Mahler Festival: Fabio Luisi and NHK Symphony Orchestra - Mahler's Symphony No. 4

Mon, May 12, 2025, 20:15
Het Concertgebouw, Main Hall (Amsterdam)
NHK Symphony Orchestra, Tokyo, Fabio Luisi (Conductor), Ying Fang (Soprano), Matthias Goerne (Bariton)
Born in Italy, Fabio Luisi is currently chief conductor on two continents. In Texas, he succeeded Jaap van Zweden at the Dallas Symphony Orchestra. And in Tokyo, he leads the NHK Symphony Orchestra, with which he will give two concerts during the Mahler Festival. Yesterday the Third Symphony was performed, today it is the Fourth Symphony's turn. Luisi's interpretation was called 'enchanting' by Dallas Morning News. In the fourth movement, soprano Ying Fang sings of the idyll of the afterlife.While walking through Austria, writing book in hand, Mahler got his Fourth Symphony in his mind. Consequently, it sounds remarkably scenic, light and lyrical. The Fourth Symphony initially met with resistance and incomprehension, and was slammed by the press. Later, however, the work grew to become perhaps Mahler's best-loved symphony. In this respect, Bruno Walter, Mahler's colleague and friend, was proved right when, after the first performance in Vienna, he lashed out at the boomer press that 'Mahler and his immortal work will be alive long after you are dead and buried'.

Alban Berg: Wozzeck

Fri, May 23, 2025, 20:00
Elbphilharmonie, Großer Saal (Hamburg)
NDR Elbphilharmonie Orchester, NDR Vokalensemble, Hamburger Alsterspatzen, Matthias Goerne (Wozzeck), Michael Weinius (Dram Major), Martin Mitterrutzner (Tenor), Peter Hoare (Captain), Falk Struckmann (Doctor), Christine Goerke (Marie), Stefanie Irányi (Mezzo-Soprano), Isaak Lee (Tenor), Fabian Kuhnen (Bass), Andreas Heinemeyer (Bariton), Dávid Csizmár (Bariton), Alan Gilbert (Conductor), Romain Gilbert (Scenic installation)
As part of the Hamburg International Music Festival, the NDR Elbphilharmonie Orchestra devotes itself to an epoch-making opera under the direction of its principal conductor Alan Gilbert: Alban Berg’s »Wozzeck«. With its sensitive and completely honest portrait of a society undermined by militarism and the abysses into which it thrusts people, the opera became one of the greatest achievements of the Weimar Republic – an achievement which continues unabated to this day. In the band of opera stars, who embody the characters in this harrowing drama, one stands out in particular: Matthias Goerne in the title role of a young soldier on the verge of insanity. Started immediately before the outbreak of the First World War, Alban Berg only found the necessary peace to complete his first opera after his military service in the Austrian army. Against the backdrop of the war years, Berg felt all the closer to his protagonist and the opera ultimately became a sounding memorial against militarism and its social impacts. A whole series of productions in opera houses in the German-speaking region soon followed the potentially scandalous Berlin premiere in 1925 – until the piece was banned by the Nazi regime as »degenerate art«. However, this could not stop the global success of this opera.
