The Vojvodina Symphony Orchestra presented its second program in the current season and in Belgrade, for the first time in its fifteen-year long history playing music in the capital and in the great hall of the Kolarac Endowment, on the most adequate concert stage in the country.
Although the orchestral offer in the capital is good (regular concerts of the Belgrade Philharmonic, the RTS Symphony Orchestra, the New Symphony Orchestra “Makris”, the Artistic Ensemble of the MoD “Stanislav Binički”), the drive and ambition of the young symphonists from Vojvodina to show themselves in Belgrade is worthy of praise and effort, so it is a real shame that their classically designed evening (overture, instrumental concert and symphony) with a selection of famous romantic compositions by Jan Sibelius and Johannes Brahms, and especially the opportunity to hear and support the 24-year-old soloist Robert Lakatos at the beginning of his promising career, did not deserve more interest…
