Andrew Manze | Daniel Müller-Schott

British-born Andrew Manze began his impressive career as a violinist and conductor of early music. Since then the vitality and spontaneity he acquired in the early music scene now covers every era of music history. With Schumann’s Cello Concerto of 1850 he ventures into the innermost precincts of romanticism. Endless dreamlike melodic lines and a fervent urge to communicate characterise the solo part, making this concerto, to Munich cellist Daniel Müller-Schott, one of the most personal of all works for cello and orchestra. Manze’s unconventional and daredevil approach is as welcome here as it is in Beethoven’s First Symphony, where the composer’s idiosyncratic and trailblazing will to expression already flares up behind a seemingly classicist façade.

Meister & Müller

»No original feeling … nothing but technical skill, calculation and inner deceit, a sickly, ill-tasting Supermusic«, an outraged critic wrote of the premiere of Mahler’s Fourth in Munich in 1901. Today we speak of a masterpiece. One can love or hate Mahler’s symphonies: some suffer vicariously with them, understanding their loneliness and loving their melancholy. Others find them outré, self-indulgent, hysterical. In the Fourth, it’s all not so bad. »We revel in heavenly pleasures«, it says at the end.

“I only program music I love, because otherwise what’s the point?” Fleur Barron recently told The Times, which praised the Singaporean-British mezzo-soprano as “a knockout performer.” The young, exciting, and passionate singer (whose mentor, incidentally, is Barbara Hannigan) will make her debut with the BRSO in Mahler’s Lied von der Erde. She will be joined by tenor Andrew Staples, who has performed many times with the BRSO, as well as guest conductor Daniel Harding. Mendelssohn’s Fifth Symphony – written in honor of Martin Luther – has not been performed by the BRSO in a long time. The composer would have actually liked to burn the work, whose first movement he described as a “fat, bristly animal.” Fortunately, his intention was never realized.
