Born in the right place by chance? By chance, lucky enough to be able to devote yourself to your love of music undisturbed from an early age? How free are art and music? When am I free, when are we free? What may, what should, what will freedom cost – me, you, us?Our so beloved freedom? Just an accidental gift of history? – Conceived, written and directed by tauchgold, Mensch, Musik #8 “Zufällig FREI” takes up this question from a different direction: How can music and art still reverse the downward trajectory of the will to freedom even in the face of direct threat? How can creative Eros put a stop to the destructive instinct? And what happens when I replace guilt and repentance before God with love and responsibility before others?Under the direction of Dutch conductor Bas Wiegers, the Rundfunk-Sinfonieorchester Berlin is once again transcending the boundaries of symphonic music by inviting artists to push the boundaries of classical performance practice – this time with works by composers who were given or denied freedom for random reasons. All of them – composers and their works – are linked by the question: When am I free and what does freedom mean to me?
Behind the partially reconstructed façade of the Berlin Palace, the Humboldt Forum opens up with collections from many cultures around the world. The musicians return to the historic location where the RSB has performed several times in the Palace of the Republic in the past. Inspired by the collections and exhibitions, they will play micro-concerts on the six museum Sundays from November 2024 to April 2025, each at 14:00. Entry is free. The programmes of the concerts will be announced on the websites of the RSB and the Humboldt Forum before the respective dates.
Scheherazade captivated Sultan Schahriar with wondrous tales and songs for 1001 nights, escaping death. Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov's "Scheherazade" suite, based on "One Thousand and One Nights", is a colorful composition. The solo violin and harp weave enchanting melodies as Scheherazade narrates, escaping death. Conducted by Andrea Sanguineti, the Essen Philharmonic Orchestra transports listeners to a mystical world.
