Konzert zur Saisoneröffnung

Fri, Sep 6, 2024, 20:00
Konzerthaus Berlin, Großer Saal (Berlin)
Konzerthausorchester Berlin, Joana Mallwitz (Conductor), Sheku Kanneh-Mason (Cello)
Joana Mallwitz leads the Konzerthausorchester Berlin into her second season as Chief Conductor with a programme of dance music, which for her is ‘perfect’ for the opening of the season. What's more, our new Artist in Residence Sheku Kanneh-Mason is making his first appearance - with Antonín Dvorak's Cello Concerto, which ‘adds a particularly festive element thanks to its familiarity and elegance,’ says our chief conductor. ‘Apart from that, it goes very well with John Adams’ ‘The Chairman Dances’ and Sergei Rachmaninov's Symphonic Dances: We have three composers from three eras who went to America and dealt with issues of exile, flight and home. While abroad, they incorporated musical elements from their homeland into their works.’ We are very much looking forward to starting a 2024/25 season with you that is as full of musical energy and excitement as this opening!

Chor zur Welt

Sun, Jun 30, 2024, 19:30
Elbphilharmonie, Kleiner Saal (Hamburg)
Jörg Mall (Chorus Director), Ramadu (Vocals), Tash Manzungu (Vocals), Aly Keïta (Balafon), John Eckhardt (Double bass), Makiko Eguchi (Piano)
People from more than 15 countries sing in the Chor zur Welt. They all share a curiosity for the music of other cultures and all enjoy experimenting with their own voices. Under the direction of Jörg Mall, the choir rehearses clearly conceived concert programmes, which are then performed on stage at the Elbphilharmonie and KörberHaus. Together with the singer, songwriter and producer Ramadu from Zimbabwe, the choir is now exploring the traditional a capella music of southern Africa and familiarising itself with the Bantu languages of Ndbele and Xhosa. Choir members and the audience can expect a variety songs that are stylistically very different, all in response to the breathtaking nature and volatile history of the countries of Southern Africa. The stylistic spectrum ranges from the powerful »Mbube« (Zulu for »Lion«), which rose to international fame thanks to Walt Disney’s »The Lion King«, to the militant »Chimurenga«, where the musicians opposed the oppression of the British colonial rulers and campaigned for freedom, independence, social justice and respect for human rights, through to the soft and harmonious »Isicathamiya«. »Ubuntu« – humanity – is the title of the programme, where the desire for freedom comes together in the traditional texts with an appeal for global justice and peaceful coexistence. Ramadu is the stage name of Dumisani Moyo. Born and raised in Zimbabwe, he lived in Vienna for many years, where he founded the record label 10th District Music. With a mix of traditional folk music from southern Africa and modern pop sounds, he brought the music of his homeland to a worldwide audience. His various solo and ensemble projects like the »Insingizi« trio have garnered rapturous receptions. The studio attached to his record label has since relocated to Bulawayo, Zimbabwe, where he devotes his efforts to promoting the local art scene. With some great triumphs along the way: NOBUNTU, Zimbabwe‘s first female vocal group, is just one success story that owes its genesis to him.

Chor zur Welt

Sun, Jul 6, 2025, 20:00
Elbphilharmonie, Kleiner Saal (Hamburg)
Chor zur Welt, Jörg Mall (Director), Leandro Saint-Hill, Roland Cabezas (Guitar), Achim Rafain (Bass guitar), Mischa Schumann (Piano), Heinz Lichius (Drums), Pablo Escayola (Percussion)
Usually, the roughly 60 singers from more than 15 countries in the Chor zur Welt sing a diverse programme with music from all the home regions of its members. But this time, fittingly for the focal point of the 2024/25 season, Brazil is the focus of the Elbphilharmonie’s participatory ensemble. More specifically, »música popular brasileira« (popular Brazilian music), »MPB« for short and also affectionately referred to as »nossa música« (our music) by Brazilians. Heard and loved across all generations and communities, »MPB« combines many Brazilian traditions with pop music. Whether influences from rock, reggae, samba, bossa nova or from the music of Afro-Brazilian culture: everything from the cultural melting pot comes together here. This music is intoxicating, spreads a good mood and lets no one sit still – least of all the choir itself.
