In this concert, the choir presents a cross-section of choral music from all eras, with works by Johann Sebastian Bach, Samuel Scheidt, Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy and contemporary motets by Ivo Antognini, Ko Matsushitas and John Rutter, among others.

Konzerthausorchester Berlin, Iván Fischer

Fri, Nov 8, 2024, 19:00
Konzerthaus Berlin, Großer Saal (Berlin)
Konzerthausorchester Berlin, Iván Fischer (Conductor), Vocalconsort Berlin, Samuel Mariño (Soprano), Deniz Uzun (Mezzo-Soprano)
Mozart's “Magic Flute” is a masterpiece of the 18th century that reflects the moral concepts of the time with regard to the roles of men and women. Iván Fischer wants to confront parts of this favorite opera with 21st century values. He concentrates on well-known arias and scenes: Reversed gender roles of central characters invite an unexpected new listening experience as well as reflection. For example, a King of the Night, interpreted by the outstanding countertenor Samuel Mariño, appears as the antagonist of the powerful Sarastra, sung by Deniz Uzun. Iván Fischer also plays with the music itself, for example when he has the famous overture performed not only by the Konzerthausorchester but also by the Vocalconsort Berlin.

Konzerthaus Berlin, Großer Saal (Berlin)
Konzerthausorchester Berlin, Iván Fischer (Conductor), Lawrence Power (Viola), Sarah Maria Sun (Soprano)
Our honorary conductor Iván Fischer is a guarantee for unusual programmes. This time, he and the Konzerthausorchester will perform works by four composers who were ostracised and persecuted by the National Socialists and whose works shaped the avant-garde of the interwar period. Paul Hindemith, Kurt Weill and Hanns Eisler found their way to the United States via detours, but Erwin Schulhoff was interned in Prague, deported and died of tuberculosis in a camp in Bavaria.

Konzerthausorchester Berlin, Joana Mallwitz

Sat, Dec 14, 2024, 20:00
Konzerthaus Berlin, Großer Saal (Berlin)
Konzerthausorchester Berlin, Joana Mallwitz (Conductor), Florian Groß (Conductor), Julia Lezhneva (Soprano)
Soprano Julia Lezhneva's career was prophesied early on: ‘I must have shouted so suddenly right after giving birth that the doctor almost dropped me and told my mother that I was a born opera singer,’ she says. The Moscow-trained artist clearly has a sense of humour - and is now one of the most sought-after soloists of her generation, from the Salzburg Festival to the Royal Opera House. This is not the first time she has performed with us either. The programme includes ouvertures as well as arias by Mozart and Rossini, and the Konzerthausorchester will continue its seasons-spanning Haydn focus with one of the composer's famous London symphonies under the baton of Joana Mallwitz.
