Man with a Movie Camera

Date & Time

Venue

Dsiga Wertows »Man with a Movie Camera« hat in den 95 Jahren seit seiner Veröffentlichung nicht an Aussagekraft verloren: Als Experiment einer universellen Kinosprache erhielt der Stummfilm, der ganz ohne Zwischentitel auskommt, bereits diverse musikalische Interpretationen. Der Film, dessen Struktur – wie nach musikalischen Parametern – ihren Rhyth mus findet, saugt Zuschauende förmlich in das Leben in Kiew, Charkiw und Odessa im Jahr 1929. Diesen Sog verstärkt die Komposition Thomas Sauerborns, inspiriert von der Symbiose aus Film- und Kameratechniken auf... Read full text

A Ravel evening with Seong-Jin Cho

Tue, Apr 29, 2025, 19:00

Philharmonie Berlin, Chamber Music Hall (Berlin)

Seong-Jin Cho (Piano)

Seong-Jin Cho loves the “incredible wealth of colours” and “often orchestral sound” of Maurice Ravel's piano music, where he finds a special form of sensitivity. He sees in Ravel “a person who smiles gently, but with tears in his eyes”. To mark the 150th anniversary of the French composer's birth, our Artist in Residence will perform Ravel's complete works for solo piano, including the gravitational Pavane pour une infante défunte, the mysterious Gaspard de la nuit and the sometimes lively, sometimes dreamy Valses nobles et sentimentales.

Eliot Quartet / Music with a sense of humor

Thu, Jun 12, 2025, 19:30

Narodowej Orkiestry Symfonicznej Polskiego Radia, Chamber Hall (Katowice)

Eliot Quartett, Maryana Osipova (Violin), Alexander Sachs (Violin), Dmitry Hahalin (Viola), Michael Preuß (Cello)

Haydn wrote the Quartet in C major op. 54 No. 2, both virtuosic and exceptionally deep in its artistry, with Johann Tost, a violinist of the Esterhazy orchestra he was leading, in mind. Much to his surprise, he later learnt that the musician had sold the work to the publisher Seiber, keeping all money for himself. What was more, the quartet was published with changes unauthorised by Haydn. In his Quartet No. 3, Brahms obviously references the Viennese classic, creating a work of classical subjectivity, with all-encompassing sense of humour, and a tiny bit of the romantic emotionality in the slow movement, reminding us clearly of that being a completely different era already. Krzysztof Meyer, in turn, freely admits that the composition Au-delà d’une absence is a quartet in the style of his teacher, Dmitri Shostakovich. It is an attempt at continuing the Russian composer’s unfinished plan of writing 24 string quartets in all keys. An interesting and successful attempt, let us add.

Concertgebouw Orchestra: A Prokofiev feast with Iván Fischer

Wed, Feb 12, 2025, 20:15

Het Concertgebouw, Main Hall (Amsterdam)

Concertgebouw Orchestra, Iván Fischer (Conductor), Nelson Goerner (Piano)

Sergey Prokofiev’s tremendous versatility can be appreciated only when multiple works of his are heard side by side. This concert by the Concertgebouw Orchestra under the direction of honorary guest conductor Iván Fischer is the perfect opportunity.The Overture on Hebrew Themes is friendly, playful and folkloric. By contrast, the Second Piano Concerto features all the shock effects that made Prokofiev famous. The music is like that of a wicked fairy tale, but can also be heard as the missing link between Rachmaninoff and the brutal ‘machine music’ of the 1920s. The work is rarely performed live owing to the extremely difficult piano part. Nelson Goerner is one of few to venture such a performance. Hearing the Argentine pianist in concert is invariably an unforgettable experience.With the ballet Cinderella (based on Perrault’s ‘Cendrillon’), Prokofiev proved himself a worthy successor to Tchaikovsky – and was even heralded as ‘the new waltz king’ by a Russian critic at the time. Performed less frequently than Prokofiev’s earlier ballet Romeo and Juliet, it nevertheless features the same compelling blend of elegance, whimsy and magical orchestral colour. Prokofiev himself claimed it contains some of the best passages he ever composed.

François-Xavier Roth with Bruckner’s Third and a world premiere

Sun, May 19, 2024, 20:00

Philharmonie Berlin, Main Auditorium (Berlin)

Berliner Philharmoniker (Orchestra), François-Xavier Roth (Conductor)

The Third Symphony is considered Anton Bruckner’s problem child. The three versions of this hymn-like and at the same time mysterious work show how much the composer struggled with it. François-Xavier Roth, conductor of this performance, considers the first version from 1873 to be the most successful – because it shows the original Bruckner. Roth has made a name for himself as a Bruckner interpreter who brings not only the sonic power of this music to life, but also its nuances. The programme also includes the world premiere of a work by the Slovenian Vito Žuraj.

Het Concertgebouw, Main Hall (Amsterdam)

Harlem Gospel Choir

It goes without saying that The Concertgebouw and jazz & pop music make a perfect combination. The stages of both the Main Hall and the Recital Hall have borne witness to nearly the whole of jazz history. Sarah Vaughan and Ella Fitzgerald have both performed here, as have Miles Davis and Louis Armstrong. Famous pop stars and bands that have graced the stage of the Main Hall include Frank Zappa, the Doors and the Eagles, to name but a few. Legendary concerts, in the present as well as the past.
