La Orquesta Sinfónica Nacional del Instituto Nacional de Bellas Artes y Literatura presenta un programa con el concierto para fagot de Mozart y la cantata Dona Nobis Pacem de Vaughan Williams, bajo la batuta de James Burton, director invitado, y la participación solista del fagotista Dag Jensen, la soprano Christina Pier, el barítono Iván Griffin, Solistas Ensamble de Bellas Artes, Coro de Madrigalistas de Bellas Artes y el Ensamble Escénico Vocal del Sistema Nacional de Fomento Musical. La Obertura En el sur de Edward Elgar fue estrenada en mayo de 1904 por el propio compositor al frente de la Orquesta Hallé, y está inspirada en las impresiones de su visita en 1903 a las playas de Alassio, en la Riviera italiana. Con la participación solista del renombrado fagotista noruego, Dag Jensen, la Orquesta Sinfónica Nacional interpreta de Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart el Concierto para fagot y orquesta KV 191, que muestra, al igual que numerosas obras de su catálogo, la profunda comprensión del compositor de la naturaleza y la capacidad de los instrumentos de aliento. Dag Nació en Horten, Noruega. Comenzó a estudiar el fagot a los siete años con Robert Rönnes. Continuó su formación con Torleiv Nedberg en la Academia Noruega de Música de Oslo. Tuvo su primer puesto en la Filarmónica de Bergen a los 16 años de edad. Estudió más tarde con Klaus Thunemann en Hannover. De 2003 a 2005, Jensen fue fagot principal de la Orquesta del Festival de Lucerna fundada por Claudio Abbado. Concluye el programa de este concierto de la Orquesta Sinfónica Nacional con la monumental cantata del compositor inglés Ralph Vaughan-Williams, Dona Nobis Pacem (Danos la paz), para coro y gran orquesta, escrita y estrenada en 1936, ante los presagios de un posible conflicto bélico mundial. La obra fue comisionada por la sociedad coral Huddersfield para festejar su centenario. Los textos que utilizó Vaughan Williams +••.••(...)) provienen de fuentes diversas: poemas de Walt Whitman escritos a raíz de la Guerra Civil estadounidense, fragmentos de la Biblia y de la misa Católica. La frase Dona Nobis Pacem aparece en distintos momentos para reiterar la plegaria por la paz. Con el esplendor de la visión sonora de Vaughan Williams, esta cantata se suma, con el Réquiem de Guerra de Benjamin Britten y Un hijo de nuestro tiempo, de Michael Tippett, al prodigioso repertorio antibélico inglés del siglo XX. Originario de Londres, James Burton, director huésped, cantó desde niño en el coro de la Abadía de Westminster. Se graduó en el St. John College de Cambridge, donde estudió dirección coral. Tiene una maestría en dirección orquestal por el Conservatorio Peabody, donde estudió con Frederik Prausnitz y Gustav Meier. James Burton es también un reconocido compositor, y sus obras y arreglos corales han sido interpretados internacionalmente. Considerado como uno de los más destacados directores corales del Reino Unido, es actualmente Director Coral de la Orquesta Sinfónica de Boston y el Director del Coro del Festival Tanglewood.
