George Gershwin: Rhapsody in Blue for Piano and Orchestra
Leonard Bernstein: Candide Overture
Bamberger Symphoniker Note:
This concert will light a musical firework display to mark the end of the year. According to Gershwin, his »Cuban Overture« of 1932 was the fruit of »two hysterical weeks in Cuba«. This spirited work combines dances such as the rumba, new percussion instruments and folk songs such as the famous »Échale Salsita«. In his »Rhapsody in Blue«, first performed in 1924, Gershwin wanted to depict the »musical kaleidoscope of America, of our vast melting pot«. This masterpiece features a loose arrangement of swing themes, sparkling rhythms and blues elements. Kirill Gerstein will be our soloist. Music composed by Ferde Grofé in 1926 will take us on a journey to the »father of waters«: We will conjure up the adventures of Mark Twain’s Huckleberry Finn as he travels down the Mississippi River in search of a better life. Bernstein created a smash hit with his »West Side Story«, a modern version of Shakespeare’s »Romeo and Juliet« that tells the story of the struggle between two street gangs and a love affair across the divide between them. His »Symphonic Dances« contain famous melodies such as the hopeful song »Somewhere« as well as lush sound effects with numerous Latin rhythms. Bernstein’s comic operetta »Candide«, based on Voltaire’s social satire, was written in 1956 and is a fast-paced musical journey through various European countries and South America. Loriot described the work humorously: »Candide loves Cunigunde, and we accompany the couple – usually separately – on a kind of adventure holiday. On this trip, the likeable lovers take in everything that makes contemporary tourism so entertaining.«
Zum beschwingten Jahresausklang zünden wir ein rhythmisches Feuerwerk. Laut Gershwins Aussage ist seine »Cuban Overture« von 1932 die Frucht »zweier wahnsinniger Wochen in Kuba«. Tänze wie Rumba, neuartige Schlaginstrumente und Volkslieder wie das damals berühmte »Échale Salsita« hat er in dem temperamentvollen Werk vereint. Mit seiner 1924 uraufgeführten »Rhapsody in Blue« wollte er ein »musikalisches Kaleidoskop Amerikas – unseres ungeheuren Schmelztiegels« zeichnen. Swingthemen, zündende Rhythmen und Blueselemente erscheinen in dem Meisterwerk in einer lockeren Fügung. Prominenter Solist dafür ist Kirill Gerstein. Mit der 1926 komponierten Musik von Ferde Grofé gibt es einen Ausflug zum »Vater der Gewässer«: Wir beschwören die Abenteuer von Huckleberry Finn herauf, der auf der Suche nach einem besseren Leben in Mark Twains Geschichte den Mississippi hinabzieht. Bernstein schuf einen Gassenhauer mit seiner »West Side Story«, der modernen Version von Shakespeares »Romeo und Julia«: ein Kampf zweier Straßenbanden und die Geschichte einer Liebesbeziehung, die über die Fronten hinweg existiert. Die »Symphonischen Tänze« enthalten berühmte Melodien wie die des hoffnungsvollen Liedes »Somewhere«, außerdem üppige Klangwirkungen mit zahlreichen Latin-Rhythmen. Bernsteins komische Operette »Candide« nach Voltaires Gesellschaftssatire entstand 1956 und ist ein rasanter musikalischer Streifzug durch verschiedene europäische Länder bis nach Südamerika. Loriot umschrieb das Werk mit den humorvollen Worten: »Candide liebt Cunigunde, und wir begleiten das Paar – meist getrennt – auf einer Art Abenteuerurlaub, wobei die sympathischen Liebesleute sich nichts entgehen lassen, was den zeitgemäßen Tourismus so kurzweilig gestaltet.«

Ludwig van Beethoven: Symphony No. 6 in F major, Op. 68, also known as the Pastoral
Bamberger Symphoniker Note:
Wagner wrote »Die Feen« (»The Fairies«) in 1833 at the age of twenty. It was his first opera to be completely set to music and is based on the fairy-tale play »La donna serpent« (»The Snake Woman«). Wagner later gifted it to King Ludwig of Bavaria. The plot revolves around a king’s love for a fairy. He is not permitted to search for her name or origins – but his curiosity is too great and the fairy is turned into stone. In the end, however, a magician helps to break the spell. The overture is a kaleidoscope of the opera’s most important motifs. This will be followed by a fascinating work by Ernest Bloch, who wanted to create a national Jewish music without quoting directly from folk music: »I obeyed an inner voice that emerged when I read certain biblical passages and came to resound as an ancient heritage in my music.« He wrote the colourful rhapsody »Schelomo« in 1916, when he was becoming increasingly depressed by the experiences of the First World War. »Schelomo« is based on the Book of Ecclesiastes. While the orchestra represents the surrounding world, the cello speaks with Solomon’s voice, creating a vision of the splendour at his court – and at the same time expressing the wisdom: »And behold, all is vanity!« In this piece, our solo cellist Ulrich Witteler will speak for Solomon.
