Date & Time
Mon, Dec 9, 2024, 20:00
In April 1782, Vienna saw the birth of the first imperial "Harmonie" consisting entirely of wind instruments, marking the beginning of a half-century trend in European court music. These ensembles created a new genre and revitalized chamber music, which continues to delight with its wit and spirit. Since 2014, the conductorless c/o chamber orchestra has explored music-making without hierarchies, ranging from chamber music to opera.

O/Modernt Chamber Orchestra / Hugo Ticciati

Thu, Jul 4, 2024, 20:00
Elbphilharmonie, Großer Saal (Hamburg)
O/Modernt Chamber Orchestra, Bram van Saambeek (Bassoon), Sven Figee (Hammond organ), Rick Stotijn (Double bass), Marijn Korff de Gidts (Percussion), Hugo Ticciati (Violin), Hugo Ticciati (Conductor)
There was cheering, wild clapping and stamping of feet: when you read reports today about the concerts that Antonio Vivaldi gave in his home city of Venice, you feel like you’ve been transported to a rock concert. The bustling ensemble O/Modernt under the direction of Hugo Ticciati shows just how much »rock« there is in baroque by fusing Vivaldi’s works with the music of Metallica, Muse and Dream Theatre. The use of the legendary Hammond organ conjures up the 60s and 70s rock sound à la Procul Harum and The Doors, while bassoonist Bram van Saambeek not only shows off his virtuosity with Vivaldi’s bassoon concertos, but also with the famous bass guitar solo from Metallica’s »Pulling Teeth« – with a thoroughly authentic sound thanks to amplification. Look forward to a rousing, multi-faceted evening and the unique fusion of fine baroque figuration, grooving riffs, rich string sounds and tremulous bass!

Does the cello have so many fans because it is most similar to the human voice? At least that's what cellists like to say about their instrument, which became the new star in string heaven during the Romantic period. Since the Baroque era, the violin had been the undisputed queen, with the cello relegated to the continuo with the double bass. Antonín Dvořák also had to make friends with the cello, which was sometimes derided as a “sorrow box” due to its pronounced melancholic qualities. As a guest in the USA, he finally wrote a great dance-like concerto for the instrument, which became a favorite piece from his pen around the world, rich in melody and virtuoso. The family concert title “Hello Cello!” is a greeting with which we and our audience aged 8 and over welcome artist in residence Sheku Kanneh-Mason, his wonderful instrument and the Dvořák concert. And an exclamation of surprised admiration: Hello - what this cello can do!
