My Melodies

Fri, Feb 14, 2025, 20:00
hr-Sendesaal (Frankfurt am Main)
Hornisten des hr-Sinfonieorchesters, Alexander Waite (Piano), Matthias Hermann (Conductor)
Helmut Lachenmann's music for eight horns seeks new ways of listening, not new sounds. Christian Mason's composition sees the orchestra as a giant resonating instrument. In between, Lachenmann's first major piano work. Lachenmann's "My Melodies" goes beyond the classical soloist and any notion of melody. He aims to make perception tangible through unconventional use of familiar instruments and tones. The hr-Sinfonieorchester, along with two Lachenmann experts, perform this extraordinary concert.

Quintessenz

Sun, Feb 23, 2025, 18:00
hr-Sendesaal (Frankfurt am Main)
Maximilian Junghanns (Violin), Nadine Blumenstein (Violin), Steffen Weise (Viola), Stefanie Pfaffenzeller (Viola), Jan Ickert (Cello)
Beethoven's quintet originated from a late-stage trio, while Bruch's, also a late work, was long lost. Both quintets possess a unique maturity, a musical essence of many years. They captivate immediately, as does Haydn's masterful quartet. Beethoven transformed his quintet from a bold, impetuous youthful piece, while the eighty-year-old Bruch reaffirmed his traditional credo. Looking back, he quotes himself – a reminiscence and self-affirmation of his past. (Concert duration: approx. 110 minutes including intermission)

hr-Sendesaal (Frankfurt am Main)
Nicolas Cock-Vassiliou (Oboe), Su Yeon Kim (Piano), Liisa Randalu (Viola), Ulrich Horn (Cello), Nika Gorič (Soprano)
This anniversary program invites you to a Hindemith-style birthday celebration: with music, unusual and rich, playful and provocative, from mature and young wild days - in any case by Hindemith. The modernist pioneer from Hanau turned away from the cult of genius and the confessional nature of romanticism in favor of a "new objectivity," which included parodistic features, quotations, and playing with popular genres. Four sonatas for viola, oboe, and cello—with, without, or even just for piano—as well as an unconventional serenade, can be experienced from Hindemith's rich oeuvre. Music for the chamber at its best!