To conclude our concerts, which fall a few days after the anniversary of Beethoven’s baptism, we will once again focus on the great jubilarian. In his »Pastoral Symphony«, he atmospherically explores the ways of representing the feelings experienced in nature and the events of country life – including folkloristic melodies and a boisterous, »strikingly comical« dance, in which Beethoven pokes fun at the somewhat clumsy playing of a village band.
Sie ist das Werk eines Zwanzigjährigen und seine erste vollständig vertonte Oper: »Die Feen« komponierte Wagner 1833 nach dem Märchenspiel »La donna serpente« (»Die Frau als Schlange«) und schenkte sie später König Ludwig von Bayern. Die Handlung dreht sich um die Liebe eines Königs zu einer Fee. Er darf nur niemals nach ihrem Namen und ihrer Herkunft forschen – doch seine Neugier ist zu groß, die Fee wird in Stein verwandelt, aber mithilfe eines Zauberers wieder erlöst. Die Ouvertüre ist ein Kaleidoskop der wichtigsten Motive. Danach erklingt ein faszinierendes Werk von Ernest Bloch, der stets eine national-jüdische Musik verwirklichen wollte, aber ohne direkte Folklore-Zitate: »Ich habe auf eine innere Stimme gehorcht, die sich bei der Lektüre bestimmter Bibelstellen erhob und als uraltes Erbe in meiner Musik zum Klingen kam.« Die farbenreiche Rhapsodie »Schelomo« schrieb er 1916, als ihn die Erfahrungen des Ersten Weltkrieges zunehmend bedrückten. Sie gründet sich auf Salomons Buch der Predigten. Während das Orchester die umgebende Welt darstellt, spricht das Cello anstelle des Königs und bringt eine Vision des Glanzes an seinem Hof – und zugleich die Weisheit: »Und siehe, alles ist eitel!« Unser Solo-Cellist Ulrich Witteler erhebt in diesem Stück seine musikalische Stimme.
Zum Abschluss rücken wir ein paar Tage nach Beethovens Tauftag noch einmal sein großes Jubiläum in den Fokus. In der »Pastoral-Symphonie« hat er auf atmosphärische Weise die Möglichkeiten ausgelotet, Empfindungen beim Erleben der Natur und Situationen des Landlebens darzustellen – mitsamt folkloristischen Melodien und einem ausgelassenen Tanzfest »von schlagender Komik«: Hier wird augenzwinkernd das etwas täppische Musizieren einer Dorfkapelle aufs Korn genommen.

