Following the death of her husband and Kremlin critic Alexei Navalny, she wants to continue his work: From exile, Yulia Navalny continues to fight tirelessly for democracy and the rule of law in her native Russia. This year, she is the patron of the Days of Exile in Hamburg and will give a speech on exile to mark the occasion. The evening will be rounded off with music by violinist Gidon Kremer and the chamber orchestra Kremerata Lettonica. Muschda Sherzada (NDR Kultur) will moderate. The Days of Exile are an audience-oriented programme of events and encounters in Hamburg and other German cities, initiated by the Körber Foundation. From 5 February to 7 March 2025, they will take place in Hamburg for the sixth time with a total of 50 events at 42 locations. Exhibitions, concerts, readings and other formats will be dedicated to the topics of flight and exile in the past and present. The programme gives people in exile a platform and encourages dialogue and understanding between old and new citizens in order to contribute to better cohesion in the city.

Start your New Year's Eve fireworks in a musical way with us in the Great Hall - with the Konzerthausorchester, our chief conductor Joana Mallwitz, cello soloist Nicolas Altstaedt and festive and cheerful orchestral pieces from Johann Strauss' rousing Fledermaus Overture to Antonín Dvořák's turbulent “Carnival” and Ottorino Respighi's tone poem “Roman Festivals”.
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.
Ludvig Norman was one of the great musical personalities of his time. With his three symphonies and an equal number of overtures, he is the greatest Swedish symphonist of the 19th century after Franz Berwald. He also wrote excellent chamber music, including a series of string quartets, such as this vital and expressive A minor quartet.Fauré's music ranges from light salon music to a musical romanticism that points forward to the music of the 20th century. He is best known for his meditative Requiem, but he also composed a wealth of chamber music: solo sonatas, songs, and a series of brilliant piano works. The first piano quintet encompasses both romantic melody and sparkling French sounds.Louise Héritte-Viardot (1841–1918) was, like Fauré, a Parisian. She was a singer, pianist, and composer who wrote both orchestral works and chamber music. This lively piano quartet was a great success and is often called "the Spanish" because of the Spanish titles of the movements – such as the first movement's Paseo, a Spanish dance.
Conductor Bas Wiegers and the Munich Chamber Orchestra share a mutual appreciation for curiosity and versatility. Wiegers, appointed "Associated Conductor," embodies these qualities, much like Joseph Haydn. This concert features Haydn's festive Symphony in C major ("Alleluja") and the lively Cello Concerto in C major, performed by Nicolas Altstaedt. Altstaedt will also premiere a new cello piece by Márton Illés, whose expressive style reflects the same curiosity and versatility.
