"The Age of Anxiety" – Bernstein's 2nd Symphony from the late 1940s could hardly be more topical. Two choral-orchestral works radiate confidence: Stravinsky's striking "Psalm Symphony" and Bernstein's "Chichester Psalms," which oscillate between rhythmic drive and cantilenas.

Stiffelio

Fri, Jun 6, 2025, 19:30
Angelo Villari (Stiffelio), Pretty Yende (Lina), Gabriele Viviani (Stankar), George Andguladze (Jorg), WDR Rundfunkchor (Einstudierung), WDR Funkhausorchester (Musical Director), Rustam Samedov (Einstudierung), Lorenzo Passerini (Director)
Love, betrayal, death, and forgiveness – Verdi's "Stiffelio" is full of drama. Too much for the censors, who banned the first version before its 1850 premiere. The original scores, believed lost, were rediscovered in Naples over 100 years later. Audiences can expect an exciting encounter with a rarely performed early work.