Ludwig van Beethoven: Symphony No. 6 in F major, Op. 68, “Pastoral”
Richard Strauss: Eine Alpensymphonie op. 64
Bamberger Symphoniker Note:
This concert will be our fourth guest performance in the Elbphilharmonie. We have been there every season since its opening, playing Mozart’s »Don Giovanni«, Smetana’s »Má vlast«, and most recently works by Wagner, Bruch and Brahms. This time, »cinema for the concert stage« will be our motto. The depiction of natural phenomena in music has held special significance for many centuries. We will present two magnificent examples of such pictures in music. As Beethoven once wrote in a letter to his friend Therese Malfatti: »No one can love the countryside as I do. After all, woods, trees, and rocks provide the echo that human beings long for!« When his Sixth Symphony was to be printed in 1809, Beethoven decided on the title »Pastoral Symphony or Memory of Country Life.« Allegedly »nightingales and cuckoos composed along« with Beethoven. It is easy to believe this story when listening to the work, which contains bursts of sunlight, a down-to-earth dance, and a veritable thunderstorm. Richard Strauss also loved nature, particularly the mountains. Thus his »Alpine Symphony« describes the stations of an all-day mountain hike and the situations encountered – from the ascent at sunrise, along a stream and a waterfall, across flowery meadows up to the alpine pasture, through thickets and undergrowth to a glacier, and then up to the summit. But before everything comes to a happy conclusion, a heavy storm of rain, thunder and lightning breaks out. According to an anecdote, Strauss was rehearsing the work with the Berlin Philharmonic when the orchestra leader suddenly dropped his bow. The composer smiled and said to the players: »Let’s wait a moment, the concertmaster has lost his umbrella.«
Es ist unser viertes Gastspiel in der Elbphilharmonie. Seit ihrer Eröffnung waren wir jede Saison dort – mit Mozarts »Don Giovanni«, Smetanas »Mein Vaterland« und zuletzt mit Werken von Wagner, Bruch und Brahms. Nun lautet das Motto: Kino für die Konzertbühne. Die Darstellung von Naturereignissen hat seit vielen Jahrhunderten einen besonderen Stellenwert in der Musik. Wir präsentieren zwei grandiose Beispiele solcher tönender Bilder. Wie schrieb Beethoven doch einmal in einem Brief an die Freundin Therese Malfatti: »Kein Mensch kann das Land so lieben wie ich. Geben doch Wälder, Bäume, Felsen den Widerhall, den der Mensch wünscht!« Anlässlich der Drucklegung seiner sechsten Symphonie im Jahr 1809 entschied er sich für die Titelformulierung »Pastoral-Symphonie oder Erinnerung an das Landleben«. Angeblich sollen hier sogar »Nachtigallen und Kuckucke mitkomponiert« haben. Beim Hören dieses sonnendurchfluteten Werkes, in dem es auch ein bodenständiges Tanzfest und einen veritablen Gewittersturm gibt, glaubt man dieser Geschichte aufs Wort. Richard Strauss liebte die Natur ebenfalls, besonders die Berge. Und so schildert seine »Alpensymphonie« Stationen und Situationen einer ganztägigen Bergwanderung – vom Aufstieg bei Sonnenaufgang, am Bach und einem Wasserfall entlang, auf blumigen Wiesen hoch zur Alm, durch Dickicht und Gestrüpp zum Gletscher und dann zum Gipfel. Bevor am Ende alles wieder gut wird, bricht ein starkes Unwetter mit Regen, Blitz und Donner aus. Laut einer Anekdote probte Strauss das Werk einmal mit den Berliner Philharmonikern, als dem Konzertmeister plötzlich der Bogen aus der Hand fiel. Der Komponist schmunzelte und meinte zu den Orchestermitgliedern: »Warten wir einen Augenblick, der Konzertmeister hat seinen Regenschirm verloren.«

Bamberger Symphoniker Note:
»True art remains everlasting, and the true artist takes heartfelt pleasure in great works of the mind.