Konzerthaus Kammerorchester

Thu, May 15, 2025, 20:00
Konzerthaus Berlin, Kleiner Saal (Berlin)
Konzerthaus Kammerorchester, Sayako Kusaka (Conductor)
Our musicians come together several times each season not only in large symphonic formations, but also as the Konzerthaus Chamber Orchestra - this time led by our first concertmaster Sayako Kusaka, who is also the ensemble's artistic director. They choose the pieces for their concerts themselves. A string quartet with „sonata“ in its nickname? To avoid any confusion: Tolstoy's story „The Kreutzer Sonata“, which is about Beethoven's famous violin sonata, inspired Leoš Janáček to write his first string quartet in 1923. Apparently the literature had a very inspiring effect, as he completed it within an astonishing nine days. Both works, Janáček's quartet and Beethoven's sonata, can also be heard in this larger instrumentation after Dvořák's short lyrical „Nachtstück“ for string orchestra.

»Wiener Schulen« gibt es zwei. Manche begegnen der Zweiten mit Argwohn. Ganz zu Unrecht, wenn man bedenkt, welch vielfältige Musik in ihrem Umkreis entstand. Mahler, Zemlinsky und Webern stehen für würdige wie anregende Geburtstagsgrüße an deren berühmten Begründer. Mahlers romantisch-früher Klavierquartett-Satz ist zugleich die einzige Kammermusik, die der bedeutende Sinfoniker und letztliche Wegbereiter der »Zweiten Wiener Schule« der Nachwelt hinterlassen hat. Zemlinsky, Schönbergs früher Förderer und Lehrer, steuert ein Brahms-beseeltes Klarinettentrio bei und von Webern, dem treuesten Schüler Schönbergs, sind feingearbeitete Miniaturen zu erleben, bevor der Jubilar selbst das Wort ergreift mit seinem frühen Meisterwerk »Verklärte Nacht«. Konzertdauer: ca. 105 Minuten – inklusive Pause
