Geburtstagskinder on stage
A look at the musical innovations of American composer Charles Ives, whose works are described as crazy, sensational, and revolutionary. The piece also mentions Béla Bartók, whose music for strings, percussion, and celesta became world-famous for its use in Stanley Kubrick's film "Shining." It further discusses Arnold Schönberg's innovative arrangement of Brahms' Piano Quintet, transforming chamber music into a symphony. Finally, the Bremer Philharmoniker celebrate Ives' and Schönberg's 150th birthdays with a special offer for those born on November 17th, 18th, or 19th.
