Date & Time
Fri, Jan 19, 2024, 20:00
Ludwig van Beethoven: genius, freethinker and troubled soul – as well as a master of coping with crises through music. In 1809, he lamented: »We have experienced a rather crowded misery. The entire course of events has affected my body and soul. What a destructive, desolate life around me! Nothing but drums, cannons, all kinds of human misery!« At that time, he was greatly distressed by the current situation, as Vienna was occupied by Napoleon's troops. Food shortages, the black...

Mahler's Symphony No. 5 & Rachmaninoff's Piano Concerto No. 3

Thu, Sep 12, 2024, 20:15
Mahler Academy Orchestra, Philipp von Steinaecker (Conductor), Leif Ove Andsnes (Piano)
What did Mahler's Fifth Symphony sound like at the beginning of the last century? The Mahler Academy Orchestra, attached to the Gustav Mahler Academy in Bolzano, sheds new light on performance practice in Mahler's time with the Originalklang-Project. The orchestra consists partly of academics and partly of professional musicians, drawn from the best European orchestras. In Toblach, where Mahler composed his last symphonic works, they mastered playing on original Viennese instruments from around 1900 under the direction of Philipp von Steinaecker. The strings use gut strings; the woodwind and brass play on instruments Mahler acquired during his time as conductor of the Vienna Philharmonic.Norwegian star pianist Leif Ove Andsnes will solo in Rachmaninoff's Third Piano Concerto. Fun fact: Mahler conducted this work at the New York Philharmonic in 1910 with Rachmaninoff himself as soloist. The Mahler Academy Orchestra's concert is a prelude to the Mahler Festival in May 2025.Originalklang with original text: first performance of Mahler's Fifth Symphony in the new critical edition by Breitkopf & Härtel.

Sold out: Giuseppe Mengoli conducts Beethoven and Mozart

Konzerthalle Bamberg, Joseph-Keilberth-Saal (Bamberg)
Giuseppe Mengoli (Conductor), Francesco Piemontesi (Piano)
Unfortunately, our Honorary Conductor Herbert Blomstedt is not able to conduct this concert as planned, as well as pianist Maria João Pires cannot come to Bamberg, both due to health reasons. Gladly Giuseppe Mengoli and Francesco Piemontesi will both step in on short notice. The concert programme remains unchanged.The two pieces of this concert evening are perfectly suited as spiritual mourishment: Mozart‘s triumphant »Jupiter Symphony« from 1788 is seen as the artistic pinnacle of his creative work. As was often the case in his life, he was struggling with the hardships of everyday life at that time, and so the Andante in particular encapsulates a whole range of musical feelings – from intense inwardness to passion and aching sadness to the grandiose. Otherwise, however, the symphony is an optimistically shining piece in luminous C major – its later added title emphasising the power of the heavenly father and light-bringer Jupiter, the supreme deity in Roman mythology. Beethoven's Fourth Piano Concerto was also composed in 1806 during a worrisome time: the agonies of deafness and the loneliness associated with it increasingly troubled the composer – and he once said: »Music is the climate of my soul.« When composing this grandiose work, Beethoven is believed to have been thinking of the Greek myth of the legendary poet-musician Orpheus, who subdued the dark demons of the underworld with his beguiling sounds.
