On the night of May 5th, the “April Fair” (or Seville Fair) begins with the “pescaíto dinner” .

The April Fair or Seville Fair is a spring festival held annually in the city of Seville , where the public gathers in a large area called the Real de la Feria , with streets with temporary booths, decorated with lanterns, through which riders and horse-drawn carriages circulate and through which about 500,000 visitors pass daily. It is celebrated one or two weeks after Easter and coincides with the bullfights in the Plaza de la Maestranza . It has a great economic and social impact on the city and has been declared a Festival of International Tourist Interest .

Its origins date back to August 25, 1846, when two councilors, Narciso Bonaplata (Catalan) and José María de Ybarra (Basque), businessmen settled in the city, drafted a proposal that they took to the City Council requesting the holding of an agricultural and livestock fair.

Los del Río are a Spanish musical group made up of Antonio Romero Monge (1948) and Rafael Ruiz Perdigones (1947), residents of the Sevillian town of Dos Hermanas . They joined together in 1962, when they were fourteen years old, to participate in the program " Ronda del Domingo " (Radio Sevilla, Cadena SER) and in 1965 they appeared for the first time on national television, debuting in Madrid in the most popular flamenco tablaos of the time. Their greatest success would come in 1993 when they composed Macarena; the song became a social phenomenon that would end up crossing borders and generations, breaking all imaginable records.

Today Los del Río offer us the song "Seville has a special color," composed by the Andalusian singer and composer Romero San Juan (San Juan de Aznalfarache 1948-2005).

Piotr Tchaikovsky (1840-1893) was a Russian composer who graduated from the St. Petersburg Conservatory and wrote works in various musical genres, although his greatest success was achieved with his ballets. Unfortunately, his personal life was plagued by continuous personal crises from the age of 14, when his mother died, and also as a consequence of his repressed homosexuality, which forced him into a marriage that only lasted a few months. He wrote more than 150 compositions, including piano works, quartets, suites, symphonies, concertos, chorales, cantatas, operas, and ballets. He died at the age of 53 and is considered one of the greatest composers in history.

Catalogue of Tchaikovsky 's works . His works, like those of Brahms mentioned above, are classified by their opus number.

Tchaikovsky’s Piano Concerto No. 1 in B flat minor, opus 23, was written by Tchaikovsky between November 1874 and February 1875, being revised for the first time in 1879 and a second time in December 1888. The concerto consists of three movements, of which today we offer the third, Allegro con fuoco , performed by Khatia Buniatishvili , an internationally renowned Georgian pianist based in Paris who became a French citizen in 2017, accompanied by the Orchestre De La Suisse Romande conducted by Maestro Christoph Koncz .

Johann David Heinichen (1683 - 1729) was a German Baroque composer and music theorist who studied in Venice and was engaged at the court of Augustus II of Poland in Dresden. He was born in the small town of Krössuln , near Weissenfels . As a young man he received organ and harpsichord lessons from the composer Johann Kuhnau and in 1710 moved to Venice , where he wrote two operas for the Teatro alla San Angelo , Mario and Le passioni per troppo amore , both of which premiered in 1713 to great acclaim. In Venice he also came into contact with many musicians and composers, including Antonio Vivaldi, Antonio Lotti and Francesco Gasparini . He remained in Italy until 1716, when he was offered the post of Kapellmeister at the court of Dresden , which had one of the finest musical chapels in Europe. During this period he composed a great deal of music, but his health deteriorated as a result of tuberculosis and he died prematurely at the age of 46.

Arimaz Kamera Orkestra. This musical group was created more than a decade ago under the shadow of the Musika Eskola de Tolosa , with the aim of completing the training of string instrument students. Composed by students and former students of the School, it has the active participation of the Center's teachers and has offered numerous concerts at various festivals such as the Aire Baroque Festival, the San Sebastián Sacred Music Series, the Lasarte Musical Week, the Hondarribi Sacred Music Series, the Azkoitia International Romantic Organ Series ... addressing the most varied programs. Last season, in addition to participating for the third time in the Aire Baroque Festival in Ordizia , it performed Mozart 's opera " Basiten und Bastiene " at the Leidor Theater in Tolosa .

Today, this ensemble offers Heinichen 's Oboe Concerto in G minor , with Itziar Lujanbio as solo oboe and Maestro Kepa Martinez de Albeniz conducting. The concert is divided into three movements: I (0.03") ALLEGRO - II (5.15") PIZZICATO - III (7.25") VIVACE.

