I would rather chop off your head than have someone else love you when I am gone'. This is a line from the Moravian Robber's Song that Leoš Janáček used for the Overture 'Jealousy ' played here and for his masterly opera Jenůfa. A similar threat emanates from Antonín Dvořák's symphonic poem The Noon Witch, based on an old Czech folk tale. The central work is In Unison by Joey Roukens, by now a familiar composer in the AVROTROS Vrijdagconcert. It is a concerto for two pianos written for the Jussen brothers, who perform here 'as one super pianist on one super piano', according to Roukens. To finish, the radiant Sinfonietta, perhaps Janáček's most beautiful and lively orchestral work.