« (Ludwig van Beethoven) 2020 marks this composer’s 250th birthday, and thus this concert will once again pay tribute to Beethoven’s »true art«. Our first offering is a work heard less frequently than his other solo concertos, because it requires not one, but three instrumental soloists! Beethoven presented the Triple Concerto, first performed in 1808, to his publisher with the remark that »a concertante with three concertante voices is something new, after all«. But it is precisely this extraordinary »ménage-à-trois« that creates the charm of this playful work with its »lavishly indulgent imagination« and majestic finale in a dance-like polonaise rhythm. We are delighted to present this important composition together with the internationally renowned soloists Lars Vogt, Karen Gomyo and Julian Steckel. After this, we will dive into the yearningly imagined natural world of Beethoven’s »Pastoral Symphony«. This atmospheric work describes life in the country, including bird calls, hunting and a thunderstorm – and its third movement also depicts a cheerful dance scene, although Beethoven parodies the playing of the village band, with a few instruments always lagging a little behind. A contemporary critic described this »Merry gathering of country folk«: »We see the poet rise from his lyrical tranquillity beside the brook to be merry with the merry. The shepherds cheerfully go on ahead, making music. The lads spin their pretty lasses around in a sprightly dance. We can hear them cheering and believe that we ourselves are witnessing their lively capers.«
»Wahre Kunst bleibt unvergänglich und der wahre Künstler hat inniges Vergnügen an großen Geistes-Produkten.« (Ludwig van Beethoven) Im Jubiläumsjahr 2020 anlässlich seines 250. Geburtstages würdigen wir in diesem Konzert noch einmal Beethovens »wahre Kunst«, zunächst mit einem Werk, welches im Vergleich zu anderen Solokonzerten eher selten zu hören ist. Der Grund: Es erfordert gleich drei Instrumentalsolisten – Beethoven bot das 1808 uraufgeführte Tripelkonzert seinem Verlag mit dem Hinweis an, dass »ein Konzertant mit solchen drei konzertierenden Stimmen doch auch etwas Neues« sei. Aber gerade diese außergewöhnliche »Ménage-à-trois« macht den Reiz des spielfreudigen Werkes mit seiner »üppig schwelgenden Phantasie« und dem majestätischen Finale im tänzerischen Polonaisen-Rhythmus aus. Wir freuen uns, diese bedeutende Komposition zusammen mit den international renommierten Solisten Lars Vogt, Karen Gomyo und Julian Steckel zu präsentieren. Danach tauchen wir in die sehnsuchtsvoll imaginierte Naturwelt von Beethovens »Pastoral-Symphonie« ein. Das atmosphärische Werk beschreibt das Leben auf dem Land, mitsamt Vogelrufen, Jagdgeschehen und einem Gewitter – und stellt im dritten Satz auch eine fröhliche Tanzszene dar, wobei Beethoven allerdings die aufspielende Dorfkapelle parodiert, indem ein paar Instrumente mit ihren Tönen immer etwas hinterherhinken. Ein zeitgenössischer Kritiker beschrieb dieses »lustige Zusammensein der Landleute« mit den Worten: »Wir sehen den Dichter sich erheben aus seiner lyrischen Ruhe am Bach, um nun fröhlich zu sein mit den Fröhlichen. Die Hirten ziehen munter und musizierend voraus. Die Burschen drehen ihre Schönen im flinken Tanze. Man hört sie jauchzen und glaubt selbst Zeuge des munteren Tanzes zu sein.«

Bamberger Symphoniker Note:
»She revels in poetry and elegy, as if Edward Elgar had written his Cello Concerto just for her. When this artist lets her cello sing, her mastery making virtuoso passages seem like nothing at all, then optimism and zest in life flare up again and again amid the piece’s gentle melancholy,« a critic enthused about Sol Gabetta, who was our last season’s featured artist. We are delighted to now be going on tour with her, performing Elgar’s famous Cello Concerto. This work is pervaded by a well-nigh overwhelming nostalgia. When he wrote it in 1917, Elgar was horrified by the events of the First World War and trying to deal with the loss of people close to him. The result is a highly emotional work, charged with a sense of farewell – but before the melancholy cello is swept away by its cantilenas, a dancing rondo provides a brief ray of hope. We will complement this masterpiece with Bruckner’s »Romantic Symphony« in the revised version of 1878 to 1880 – a symphony of vast dimensions depicting extra-musical matter, although the composer once said: »I can’t remember myself what I was thinking of when I wrote it!« However, the horn call that sets the work’s tone evokes associations with the great outdoors and country life, and thus was once called the »Symphony of the Forest«. According to Bruckner, it features a »love-struck boy off to climb up to his lover’s window«, birds chirping, and a moving funeral march. In the famous Scherzo we hear a jaunty hunt and the melody of a Ländler, a country dance – here, Bruckner noted in the score: »Dance tune played during the meal while out hunting«.