Tchaikovsky's Violin Concerto is one of the most renowned and difficult violin concertos to perform. It is a concerto that leaves two indelible impressions: the inherent virtuosity of its composition and the beauty of its melodies. The first movement (0:53), Allegro moderato, takes on classical dimensions and forms. It begins with a brief, lyrical introduction in which the melodies that make up the rest of the movement are barely hinted at; it is not a dramatic introduction, as the soloist completes it with a cadenced, ornamental passage. From this moment on, various melodies follow one another, linked around the formal thread generated by changes in mood. The second movement (20:57), Canzonetta: Andante , begins with somewhat severe gestures. Although described as a canzonetta , it is more similar to a chorale than a light song , due to its homophonic writing and slow movement. It begins with a chordal passage played by the woodwinds, accompanied by the horns. The soloist then intones a traditional Russian melody with simple accompaniment. Due to its short duration and relatively calm atmosphere, the canzonetta serves as a seamless bridge to the third movement (27:45), Allegro vivacissimo , inspired by traditional Russian themes that lend themselves to development through multiple variations in orchestration, rhythm, and the melody itself. The final movement brings the concerto to a close with a burst of energy and brilliance.

Today, it's presented by German violinist Arabella Steinbacher , recognized in Germany and internationally as one of the foremost violinists for her refined technique, musical sensitivity, and interpretive depth. She is accompanied by the Tchaikovsky Symphony Orchestra (Moscow Radio Symphony Orchestra), conducted by Russian maestro Vladimir Fedoseyev .

Sevillanas , formerly called seguidillas sevillanas , are a typical music and dance of Andalusia , especially in Seville, Huelva and Cádiz , danced in pairs and of a festive character. The music has its origins in the seguidilla manchega , from which it inherits the structure, but due to contact with other music of Andalusia , its sound has been flamencoized. As for the dance, which would be added later, it takes its movements from the bolera school . They are not a palo of flamenco properly speaking, because its dance is choreographed and its lyrics have been simplified to accompany the dance, although it does bring together various aesthetic elements of flamenco . Sevillanas are always performed in series of four and are composed of a simple seguidilla of four verses and a chorus of three.

Herbert Grönemeyer (born 12 April 1956) is a German musician, singer, and actor. Since 1984, all of Grönemeyer 's studio albums have reached number one in the German charts. In 1998, his wife, Anna , and brother, Wilhelm , both died of cancer within three days of each other; he was deeply affected by this. His grief was reflected in the songs on his 2002 album, Mensch , which has sold 3.7 million copies, making it the best-selling album in German music history. As an actor, Grönemeyer has also enjoyed notable success. He has appeared in numerous German films, of which Wolfgang Petersen 's Das Boot was an extraordinary international success.

The Brahms Quartet premiered in Hamburg in 1861; Schoenberg orchestrated the work in 1937, and it was premiered by the Los Angeles Philharmonic under then-Music Director Otto Klemperer at one of the orchestra's Saturday Night Concerts. Schoenberg explained the reason for his orchestration almost a year after the premiere. The composer wrote: "1) I like the piece. 2) It is rarely played. 3) It is always played very badly, because the better the pianist, the louder he plays, and you can't hear anything from the strings. I wanted to hear everything at once, and I succeeded." ( excerpted from the article by John Mangum).

Today we can see it choreographed by George Balanchine in a performance by Damian Woetzel with the New York City Ballet .

Swing music , also known as swing jazz or simply swing , is a style of jazz that originated in the United States towards the end of 1920. Swing uses a rhythm section consisting of piano, double bass and drums; brass instruments such as trumpets and trombones; woodwind instruments such as saxophones and clarinets; and very occasionally, string instruments such as violin or guitar; it also preferably settles on medium and fast tempos and generalizes melodic riffs (short repetitive phrases). The characteristic ensemble of the style was the Big Band , with the role of the soloist acquiring great importance. Glenn Miller, Fletcher Henderson, Benny Goodman, Duke Ellington and Count Basie stood out in this style.

Swing dance. Swing is a group of social dances that developed with the swing style of jazz music in the 1920s and 1940s, with the origins of each dance predating the popular " swing era ". Hundreds of swing dance styles were developed; those that have survived beyond that era include the Lindy Hop, the Balboa, the Collegiate Shag , and the Charleston . The term " swing dance " was not commonly used to identify a group of dances until the second half of the 20th century . Historically, the term swing referred to the style of jazz music, which inspired the evolution of the dance.
