Konzerthaus Kammerorchester

Vogler Quartett

Individuality finding harmonious expression in an ensemble – this is the quintessence of the Vogler Quartet, which has been pursuing a unique global career with an unchanged line-up since its formation in 1985. With an intelligent approach to chamber music, outstanding playing technique and interpretive sensitivity, Tim Vogler, Frank Reinecke, Stefan Fehlandt and Stephan Forck have created an unmistakable string quartet sound which consistently offers new insights into the genre. The group has had a concert series at the Konzerthaus Berlin since 1993.

Hope@9pm – Musik und Talk

The twilight hour has dissolved into a pleasant memory, the pulse of the city drops noticeably, one begins to breathe deeply: at precisely 9pm, violinist Daniel Hope opens his salon for music and conversation in the Werner Otto Hall. Hope@9pm is a contemporary descendant of Berlin’s 18th century salon culture with its cultural and political debates and discussions, its esprit and its music. Always at the side of the well-travelled host: piano accompanist Jacques Ammon.

Agata Zubel's “Mother Lode III” (Hauptader 3), which explores the effects of spatial sound, is followed by the world premiere of a concerto for two percussionists and ensemble by Latvian composer Jānis Petraškevičs. Composer Anna Korsuns compares her work “Plexus” (network mesh) to “a complex network of sounds that is constantly in motion and forms an organic structure.” The final piece is Georg Katzer's “Godot kommt doch, geht aber wieder”, a musical game with expectations and surprises.

Universum Lera Auerbach

The labyrinth of lifeComposer, pianist, conductor, visual artist, poet: Lera Auerbach, to whom we are dedicating a ‘Creative Portrait’ this season, is an extraordinarily versatile artist. Explore a section of her personal universe during this portrait evening with conversation and music. Lera Auerbach will bring along some of her works as well as a collage created for this evening, which combines photos from her earliest childhood in Russia, her own poems and film footage of selected projects: ‘Life is sometimes as confusing as a labyrinth, and we need help to find our way out. For me, my memories are an important orientation aid in the labyrinth of the present, like a red thread that guides me.’ As a pianist, she will be performing solo and with a long-time companion, violinist Philippe Quint.The event will be held mainly in English.
