Festkonzert zum internationalen Weltfrauentag

Sat, Mar 8, 2025, 19:30
Hansjörg Albrecht, Carl-Philipp-Emanuel-Bach-Chor Hamburg
Is it still necessary to talk about the role of women in society, work, and music? Absolutely! While gender equality is law, it's not yet reality everywhere. International Women's Day, celebrated since 1911 and officially recognized by the UN for 50 years, provides an excellent opportunity to discuss this. The Bremen Philharmonic dedicates itself to this topic in word and sound.

Dvořák 9

Thu, Jun 5, 2025, 19:00
Gautier Capuçon (Cello), Alain Altinoglu (Conductor)
One symphony isn't a symphony, while the other is among the most famous. Stravinsky's "Wind Symphony" may surprise. Dvořák's "New World" Symphony captivates with its Bohemian romanticism, influenced by New York. Its popular adagio features a catchy English horn solo. Stravinsky's work is rhythmically sharp and melodically cutting. Thierry Escaich's cello concerto is like a Bach-inspired aria. Concert duration: about 120 minutes including intermission.

Konzert zum Karfreitag

Haydn's composition is characterised by a dramatic, extremely moving emotionality that is hard to resist. It was initially conceived as a purely instrumental composition - meditation music in seven slow movements with a prelude and final movement („Il Terremoto“ - the earthquake) for a Passion service. However, when Haydn heard an arrangement of his work with a German text in Passau in 1794, he was inspired to write his own vocal version. The premiere took place in Vienna in 1796. With the flourishing of choral societies in the 19th century, this vocal version of the Seven Words became one of the most frequently performed pieces of Passion music ever.
