Aus meinem Leben

Sun, Mar 3, 2024, 18:00
Hába Quartett: Sha Katsouris (Violine Artur Podlesniy), Sha Katsouris (Violin), Artur Podlesniy (Violin), Peter Zelienka (Viola), Arnold Ilg (Cello), Jan Polívka (Piano)
Der Tscheche Bedřich Smetana hat der Musikwelt viele große Werke geschenkt – auch in der Kammermusik. Zu seinem 200. Geburtstag breitet das Hába Quartett ein Füllhorn seiner wundervollen Kompositionen aus. Von böhmischer Melodiefreude sind sie erfüllt wie von heimischen Tänzen und Romantik. Von zwei von der Schönheit der heimischen Landschaft und der unverfälschten Musikalität ihrer Bewohner kündenden Violin-Duos führt der Bogen dabei über die mitreißenden beiden Streichquartette Smetanas bis hin zu einer Klavierquintett-Adaption seiner wohl berühmtesten Komposition: »Die Moldau«.Konzertdauer: ca. 110 Minuten – inklusive Pause

Der Nino aus Wien

Thu, Nov 21, 2024, 19:30
Elbphilharmonie, Kleiner Saal (Hamburg)
Der Nino aus Wien (Guitar), Der Nino aus Wien (Vocals), Raphael Sas (Guitar), pauT (Bass guitar), David Wukitsevits (Drums)
His songs reflect what the Viennese feel: in nonchalant style, Nino from Vienna has made dialect singing socially acceptable again, and has transported the Viennese song from traditional taverns to the trendy club scene. Not only has he accumulated a large fan base, he has also become a role model for many successful Austrian musicians who are now breathing new life into the genre. He just proved this in spring 2024 as part of »Die Besten aus Wien«, when André Heller brought together the who’s who of this lively scene on the Elbphilharmonie stage. Now Nino from Vienna is back in Hamburg with his new album »endlich Wienerlieder«. The album is dedicated to his grandfather, a Wienerlied singer, and pays homage to great traditions. As charming as ever, he sings about »the entire universe of human existence. As different as these songs are, they all show a lot of feeling: Nino, it seems, doesn’t give a shit. He just does it. And the result is usually good« (Die ZEIT). He never pretends to be something he isn’t. His stage name is the best example: Nino Mandl, who grew up on the outskirts of the Austrian capital, is Der Nino aus Wien: Nino from Vienna. Someone who sings about the banalities of everyday life and turns them into great music – simply and authentically, without ever exaggerating.
