Film screening: “Geographies of Solitude”

Date & Time
Sun, Feb 23, 2025, 20:00
For decades, ecologist Zoe Lucas has been researching the flora and fauna on Sable Island, a remote island off the east coast of Canada, and documenting an ecosystem largely unaffected by human influence. Experimental filmmaker Jacquelyn Mills accompanies her, capturing her meticulous work on 16 mm film and immersing herself in the deep structures and beauty of life by editing and distorting the material. Nature appears as an overwhelming place of stillness and perpetual growth and decay, with large quantities of plastic waste highlighting the threat to this world.

Brett Dean’s Fire Music in turn refers to a devastating bushfire in Australia in 2009. Aaron Copland’s Appalachian Spring takes us on to North America, while Heitor Villa-Lobos’ Chôros No. 10 echoes the birdsong of the Amazon. Marin Alsop makes her debut with the Berliner Philharmoniker.

Kirill Petrenko conducts the German premiere of Srnka’s “Superorganisms”

Sat, Feb 15, 2025, 19:00
Philharmonie Berlin, Main Auditorium (Berlin)
Berliner Philharmoniker (Orchestra), Kirill Petrenko (Conductor)
Under the title Paradise lost? On the Threat to Nature, the Berliner Philharmoniker and chief conductor Kirill Petrenko open their third Biennale. One work that ideally reflects the theme is Beethoven’s “Pastoral”, which exuberantly celebrates the beauty of country life. However, the idyll proves to be fragile and is swept away by an apocalyptic storm. Miroslav Srnka’s work Superorganisms, heard here in its German premiere, embodies a completely different kind of natural phenomenon. It depicts life forms that can only exist in a community in a fascinating way. The concert opens with Arcana, by Edgard Varèse; The title refers to 16th-century alchemist and astrologer Paracelsus, who sought universal knowledge, and believed that the stars could help understand human healing.
