Ariadne auf Naxos

Sun, Jan 26, 2025, 18:00
Hamburgische Staatsoper, Großes Haus (Hamburg)
Dmitri Tcherniakov (Inszenierung), Dmitri Tcherniakov (Bühne), Kent Nagano (Musical Director), Elena Zaytseva (Costume), Gleb Filshtinsky (Licht), Tatiana Werestchagina (Dramaturgie), Michael Sangkuhl (Dramaturgie), Dr. Angela Beuerle (Dramaturgie), Thorsten Cölle (Regieassistenz), Danila Travin (Assistenz Bühnenbild), Wolfram Koch (Haushofmeister), Martin Gantner (Musiklehrer), Ella Taylor (Komponist), Jamez McCorkle (Tenor), Jamez McCorkle (Bacchus), Peter Tantsits (Tanzmeister), Grzegorz Pelutis (Perückenmacher), Hubert Kowalczyk (Ein Lakai), Nadezhda Pavlova (Zerbinetta), Anja Kampe (Primadonna), Anja Kampe (Ariadne), Björn Bürger (Harlekin), Florian Panzieri (Scaramuccio), Stephan Bootz (Truffaldin), Daniel Kluge (Brighella), Olivia Warburton (Najade), Aebh Kelly (Dryade), Marie Maidowski (Echo), Philharmonisches Staatsorchester Hamburg (Orchestra)
"It is a simple and tremendous problem of life: that of fidelity", is how Hugo von Hofmannsthal described the core of their third opera together, Ariadne auf Naxos, in a letter to Richard Strauss. To live does not mean to persevere and hold on to what has been lost. If you want to live, you have to let go, forget, get over yourself - constantly transform yourself. This is what a young opera composer experiences in this work when he is confronted with the stubborn wishes of his patron; just like the protagonist of his opera, Ariadne, who, abandoned by her lover, Theseus, expects only death. But things turn out differently... Strauss and Hofmannsthal let the opposites collide: Tragedy and comedy, light music and grand opera, playfulness and seriousness. Thus, in the mirroring of art and life, between gaze and gaze, the unfathomable mystery of transformation takes place. Musical Direction: Kent Nagano Production and stage: Dmitri Tcherniakov Dramaturgy: Angela Beuerle, Michael Sangkuhl

The programme for the 6th Philharmonic Concert includes a world premiere that reflects our times. Jörg Widmann, who has been in close artistic contact with Kent Nagano, particularly since the great success of his ARCHE for the opening of the Elbphilharmonie, has recently written a decidedly peaceful work in view of the global wars: »Cantata in tempore belli«. Jens Harzer takes on the role of narrator. Ida Aldrian sings the alto part.

Opéra Fantastique in five acts Libretto by Jules Barbier Based on the play by Jules Barbier and Michel Carré Edited by Michael Kaye and Jean-Christophe Keck The poet E. T. A. Hoffmann as the protagonist of his own fantastic tales: In his encounter with three women - Olympia, Antonia, and Giulietta - he searches in vain for love for love and for himself. Will he draw the strength for art from his failure in life? art from his failures in life? Or will he fail in himself, even in alcohol?

Jetzt zieht er in die Welt: Der freie Held Siegfried soll wieder richten, was Wotan, der Göttervater, zu Beginn der Geschichte vermasselt hat. Endlich ist Teil drei von Wagners »Ring des Nibelungen« im Originalklang-Projekt von Kent Nagano zu erleben.Im Rahmen dieses Projekts (das ursprünglich unter der Überschrift »Wagner-Lesarten« bekannt wurde und in dem überhaupt die Idee zu einem Originalklang-Ring entstand und realisiert werden konnte und zwar mit großzügiger Unterstützung des Landes NRW und der Kunststiftung nrw) erkundet der entdeckungsfreudige Maestro gemeinsam mit Concerto Köln, dem Dresdner Festspielorchester und einer exquisiten Sängerschar fortgesetzt die historisch informierten Dimensionen der Tetralogie. Musikalisch beredt erzählen sie nun davon, wie Siegfried im Wald aufwächst, das Schwert Nothung neu schmiedet, den Drachen Fafner tötet, von diesem arglos den »Ring des Nibelungen« gewinnt, Wotans Speer zerschlägt und liebend die Walküre Brünnhilde erweckt.The Wagner CyclesEin Projekt der Dresdner Musikfestspiele Gefördert vom Kuratorium KölnMusik e.V.

Elbphilharmonie, Großer Saal (Hamburg)
Philharmonisches Staatsorchester Hamburg, Kent Nagano (Conductor), IRCAM (Live electronics)
Pierre Boulez’s »Répons« was one of the remarkable highlights of Kent Nagano’s »Philharmonische Akademie« at St. Michaelis at the beginning of his tenure as General Music Director in Hamburg. He staged the »interchange« between chamber ensemble and soloists to great effect, as well as between electronically altered and unaltered sounds, within the sacred walls of Hamburg’s »Michel« church. The major construction project for the »Elbphilharmonie« was still underway at the time. Ten years later, Nagano revisits this exceptional work by the composer, conductor and founder of the IRCAM Institute in Paris, bringing it to the new and yet already firmly established concert hall on Hamburg’s River Elbe.

