Monteverdi: Vespro della Beata Vergine

Fri, Apr 26, 2024, 20:00
Laeiszhalle, Großer Saal (Hamburg)
Les Cornets Noirs, Ensemble Delectus Cantionum (Vocal Ensemble)
It takes some confidence to dedicate a sacred work personally to the Pope. But Claudio Monteverdi was keen to reach as large an audience as possible when he published his »Vespro della Beata Vergine« in 1610. With the work, he sought to express all the facets of his compositional prowess, and the »Vespers for the Blessed Virgin« remains one of the greatest works of sacred music to this day. In 13 movements, Monteverdi demonstrates his mastery and his ability to integrate all the contrasting stylistic influences of his time into one diverse whole. The six-strong Flemish instrumental ensemble Les Cornets Noirs specialises in the music of Monteverdi’s time. Together with the singers of the Delectus Cantionum ensemble, they present a historically informed and musically expressive performance of this legendary work.

Musikkollegium Winterthur / Sergio Azzolini / Bogdan Božović

Fri, Jan 3, 2025, 19:30
Elbphilharmonie, Kleiner Saal (Hamburg)
Musikkollegium Winterthur, Sergio Azzolini (Bassoon), Bogdan Božović (Violin), Bogdan Božović (Director)
The bassoon »paints in particular the objects of sad tenderness«. This was written in 1807. Yes, the instrument also has its lyrical side, which can bubble in the depths and nasalise in the high register; it is just as capable of frenzied fluency as it is of heartfelt singability. Hardly anyone realises these rich possibilities of the instrument more beautifully than Sergio Azzolini, who has been setting standards in the world of the (baroque) bassoon for decades, not only as an outstanding soloist but also as a professor in Basel.

»The Art of Being Human«

Wed, Mar 12, 2025, 20:00
Elbphilharmonie, Großer Saal (Hamburg)
Phantasm, Laurence Dreyfus (Viola da gamba), Laurence Dreyfus (Director), Camille Jackson (Dance), Amie-Blaire Chartier (Dance), Saeed Hani (Dance), Sami Similä (Dance), Rodolfo Piazza (Dance), Sommer Ulrickson (Choreography), Alexander Polzin (Visual concept)
Human existence is a contradictory business. »The Art of Being Human« explores the complex impacts of this trite fact. The Grammy award-winning viola da gamba ensemble Phantasm thereby ensures a musical performance at the very highest level. Its members put their instrumental mastery into operation for an evening in which old sounds and contemporary dance blend into an inseparable unit and jointly try to fathom the darkest recesses of the human condition. Choreographer Sommer Ulrickson and allround visual artist Alexander Polzin create a multidisciplinary framework in which music and movement come together, connect with each other, hook into each other, collide and cross fertilise. Under the leadership of Laurence Dreyfus, Phantasm plays music of English masters, such as John Dowland, Henry Purcell and William Byrd. At the same time, the musicians interact in the most diverse way with the dancers, who move as partners and yet adversaries around sculptures by the Berlin artist Alexander Polzin. The result is a staged concert evening, which makes full use of the potential of this currently popular format!

Vivaldi: The Four Seasons

Sun, May 11, 2025, 20:00
Laeiszhalle, Großer Saal (Hamburg)
Le Consort, Théotime Langlois de Swarte (Baroque violin), Théotime Langlois de Swarte (Director)
So much can be captured: what is known as early music (literally, »old music« in German) has long since no longer only been in the hands of the old guard, who did important pioneering work. More and more young artists, trained in specialised degree programmes, are flocking onto the stages of this world to revive the music of the past few centuries in fresh interpretations. One of the current stars on this scene is French baroque violinist Théotime Langlois de Swarte, who – following his performance in the Elbphilharmonie »Fast Lane« series – you can now experience with his own ensemble Le Consort. On the programme is one work that needs no introduction: Antonio Vivaldi’s »Four Seasons«. The collection of four violin concertos portraying the seasons is one of the earliest and most famous examples of programme music – and surely one of the most popular works of all in the history of music. De Swarte now skilfully combines it in his programme with other concertos and overtures by Vivaldi and his contemporaries – and so makes the seasons appear in a new guise.