»Sie schwelgt in Poesie und Elegie. Es ist, als hätte Edward Elgar ihr sein Cello-Konzert auf den Leib geschrieben. Wenn die Künstlerin das Cello singen lässt und virtuose Passagen meistert, als sei das gar nichts, dann blitzen hinter linder Trauer immer wieder Lebensmut und Daseinsfreude auf.« So schwärmte ein Kritiker über Sol Gabetta, die in der vergangenen Saison unsere Porträtkünstlerin war. Wir freuen uns, dass wir nun mit ihr auf Tournee das berühmte Cellokonzert von Elgar spielen können. Es ist durchzogen von einer schier übermächtigen Nostalgie: Der Komponist war 1917 schockiert von den Ereignissen des Ersten Weltkrieges und musste den Verlust nahestehender Menschen verarbeiten. Entstanden ist ein höchst emotionales Werk voller Abschiedsstimmung –doch bevor das schwermütige Violoncello am Ende weiter auf seinen Kantilenen davonschwimmen kann, sorgt ein tänzerisches Rondo kurzzeitig für einen Lichtblick. Außerdem spielen wir unter Leitung unseres Chefdirigenten Bruckners »Romantische« in der überarbeiteten Fassung der Jahre 1878 bis 1880 –eine Symphonie von gewaltigen Dimensionen und außermusikalischen Darstellungen, obwohl der Komponist einmal äußerte: »Ja, da woaß i’ selber nimmer, was i’ mir dabei denkt hab!« Aber allein der das Werk bestimmende Hornruf weckt Assoziationen an die freie Natur und das Landleben. Daher wurde sie auch einmal »Symphonie des Waldes« genannt. Es gibt laut Bruckner einen »verliebten Bub, der Fensterln geht«, außerdem Vogelgezwitscher, einen ergreifenden Trauermarsch und im berühmten Scherzo-Satz launiges Jagdgeschehen sowie eine Ländlermelodie – hier vermerkte Bruckner in der Partitur: »Tanzweise während der Mahlzeit auf der Jagd«.

Bamberger Symphoniker Note:
»She revels in poetry and elegy, as if Edward Elgar had written his Cello Concerto just for her. When this artist lets her cello sing, her mastery making virtuoso passages seem like nothing at all, then optimism and zest in life flare up again and again amid the piece’s gentle melancholy,« a critic enthused about Sol Gabetta, who was our last season’s featured artist. We are delighted to now be going on tour with her, performing Elgar’s famous Cello Concerto. This work is pervaded by a well-nigh overwhelming nostalgia. When he wrote it in 1917, Elgar was horrified by the events of the First World War and trying to deal with the loss of people close to him. The result is a highly emotional work, charged with a sense of farewell – but before the melancholy cello is swept away by its cantilenas, a dancing rondo provides a brief ray of hope. We will complement this masterpiece with Bruckner’s »Romantic Symphony« in the revised version of 1878 to 1880 – a symphony of vast dimensions depicting extra-musical matter, although the composer once said: »I can’t remember myself what I was thinking of when I wrote it!« However, the horn call that sets the work’s tone evokes associations with the great outdoors and country life, and thus was once called the »Symphony of the Forest«. According to Bruckner, it features a »love-struck boy off to climb up to his lover’s window«, birds chirping, and a moving funeral march. In the famous Scherzo we hear a jaunty hunt and the melody of a Ländler, a country dance – here, Bruckner noted in the score: »Dance tune played during the meal while out hunting«.
