Laeiszhalle, Kleiner Saal (Hamburg)
Die Jungs, Rolf Zuckowski (Vocals), Jens Pape (Director)
When a cool children’s and youth choir like DIE JUNGS performs on stage together with Rolf Zuckowski at the beginning of December, you can look forward to a very special way to get into the Christmas spirit. Because what more do you need than 50 boys who are really looking forward to Christmas? A mixture of traditional Christmas songs in a special JUNGS guise, with a few modern Christmas songs thrown in, and Rolf, who sings the audience into a wonderful Christmas mood with his Christmas songs anyway. This is exactly why choirmaster Jens Pape, Rolf Zuckowski and DIE JUNGS are looking forward to ringing in December with lots of fun, energy and great singing at the Laeiszhalle Rectial Hall for all those in search of Christmas.

Wed, Jun 11, 2025, 20:00
Chen Reiss (Soprano), Johannes Weisser (Bariton), Benjamin Bruns (Tenor), Thomas Faulkner (Bass), Valentina Stadler (Mezzo-Soprano), Leon Košavić (Bariton), Audi Jugendchorakademie, Le Cercle de l’Harmonie (Ensemble), Jérémie Rhorer (Conductor)
Robert Schumanns einzige Oper zählt zu den eigenwilligsten und bedeutendsten Musikdramen der Romantik. Das Originalklang-Ensemble Le Cercle de l’Harmonie und sein Gründer Jérémie Rhorer legen nun die verblüffende Modernität dieses Meisterwerks offen.Gemeinsam mit ausgewählten Solistinnen und Solisten erzählen der kundige Dirigent und sein Spezial-Ensemble die Geschichte von »Genoveva«: Die Gattin des Pfalzgrafen Siegfried wird von dessen Gefolgsmann, der sie liebt, fälschlicherweise der Untreue geziehen. Schumanns Oper, die ein glückliches Ende findet, lebt von einer unerhörten inneren Spannung. Jeder ihrer konzentrierten vier Akte ist bezwingend durchkomponiert, durchwirkt von bedeutungsvoll schillernden Leitmotiven – raffinierter mitunter als Wagner!

Gustavo Dudamel | Schumann

Fri, Oct 23, 2020, 18:00
Gustavo Dudamel (Conductor), Bavarian Radio Chorus, Andrew Lepri Meyer (Tenor), Symphonieorchester des Bayerischen Rundfunks
Once again Gustavo Dudamel will be a guest of the BRSO! Now this principal conductor of the Los Angeles Philharmonic has dreamt up something special for his five short concerts: a Schumann cycle, something never heard before in such concentration at the BRSO. It’s a musical portrait of a genius who was only inspired to write his own symphonies after stumbling upon Schubert’s Great C-major Symphony. The series features the Spring Symphony in B-flat major, the Second in C major, the Rhenish in E-flat major and the Fourth in D minor. Rounding off the Schumann feast are a cappella choral works by José Antonio Abreu, Antonio Estévez and Modesta Bor. The three poignant miniatures, including a love song after Pablo Neruda, shed revealing light on the soul of Latin America and send a musical greeting from Dudamel to his native Venezuela.
