Łucja Madziar, first concertmaster of the ORF Symphony Orchestra, and her piano partner Thomas Hoppe have formed a musical duo since 2022. The multi-award-winning violinist is a regular guest at music festivals (Beethovenfest Bonn, Festspiele Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, Paderewski-Festival) and can look back on solo appearances, e.g. in the Grand Hall of the Vienna Konzerthaus. As a soloist, she has performed several times with the Essen Philharmonic Orchestra, the Lower Saxony State Orchestra Hanover, the Württemberg Chamber Orchestra Heilbronn, the Neubrandenburg Philharmonic Orchestra and the Folkwang Chamber Orchestra Essen. Thomas Hoppe is regarded as an outstanding piano partner and has performed as such with artists such as Itzhak Perlman, Antje Weithaas, Vilde Frang and Tabea Zimmermann. The Berlin pianist completed his training at the Juilliard School in New York City. As a member of the ATOS Trio, he performs worldwide and has won many prizes and awards.
Camilla Nylund’s dramatic soprano has all it takes for the grand operas by Richard Wagner and Richard Strauss. But the Finn, who was recently hailed at the Elbphilharmonie for her »American Songbook« project, can also sing a couple of smaller numbers. This is particularly exciting when, with Helmut Deutsch, one of the most sought-after accompanists of all is at the piano. Alban Berg’s »Sieben frühe Lieder« (Seven Early Songs) are real gems and sound romantic in their own particular way – and tremendously sensitive. You can hear a lot of Gustav Mahler here! Especially as a composition pupil of Arnold Schönberg, the very young composer also makes forays to the limits of tonality here, however. Once older, he stubbornly held back many of his songs, but chose to release these seven. Obviously, he was particularly fond of them. With their warm, scintillating tenderness, which intensifies to a frenzy, they open up completely new horizons. There is perhaps no help for anyone who does not get goosebumps when the roses burst open in Theodor Storm’s »Nachtigall« (Nightingale)…
The Essen Philharmonic's tenth symphony concert features Weber's "Sommerwind", a nature-inspired composition based on a poem by Bruno Wille. Zemlinsky's "Seejungfrau" surprises with its narrative power and poetic mood. The program also includes Mendelssohn's famous Violin Concerto, one of the most frequently performed works of its kind.

Götz Alsmann, a unique entertainer, delights audiences on radio and television. The music scholar presents famous works from the current Essen Philharmonic's program. With charm and humor, Alsmann shows that knowledge increases enjoyment, without needing to be a scholar to enjoy classical music.
Sound sorceress Simone Young will be conducting the BRSO for the third time in a program that she herself has chosen. It includes Anton Webern’s Five Pieces for Orchestra, in which Webern condenses the atonal language established by Schönberg into a miniature form (the fourth movement consists of only six measures). This masterful aphorism forms an antipode to the grotesque atmosphere of Alban Berg’s Three Pieces for Orchestra, which the 29-year-old composer wrote as an apprentice piece for the 40th birthday of his teacher, Arnold Schönberg: it arises out of distorted sound masses that gradually coalesce into music. Zemlinsky’s magnificent Lyric Symphony completes the program: eclectic, sophisticated, and one of his most important compositions, in which soloists Maria Bengtsson and Michael Volle will add their own personal touches.
