Gürzenich-Orchester Köln: »Bock auf Klassik?!«

Bock auf Klassik?!

Wiener Klassik

Haydn's "Missa in angustiis," his only mass in a minor key, reflects the turbulent times of the Napoleonic Wars. Beethoven's Symphony No. 2, written as his deafness began, is surprisingly playful and full of contrast. Mozart's Symphony No. 1, composed at the age of eight, reveals a composer brimming with energy, imagination, and original ideas.

Concerto Köln

Soprano Jeanine De Bique from Trinidad and Concerto Köln bring heroic female figures to life in arias and orchestral works in the Great Hall. The basis is the singer's debut album 'Mirrors', which “from furor to goosebumps, from breathtaking coloraturas to sensual, beautiful, simple melodies” revels in the entire range of baroque opera emotions.

Klassik am Odeonsplatz

Attracting around 8,000 visitors on site and considerably more via TV and radio, Klassik am Odeonsplatz is one of the highlights of every BRSO season. For this year’s program, Sir Simon Rattle has chosen excerpts from Wagner’s Walküre, of which Brahms probably would have approved. In his opinion, there were “wonderful things” in it, and said about one performance: “In the Second Act, I drink a glass of beer, deliberately lie down for half an hour, and afterwards I feel refreshed again.” Brahms wrote his Second Symphony during a summer holiday on Lake Wörthersee. It’s the perfect piece for a wonderful Munich open-air concert – possibly with a glass of beer to celebrate the new BRSO chief conductor’s first season.

Meister in Köln

Alles auf los

The catchy and heartwarming melodies of Jewish Klezmer music are the perfect start to the new year. Mahler's musical language, rooted in Bohemian folk music tradition, resonates with Klezmer. Uri Caine and his band, along with the Komische Oper Berlin orchestra, will evoke both tears and foot-tapping. Embrace these emotions and step confidently into 2025. Happy New Year!
