Bach's inspiration

Sun, May 10, 2026, 15:00
Johanna Soller (Conductor), Carine Tinney (Soprano), Alex Potter (Alto), Daniel Johannsen (Tenor), Matthias Winckhler (Bass)
How can a text inspire a composer? And what happens if you give three composers the same poem as a source for their music? Conductor Johanna Soller shows us the result in a programme of beautiful music by Bach and the contemporary composer Gregor A. Mayrhofer.A brand-new cantata“In 1726, after years of unimaginable creativity and zest for work, Bach suddenly takes things a bit easier. He composes less, but what he does write has one particular source of inspiration: an anthology of poems from the beginning of the eighteenth century, by Duke Ernst Ludwig of Saxe-Meiningen. In 1726, Bach also performs many cantatas by his cousin Johann Ludwig Bach. And what was Johann Ludwig’s source of inspiration? That same anthology of poems. Now, 300 years later, the young German composer Gregor A. Mayrhofer takes a fresh look at the poetry, to create a brand-new cantata, written especially for this programme.

Veronika Eberle and friends Schubert-Oktett

Sun, Apr 6, 2025, 19:00
Veronika Eberle (Violin), Benjamin Günst (Violin), Pauline Sachse (Viola), Valentino Worlitzsch (Cello), Enno Senft (Contrabass), Thorsten Johanns (Clarinet), Ben Goldscheider (Horn), María José Rielo Blanco (Fagott), José Gallardo (Piano)
String quartets thrive on the homogeneity of the ensemble, achieved through long-term collaboration. Larger ensembles, however, mostly benefit from the confrontation of strong individuals, whose temperaments can unfold within a carefully crafted interpretation. When seven outstanding young soloists gather around the violinist Veronika Eberle to perform Franz Schubert's magnificent Octet, precisely this potentiation of creative energies is to be expected. Far more concise than Schubert's work, with which he famously wanted to "pave the way to the great symphony" in 1824, is the Octet by the young composer Gregor Mayrhofer - an equally poetic and masterful new edition of the mixed octet of strings and winds. Following the concert there will be an artist talk with Anselm Cybinski at the festival center.

ensemble reflektor / Vivi Vassileva / Vimbayi Kaziboni

Mon, Jul 7, 2025, 20:00
Elbphilharmonie, Großer Saal (Hamburg)
ensemble reflektor, Vivi Vassileva (Percussion), Vimbayi Kaziboni (Conductor)
Can discarded objects actually be made to sound? The renowned composer Gregor A. Mayrhofer explores this question in his Recycling Concerto. He wrote it for the virtuoso and energetic percussionist Vivi Vassileva, who received the Leonard Bernstein Award at the Schleswig-Holstein Music Festival in 2023. Old plastic containers and crates are turned into drums, discarded jam jars and bottle caps into shakers, deposit bottles tuned by changing the air pressure via valves into a complete marimba – this is criticism of environmental pollution and the joy of discovering new possibilities and sounds in one. And Vassileva knows how to use this conglomeration of newly created instruments with a dreamlike touch. She is supported by the ensemble reflektor, which has already caused a sensation at the SHMF several times with its innovative programmes and captivating interpretations. The orchestra will provide the crowning finale with Ludwig van Beethoven’s Seventh Symphony.
