Following the success of the Philharmonic Ball in 2020 and 2023, you're invited to another dazzling ball night at the Essen Philharmonic Hall. The Great Vienna Ball Orchestra and its Big Band will transform the Alfried Krupp Hall, while a club scene unfolds in the RWE Pavilion. The Allbau ballroom will celebrate the golden 1920s with swing and lindy hop, and culinary offerings range from champagne to currywurst. Daniel Hope will host and perform, and guests are invited to a quadrille.
Trauer und Trost vereint der Philharmonische Chor Köln in seinem Programm, in dem Robert Schumanns Totenmesse auf die Schmerzen Marias bei der Kreuzigung Jesu trifft. Voller Lebensfreude war dagegen Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy, als er auf seiner Hochzeitsreise den Psalm »Wie der Hirsch schreit« vertonte.Für Robert Schumann war das Werk seines Komponisten-Kollegen schlicht die »höchste Stufe, die (…) die neuere Kirchenmusik überhaupt erreicht hat«. In seinem eigenen »Requiem« verzichtet Schumann selbst auf allzu große Schrecken und stellt den tröstenden Charakter und die Aussicht auf ewigen Frieden im himmlischen Paradies ins Zentrum seiner Vertonung. Und auch Josef Gabriel Rheinberger mildert in seinem »Stabat mater« die Leiden der Gottesmutter Maria immer wieder mit einer ganz persönlichen Musiksprache, die Hoffnung spendet und Erlösung verspricht.
Schaurig-schöne Geschichten erzählen die Kartäuserkantorei Köln, der Philharmonische Chor Bonn und das Philharmonische Orchester Hagen in diesem Konzert.Von Druiden, die heidnische Bräuche praktizieren, und Hexen, die zum »Höllenlärm« des Orchesters durch die Nacht reiten, handelt Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdys »Die erste Walpurgisnacht«. Camille Saint-Saëns’ makabrer Totentanz ist die Begleitmusik zu einem geheimen Treffen eines Liebespaares, das sich nicht lieben darf – gespielt vom Tod höchstselbst um Mitternacht auf einem Friedhof. Hugo Wolf vertonte ein schauriges Gedicht von Edurard Mörike, in dem am Ende das Gerippe eines Feuerreiters gefunden wird, und bei Franz Liszt schlagen zunächst die feierlichen »Glocken des Straßburger Münsters«, bevor es zu einer dramatischen Auseinandersetzung des Teufels mit einem Engel kommt.
Contemplative music and stories belong to the Advent season like the decorated tree to Christmas. »A Winter’s Tale« combines popular German Christmas songs and texts in a varied literary-musical interplay to create a very special programme – and has become a cherished tradition at Christmas time. The fact that a top-class ensemble around star violinist Daniel Hope could be won for this speaks for itself. They are assisted by the unique Katharina Thalbach, who with her unmistakable voice and her inimitable acting skills always takes a humorous and critical look at the festival of love.
