Festive Concert at Advent

Four choirs come togeather in this festive Christmas concert with the HansePhilharmonie Hamburg. Under the baton of Mike Steurenthaler, they perform a programme that is as festive as it is contemplative in the Laeiszhalle Grand Hall.

Konzert zum 1. Advent Haydn "Alleluja"

Conductor Bas Wiegers and the Munich Chamber Orchestra share a mutual appreciation for curiosity and versatility. Wiegers, appointed "Associated Conductor," embodies these qualities, much like Joseph Haydn. This concert features Haydn's festive Symphony in C major ("Alleluja") and the lively Cello Concerto in C major, performed by Nicolas Altstaedt. Altstaedt will also premiere a new cello piece by Márton Illés, whose expressive style reflects the same curiosity and versatility.

Advent concert by the Hamburger Liedertafel

The Hamburger Liedertafel of 1823, the oldest male choir in Hamburg, consisted exclusively of male singers for over 200 years. The choir was founded by the composer and music teacher Albert Methfessel, who composed the Hamburg anthem »Hammonia«, among others. To promote the tradition, the young male choir »Bengelsstimmen« joined the Hamburger Liedertafel association. As part of the »Join Generation: Experience Tradition – Shape the Future« project, the 200th anniversary was celebrated with a concert in the Elbphilharmonie concert hall. In order to shape the future, the women's choir »Tontöchter« was founded within the Hamburger Liedertafel as part of the »Create Future« project. This unique event after 200 years is now being celebrated with a concert in the Laeiszhalle.

Der Herr der Ringe & Der Hobbit

The concert.

Der Herr der Ringe & der Hobbit – das Konzert

The fabulous world of hobbits, elves and orcs is brought to life tonight in a major concert experience with a symphony orchestra, choir and star guests. From the menacing sounds of Mordor and the shrill attack of the black riders to the marvellous lyrical meodies of the elves – the Laeiszhalle is transformed into a musical scenario of Middle Earth by nearly 100 artists.

Der Herr der Ringe & der Hobbit – The concert

Peter Jackson’s world-famous film celebrates its 20th anniversary! The music of the hobbits and orcs comes to the concert hall stage in an impressive concert experience with soloists, choir and orchestra. The menacing sounds of Mordor and the Black Riders, the beautiful lyrical melodies of the Elves – the renowned Cinema Festival Symphonics transform reality into a musical setting of Middle-earth.

His motifs are elementally touching when the ring unfolds its power and corrupts the bearer of all power: a parable with great contemporary relevance. Accompanied by violins, trumpets and timpani, the ensemble, soloists and choir whisk the audience away to the Shire, through the landscape of Rohan and up to Mount Doom. The melodic tones of flutes and violins are supported by green landscapes and gloomy scenarios on the screen in the background. Animations specially developed for the production add an extra dimension to this symphonic event. »The last Goodbye« and »Far over the Misty Mountains cold« are performed by soloists with powerful voices who add a personal touch to the well-known songs. »The Lord of the Rings & The Hobbit – The Concert« is a fantastic evening of a very special kind.
