Programme Note
TIVOLI, A CHILDHOOD MEMORY
For most people TIVOLI is a conception, an imagination not only found in dreams, but materialized
in a flowering, fanciful garden near The Town Hall of Copenhagen, where one can stroll around in the middle of the human tide of the town.
Here you can also meet violent psychical thrills in the switchback, look at the oriental buildings and be wondering and surprised at the magic in the Funhouse.
But above all you can listen to live music mixed with banging champagne corks and fireworks, that crackles and crashes in the warm summer nights.

En kæntret Champagnegalop og en tur i rutsjebanen, garneret med kineserier og et orkestralt festfyrværkeri. Jo vist, Bent Lorentzens nye værk "Tivoli" tager sin titel alvorligt! Men bortset fra det er det sjældent man oplever et så veludviklet musikalsk lune, som det Lorentzen folder ud i sin nye koncert for akkordeon og orkester. Og sjældent oplever man et så regulært underholdende værk blive holdt over dåben.
Der var en herlig kinesisk kolorit i satsen "Det kinesiske tårn" og i tredjesatsen, der hedder "Rutsjebane" rummer en herlig hengiven poesi...det er velskrevet og klingende musik. Den fungerer fremragende - og så er det også smuk musik, man bliver glad af at lytte til.
