Twinkle Concert XL / Somnia – What Do Dreams Sound Like?

Sat, Nov 9, 2024, 14:00
Elbphilharmonie, Kleiner Saal (Hamburg)
Ensemble Resonanz, Gregor Dierck (Violin), Gregor Dierck (Arrangement), Swantje Tessmann (Violin), Carrie Robinson (Viola), Tim-Erik Winzer (Viola), Jörn Kellermann (Cello), Daniele Contino (Circus artist), Daniel Esteban (Circus artist), Dan Tanson (Stage Director), Pietro Gaudioso (Assistant director), Anna Kurz (Stage), Anna Kurz (Costume)
Am I dreaming or is this real? In »Somnia«, the music spirits you away to an enchanted world. As in a dream, you sometimes feel threatened. But before you wake up in the middle of a nightmare, Ensemble Resonanz gently brings you back from the edge. The chamber music ensemble plays music from five centuries in this imaginative concert. It is accompanied by two circus performers with a good head for heights, who move skilfully to the music and, together with the musicians, provide a few surprises as well. »Twinkle Concerts« is the series of children’s concerts at the Elbphilharmonie that brings the most successful productions from all over Europe to Hamburg. At times funny and playful, at others thoughtful and reflective, the series introduces children to the world of music in a special and unique way.

Midsummer Night’s Dreams with Marc Minkowski and the Karajan Academy

Tue, Apr 23, 2024, 20:00
Philharmonie Berlin, Chamber Music Hall (Berlin)
Karajan-Akademie der Berliner Philharmoniker (Orchestra), and Guests (Orchestra), Karajan-Akademie der Berliner Philharmoniker (Ensemble), Marc Minkowski (Conductor), Alina Wunderlin (Soprano), Miriam Albano (Mezzo-Soprano), RIAS Kammerchor (Choir)
Almost everyone knows the festive Wedding March from Mendelssohn’s music to A Midsummer Night’s Dream and Schubert’s lilting entr’acte to Act III of Rosamunde. The complete incidental music to these plays, however, is unjustly neglected. Their sequences of instrumental pieces, dance, vocal and choral movements lead us into the magical worlds of sprites and knights. Marc Minkowski, directing the RIAS Kammerchor and the Karajan Academy, presents a selection of the most beautiful pieces from both works.
