Von Puppen und Schelmen

Till Eulenspiegel, first mentioned in 1510, is one of the world's most famous pranksters. Strauss composed a symphonic poem capturing Eulenspiegel's mischievous nature. Stravinsky's "Petrushka" immerses us in a vibrant fairground atmosphere where the puppet, Petrushka, comes alive. Baudelaire's poetry inspired Dutilleux's cello concerto "Tout un monde lointain," a work full of color, melancholy, and sensuality, transporting us to a mysterious world.