»Sie schwelgt in Poesie und Elegie. Es ist, als hätte Edward Elgar ihr sein Cello-Konzert auf den Leib geschrieben. Wenn die Künstlerin das Cello singen lässt und virtuose Passagen meistert, als sei das gar nichts, dann blitzen hinter linder Trauer immer wieder Lebensmut und Daseinsfreude auf.« So schwärmte ein Kritiker über Sol Gabetta, die in der vergangenen Saison unsere Porträtkünstlerin war. Wir freuen uns, dass wir nun mit ihr auf Tournee das berühmte Cellokonzert von Elgar spielen können. Es ist durchzogen von einer schier übermächtigen Nostalgie: Der Komponist war 1917 schockiert von den Ereignissen des Ersten Weltkrieges und musste den Verlust nahestehender Menschen verarbeiten. Entstanden ist ein höchst emotionales Werk voller Abschiedsstimmung –doch bevor das schwermütige Violoncello am Ende weiter auf seinen Kantilenen davonschwimmen kann, sorgt ein tänzerisches Rondo kurzzeitig für einen Lichtblick. Außerdem spielen wir unter Leitung unseres Chefdirigenten Bruckners »Romantische« in der überarbeiteten Fassung der Jahre 1878 bis 1880 –eine Symphonie von gewaltigen Dimensionen und außermusikalischen Darstellungen, obwohl der Komponist einmal äußerte: »Ja, da woaß i’ selber nimmer, was i’ mir dabei denkt hab!« Aber allein der das Werk bestimmende Hornruf weckt Assoziationen an die freie Natur und das Landleben. Daher wurde sie auch einmal »Symphonie des Waldes« genannt. Es gibt laut Bruckner einen »verliebten Bub, der Fensterln geht«, außerdem Vogelgezwitscher, einen ergreifenden Trauermarsch und im berühmten Scherzo-Satz launiges Jagdgeschehen sowie eine Ländlermelodie – hier vermerkte Bruckner in der Partitur: »Tanzweise während der Mahlzeit auf der Jagd«.

Leoš Janáček Grand Suite from The Cunning Little Vixen, arranged by Jakub Hrůša
Richard Strauss: Eine Alpensymphonie op. 64
Bamberger Symphoniker Note:
Janáček’s late romantic opera »The Cunning Little Vixen« is a wonderful tale about life’s secret yearnings. It is based upon a picture story published in the Brno daily newspaper, in which a forester catches the fox cub Sharp-Ears in the woods and takes her back to his home. However, the fox, the farm dachshund and the forester’s children end up in constant conflict. The vixen manages to escape back to the forest, where she falls in love with a dog fox, marries him and has lots of cubs herself – and all the while, the forester misses her terribly. Janáček used folk songs, animal calls and the melody of human language to develop the musical matter of this »Moravian midsummer night’s dream«, from which Jakub Hrůša has compiled a brand-new suite. The suite’s intoxicating musical colours will also feature on the programme of our trip to the Janáček festival in Brno, where our principal conductor was born. There too, as in Bamberg, the suite will be followed by Richard Strauss’s »Alpine Symphony« – another great description of nature. Strauss chose the beloved mountains of his Bavarian homeland as his subject, creating an alpine »Tour d’orchestre« for an enormous orchestral apparatus including an organ, thunder and wind machine, and even cow bells! He said nonchalantly: »I wanted to compose a cow giving milk.« More than sixty motifs describe a nature experience that is easy to follow step by step when listening, thanks to the headings the composer noted meticulously in the score – an adventurous mountain hike starting at dawn and ending with an evening thunderstorm and the setting of the sun.
Konzerteinführung um 19.00 Uhr
Leoš Janáčeks spätromantische Oper »Das schlaue Füchslein« ist eine wunderbare Erzählung über die Geheimnisse und Sehnsüchte des Lebens. Sie basiert auf einer Bildergeschichte aus der Brünner Tageszeitung: Der Förster fängt im Wald eine junge Füchsin namens Schlaukopf und nimmt sie mit nach Hause. Doch mit seinem Hofdackel und den Kindern gibt es ständig Streit. Der Füchsin gelingt die Flucht zurück in den Wald, wo sie sich in einen Fuchs verliebt, ihn heiratet und viele Kinder bekommt – während der Förster sie schmerzlich vermisst. Aus Volksliedern, den Naturlauten der Tiere und der Melodik der menschlichen Sprache gewann Janáček die musikalische Substanz dieses »mährischen Sommernachtstraums« – aus dem Jakub Hrůša eine faszinierende Suite zusammengestellt hat. Mit dieser berauschenden Klangfarbenmusik fahren wir auch zwei Tage später zum Janáček-Festival in Brno, dem Geburtsort unseres Chefdirigenten. Auch dort, wie zuvor in Bamberg, folgt mit der »Alpensymphonie« von Richard Strauss eine weitere großartige Naturschilderung. Er wählte dafür die geliebten Berge seiner bayerischen Heimat als Sujet und schuf eine Komposition für einen enormen Orchesterapparat mitsamt Orgel, Donner- und Windmaschine – und auch Kuhglocken, schließlich sagte er nonchalant: »Ich hab’ einmal komponieren wollen, wie die Kuh die Milch gibt.« Mit mehr als sechzig Motiven wird das Naturerlebnis geschildert, das sich dank der vom Komponisten minutiös in die Partitur eingetragenen Überschriften beim Hören dieser alpinen »Tour d’orchestre« Schritt für Schritt unschwer verfolgen lässt – eine abenteuerliche Bergwanderung von der Morgendämmerung bis zum Abendgewitter und dem Untergang der Sonne.

