Quatuor Diotima

Wed, Mar 13, 2024, 19:30
Elbphilharmonie, Kleiner Saal (Hamburg)
Yun-Peng Zhao (Violin), Léo Marillier (Violin), Franck Chevalier (Viola), Alexis Descharmes (Cello)
Formed in 1996, Quatuor Diotima from France is a familiar name in the field of New Music. Because with »Fragmente – Stille, An Diotima« of 1980, Luigi Nono composed one of the epochal works of contemporary music. And because Nono also refers to Beethoven’s equally innovative, late String Quartet Op. 132 in his work, Quatuor Diotima now combines these two compositions for an evening of great string quartet music. Luigi Nono described his string quartet, which was premiered at the Bonn Beethovenfest in 1980, as »transcendental music«. Nono wove a number of quotations into the fine soundscape that oscillates between silence and non-silence, including from Verdi’s »Ave Maria«. Reference is also made to the slow, transcendentally beautiful movement »Heilige Dankgesang eines Genesenen an die Gottheit« from Beethoven’s final official String Quartet Op. 132.

Sat, Mar 16, 2024, 16:00
Laeiszhalle, Kleiner Saal (Hamburg)
Amarins Wierdsma (Violin), Kate Maloney (Violin), Christoph Slenczka (Viola), Yoanna Prodanova (Cello)
The Barbican Quartet was founded in 2015, and is taught and supported by string quartet stars like Günter Picheler and the Quatuor Ébène. The four musicians present works by Alban Berg and Beethoven as part of the »Teatime Classics« series. 2022 was a memorable year for the Barbican Quartet: they won first prize and other special prizes at the ARD Music Competition, as well as a third prize at the Bordeaux International String Quartet Competition. The ensemble had only just found a new second violinist, and thus a new sound and style of ensemble playing, in February 2022. The Barbican Quartet has appeared at many international festivals, and has been broadcast on the radio several times. In the 2022/23 season, they produced and released their first CD. An extensive tour will take them to different parts of Europe, to Canada and the USA.

Piano//Duo EnsariSchuch

Sun, Mar 3, 2024, 19:30
Elbphilharmonie, Kleiner Saal (Hamburg)
Gülru Ensari (Piano), Herbert Schuch (Piano)
He loves her musical spontaneity and she appreciates his flair for special programmes: The Piano//Duo EnsariSchuch! Making music together as a piano duo requires not only musical skills, but also almost »blind« trust in each other. Therefore, it is hardly surprising that Gülru Ensari and Herbert Schuch also have a private connection: Both have been a married couple for nine years and have a daughter together. The two are an ideal constellation because they combine the advantages of different worlds: Herbert’s childhood in Romania, as well as Gülru’s Turkish roots – and can therefore come up with a wide range of musical colours. In their programme »Eternity«, the two shed light on the theme of eternity in music and seek answers to many questions: How does infinity explain itself? Which pieces make you forget space and time? Is redemption or nothingness waiting behind death? They approach these essential questions through the works of Brahms, Schubert, Ravel and Beethoven.
