Info zu Mysterium

Die immer noch vernachlässigte Partita Nr. 4 für Klavier und Orchester von Julián Orbón ist eines der wichtigsten Klavier- und Orchesterwerke des spanischen Repertoires und wird hier von Noelia Rodiles und der Oviedo Filarmonía unter der Leitung von Lucas Macías großartig interpretiert. Das Album wird durch die Ersteinspielung des Konzerts für Klavier und Orchester Cloches“ von Manuel Martínez Burgos vervollständigt. Cloches“ basiert auf den Ausdrucksmöglichkeiten von Glocken und wurde nach einer Spektralanalyse verschiedener Glocken aus ganz Europa komponiert. Das Stück bietet eine spirituelle und magische Reise, die mit einem frenetischen und aufregenden Satz endet, einem überschwänglichen und brillant komponierten Finale für ein fantastisches Album!

Noelia has performed as a soloist with orchestras such as the Orquesta Nacional de España, the Filarmónica de la UNAM (Mexico), the Orquesta de Radio Televisión Española, the Heinrich Heine Orchestra of Düsseldorf (Germany), the Filarmónica de Querétaro (Mexico), the Orchesta de la Comunidad de Madrid, la Orquesta Sinfónica del Principado de Asturias, The Soloists of London or the Oviedo Filarmonía, among others, under the direction of maestros such as Pablo González, Lucas Macías, Víctor Pablo Pérez, Ludwig Carrasco, José Ramón Encinar, Michael Thomas, Ramón Tébar or Silke Löhr.

She has given concerts in halls such as the Wigmore Hall in London, Tonhalle Düsseldorf or the Sala Nezahualcóyotl in Mexico City, as well as the main Spanish halls such as the Auditorio Nacional in Madrid or the Palau de la Música in Barcelona.

In her latest album, Mysterium, described as “a truly sensational CD” (Scherzo), Noelia has recorded Julián Orbón’s Partita No. 4 and the world premiere of Cloches, by Manuel Martínez Burgos, together with the Oviedo Filarmonía Orchestra and maestro Lucas Macías, thanks to a Leonardo Scholarship from the BBVA Foundation.

Her previous albums have received awards such as the Melómano de Oro, the Exceptional Record from Scherzo magazine and a nomination for the Latin Grammys. Among them, we can highlight 1823, with the recovery and first recording of the Piano Sonata by Martín Sánchez Allú, together with Schubert's Moments Musicaux, The Butterfly Effect, with works composed for her by Jesús Rueda, David del Puerto or Joan Magrané together with compositions by Schumann, Mendelssohn and Schubert, both with the Eudora Records label, or Ligeti, Schubert (Solfa Records), for which she was already recognized by critics as “one of the most solid values ​​of Spanish pianism, of international pianism” (Scherzo).

Noelia studied at the conservatories of Avilés, Madrid and Berlin with Ana Serrano, Lidia Stratulat, Ana Guijarro and Galina Iwanzowa, and furthered her studies with Dimitri Bashkirov and Claudio Martínez Mehner at the Reina Sofía School of Music in Madrid, where she was awarded the prize for “Most Outstanding Student” in the piano and chamber music departments.