Programme:
Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy: Overture The Hebrides op. 26
Robert Schumann: Piano Concerto in A minor, Op. 54
Johannes Brahms: Symphony No. 4 in E minor, Op. 98
Bamberger Symphoniker Note:
Mendelssohn Bartholdy was inspired by a wide variety of ideas and experiences. During his 1829 trip to Scotland, the 20-year-old Mendelssohn embarked upon an adventurous steamboat trip, reporting: »The ladies keeled over like flies, as did one or two gentlemen.« He was particularly impressed by the Hebridean island of Staffa, with its famous cave of the mythic Gaelic king Fingal. Fingal’s Cave inspired Mendelssohn’s ingenious concert overture op. 26, which he said he wanted to »taste of salt air, cod-liver oil and gulls.« Besides naturalistic sound painting, including elements of Scottish folk music, the overture’s more profound concern is the loneliness experienced on this »legendary archipelago«.
Next, our former featured artist Piotr Anderszewski will dive into the pianistic wonder world of Schumann’s romantic A minor Concerto of 1845. Schumann immortalized his beloved wife in its music – in an anagram representing the letters of the name »Chiara«, Clara’s name in the popular »Davidsbündlertänze«, in musical notes. Clara raved about the concerto: »How richly inventive it is, how interesting from beginning to end, how fresh, and what a beautiful coherent whole!«
Brahms’ Fourth Symphony is equally exciting. Clara described it as a »servant of beauty and nobility«. Brahms wrote this symphony during the summer months of 1884 and 1885 while on holiday in Styria, but wondered whether it would »gain an audience«, commenting ironically: »I fear it tastes like the local climate – the cherries here don’t get sweet!« But this splendid symphony is certainly no bitter cherry: its use of motifs and themes is nothing short of remarkable, its movements interlock subtly, taking us on a wonderfully twisting voyage of discovery!
Konzerteinführung um 19.00 Uhr
Vielfältig waren die Anregungen, von denen sich Mendelssohn Bartholdy inspirieren ließ. 1829 unternahm der damals 20-Jährige in Schottland eine abenteuerliche Dampfschifffahrt und berichtete: »Die Ladies fielen um wie die Fliegen, und der ein oder andere Gentleman tat es ihnen gleich.« Besonders beeindruckte ihn die Hebriden-Insel Staffa mit der berühmten Höhle des mythischen Königs Fingal – und ließ ihn seine raffinierte Konzertouvertüre op. 26 schreiben, über die er sagte, sie solle »nach Salzluft, Lebertran und Möwen schmecken«. Doch neben naturalistischer Klangmalerei mitsamt schottischer Folklore ist das tiefgründigere Thema die Einsamkeit, die ein Mensch auf dieser »sagenumwobenen Inselgruppe« erlebt. Danach taucht unser ehemaliger Porträtkünstler Piotr Anderszewski in die pianistische Wunderwelt von Schumanns romantischem a-Moll-Konzert ein. In der Musik hat er 1845 seine geliebte Frau verewigt: in einem Anagramm, das die Tonbuchstaben des Namens Chiara darstellt – Claras Name in den beliebten »Davidsbündlertänzen«. Sie schwärmte über das Konzert: »Wie reich an Erfindung, wie interessant vom Anfang bis zum Ende ist es, wie frisch und welch ein schönes zusammenhängendes Ganzes!«
Ebenso spannend ist die vierte Symphonie von Brahms – die Clara als »Dienerin von Schönem und Noblem« charakterisierte. Brahms schrieb sie 1884 und 1885 in den Sommermonaten im Urlaub in der Steiermark – fragte sich aber ironisch, ob sie wohl »Publikum kriegen wird«: »Ich fürchte nämlich, sie schmeckt nach dem hiesigen Klima – die Kirschen hier werden nicht süß!« Doch um bittere Kirschen handelt es sich bei der grandiosen Symphonie keineswegs: Sie lebt von bemerkenswerter motivisch-thematischer Arbeit und subtiler Verklammerung der Sätze – eine wunderbar verschlungene Entdeckungsreise!

