note. There are also some indications for brass and woodwinds.