Die dunkle Seite des Mondes

Sun, May 18, 2025, 18:00
Hamburgische Staatsoper, Großes Haus (Hamburg)
Unsuk Chin (Komposition), Kerstin Schüssler-Bach (Mitarbeit Libretto), Dead Centre (Inszenierung), Kent Nagano (Musical Director), Jeremy Herbert (Bühne), Janina Brinkmann (Costume), James Farncombe (Licht), Sophie Lux (Video), Dr. Angela Beuerle (Dramaturgie), Michael Sangkuhl (Dramaturgie), Christian Günther (Chorleitung), Thomas Lehman (Dr. Kieron), Bo Skovhus (Meister Astaroth), Siobhan Stagg (Miriel), Chor der Hamburgischen Staatsoper (Chorus), Philharmonisches Staatsorchester Hamburg (Orchestra)
Dr. Kieron is a brilliant scientist, respected and feared by his colleagues. But what nobody suspects is that every night he is haunted in his dreams by three recurring beings, enigmatic numbers and mysterious symbols, which he experiences with unbearably intense feelings. It is from these apparitions that he receives his scientific visions - the fundamental basis of his success. He also leads a double life. A highly respected scientist by day, he dives into the shady underworld at night in a restless search for human happiness. But his control over himself is slipping away. In order to satisfy his irrepressible urge for scientific knowledge and an emotionally fulfilling life, Kieron wants to have his dreams analyzed and enters into an alliance with the diabolical master Astaroth, with fatal consequences.

Hamburgische Staatsoper, Großes Haus (Hamburg)
Unsuk Chin (Komposition), Kerstin Schüssler-Bach (Mitarbeit Libretto), Dead Centre (Inszenierung), Kent Nagano (Musical Director), Jeremy Herbert (Bühne), Janina Brinkmann (Costume), James Farncombe (Licht), Sophie Lux (Video), Dr. Angela Beuerle (Dramaturgie), Michael Sangkuhl (Dramaturgie), Christian Günther (Chorleitung), Thomas Lehman (Dr. Kieron), Bo Skovhus (Meister Astaroth), Siobhan Stagg (Miriel), Chor der Hamburgischen Staatsoper (Chorus), Philharmonisches Staatsorchester Hamburg (Orchestra)
Dr. Kieron is a brilliant scientist, respected and feared by his colleagues. But what nobody suspects is that every night he is haunted in his dreams by three recurring beings, enigmatic numbers and mysterious symbols, which he experiences with unbearably intense feelings. It is from these apparitions that he receives his scientific visions - the fundamental basis of his success. He also leads a double life. A highly respected scientist by day, he dives into the shady underworld at night in a restless search for human happiness. But his control over himself is slipping away. In order to satisfy his irrepressible urge for scientific knowledge and an emotionally fulfilling life, Kieron wants to have his dreams analyzed and enters into an alliance with the diabolical master Astaroth, with fatal consequences.

Die Illusionen des William Mallory

Rodolphe Bruneau-Boulmier (Komposition), Kent Nagano (Musical Director), Inge Kloepfer (Text), Georges Delnon (Inszenierung), Marie-Thérèse Jossen (Costume), Ralf Waldschmidt (Dramaturgie), Mitglieder des Philharmonischen Staatsorchesters Hamburg (Orchestra)
At the zenith of his career as a board member of a major corporation, disaster suddenly befalls the former working-class son William Mallory. He crashes over a scandal and no longer understands the world. With suicidal thoughts, he fables on the couch with his psychiatrist about the stages of his rise. An opera as a chamber play that begins quietly, only to soon unroll the great themes of life - a parable about rise and fall, identity and betrayal, appearance and fate. In the end, Mallory realizes that his own illusions have brought him down. In the end, he no longer even knows whether it was an illusion that he once began his rise as a good man. Musical Direction: Kent Nagano Staging: Georges Delnon Costumes: Marie-Thérèse Jossen Dramaturgy: Ralf Waldschmidt The rise and fall of an underdog based on a true story An opera in three pictures Libretto by Inge Kloepfer

Sun, Jun 29, 2025, 11:00
Elbphilharmonie, Großer Saal (Hamburg)
Philharmonisches Staatsorchester Hamburg, Audi Jugendchorakademie, Mojca Erdmann (Soprano), Evan Hughes (Bariton), Kent Nagano (Conductor)
In this concert, which concludes Kent Nagano’s ten-year tenure as General Music Director, two essential strands of his concert dramaturgy for Hamburg come together. On the one hand the reference back to tradition, and the Hamburg-based composer Johannes Brahms to be precise, whose four symphonies have been performed by the Hamburg Philharmonic State Orchestra both in its Hamburg concerts and on tour in recent years. And then sounds of the present day, in the form of pioneering world premieres. A brief review conjures up performances of Widmann’s ARCHE, Dusapin’s »Waves«, and Shepherd’s »On a Clear Day«, to name just a few outstanding new works. This concert – a crowning finale and farewell at the same time – sees the premiere of a new symphony by the young Argentinian composer Alex Nante, in his inimitably dreamlike, spiritual sound language.
