Philharmonic chamber music: the fascination of the clarinet

Sun, Sep 15, 2024, 17:00
Philharmonie Berlin, Chamber Music Hall (Berlin)
Harry Ward (Violin), Angelo de Leo (Violin), Tobias Reifland (Viola), Solène Kermarrec (Cello), Andraž Golob (Clarinet)
The music world owes a great debt of gratitude to clarinettist Anton Stadler. After all, he inspired Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart to write a clarinet quintet which, with its yearning melodies, is one of the most beautiful works of chamber music. In turn, our Composer in Residence Wolfgang Rihm, who died in July , wrote his Four Studies for a clarinet quintet for the clarinettist and composer Jörg Widmann. According to Widmann, Rihm “understood and sensed the essence of our marvellous instrument like very few others”. Andraž Golob, bass clarinettist with the Berliner Philharmoniker since 2021, will present the two works together with colleagues.

Philharmonic Day – Peter and the Wolf

Sat, Jan 11, 2025, 11:00
Royal Stockholm Philharmonic Orchestra, Andreas van Tol (Conductor), Ayla Kabaca (Narrator)
The humorous and captivating story of Peter and the Wolf is undoubtedly the most beloved musical tale ever created. Based on a Russian folktale, Sergei Prokofiev's remarkable music has entertained generations of children and adults since its premiere in 1936.Peter lives a simple life on a farm with his grandfather. He is an outcast among the local children, and his best friends are a bird, a cat, and a slightly scatterbrained duck. Despite his grandfather’s warnings, Peter takes his friends into the alluring but dangerous forest, where the wolf is lurking.Each character is musically portrayed by a different instrument. The cat is a softly prowling clarinet, the duck a quacking oboe, the grandfather is heard through the bassoon, and the wolf is brought to life by three menacing French horns. To help children learn what the different instruments look and sound like, the performance begins with an introduction by each instrument.The performance also features illustrations by the legendary artist Ilon Wikland, renowned for her long collaboration with Astrid Lindgren.Strollers and prams cannot be brought into Konserthuset Stockholm and are best left at home. A designated stroller tent is set up outside the entrance, where prams can be left, subject to space availability.

Philharmonic Academy

Sat, Sep 7, 2024, 19:30
Elbphilharmonie, Kleiner Saal (Hamburg)
Moses Mendelssohn Kammerorchester, Joanna Kamenarska (Violin), Clemens Malich (Conductor), Landesjugendorchester Hamburg, Naomi Seiler (Viola), Bar Avni (Conductor)
Old meets new and the familiar meets the strange and fairytale-like in the Hamburg Philharmonic State Orchestra’s 2nd Academy Concert, when the propulsive, youthful freshness of the just-turned-seventeen Mozart meets the relatively unknown Romantic sound of Hamburg-born Ferdinand David. Things take an atmospheric turn with Ralph Vaughan Williams, whose music is a resounding reflection of his origins and homeland in England. Just like Edvard Grieg’s »Peer Gynt« from Norway.