Anton Bruckner: Symphony No. 4 in E-flat Major
Bamberger Symphoniker Note:
We are launching our anniversary season by dancing – for, as Plato already said, »Dance is the art that moves the human soul the most.« Carl Maria von Weber created a truly rapturous waltz in his popular 1819 composition »Invitation to the Dance«. The work presents a humorous episode: a gentleman asks a lady to dance, but she refuses him. He keeps on trying persistently, and finally she gives in. The couple whirl across the dance floor, sometimes swaying gently, sometimes stomping wildly – and when the dance is over, the gentleman courteously takes his lady back to her seat. We are delighted that Piotr Anderszewski, our featured artist of 2014 / 15, will return as our guest and interpret a work by this year’s jubilarian: Beethoven’s Piano Concerto No. 1 of 1795 / 96 is actually his second, but was published first. A rhythmic main motif, festive virtuosity and brilliance, rapturous lyricism and the high-spirited dance-like finale characterise this fresh and youthful music.
This season’s opening concert with our principal conductor will conclude with a »river of sensations« – the Fourth Symphony by Bruckner, whose oeuvre was described as »actively agile, an ever-shifting spiritual radiance. What we love about Bruckner is his joy in being a traveller, a joy that had become lost.« In this concert, we will perform the symphony in the revised version of 1878 to 1880. Bruckner inscribed the name day of St. Cecilia, patron saint of music, at the end of the score. The final result is a romantic masterpiece with horn calls, birdsong, a funeral march, the sounds of country dances and a hunting scene. Bruckner said while composing the symphony: »Because the world in its present state is spiritually weak, I take flight to that which is strong, writing powerful music.«
Konzerteinführung um 19.00 Uhr
Tanzend starten wir in die Jubiläums-Saison – denn wie meinte doch bereits Platon: »Tanz ist die Kunst, die die Seele des Menschen am meisten bewegt.« Carl Maria von Weber schuf 1819 mit seiner populären Komposition »Aufforderung zum Tanz« einen wahren Walzerrausch. Dargestellt wird eine witzige Episode: Ein Herr fordert eine Dame zum Tanz auf, doch sie weist ihn zurück. Hartnäckig versucht er es weiter und endlich gibt sie nach. Auf der Tanzfläche dreht sich das Paar teils sanft wiegend, teils wild stampfend – und am Schluss bringt der Tänzer die Dame brav zu ihrem Platz zurück. Wir freuen uns, dass mit Piotr Anderszewski unser Porträtkünstler der Saison 2014 / 15 wieder zu Gast ist und ein Werk des diesjährigen Jubilars interpretiert: Beethovens erstes Klavierkonzert von 1795 / 96 ist eigentlich sein zweites, wurde aber als erstes veröffentlicht. Ein rhythmischer Grundgedanke, festlich-virtuoser Glanz, schwärmerische Lyrik und der übermütige Tanzgestus im Finale geben der jugendlich-frischen Musik das Gepräge.
Ein »Strom von Empfindungen« beendet den Saisonauftakt mit unserem Chefdirigenten – die vierte Symphonie von Bruckner, über dessen Œuvre es hieß: »Es erscheint tätige Beweglichkeit und sich wandelnde Ausstrahlung geistiger Art. Was wir an ihm lieben, das ist die ganz verloren gewesene Freude am Unterwegs.« Dieses Mal spielen wir die Symphonie in der revidierten Fassung der Jahre 1878 bis 1880. Unter die Partitur setzte Bruckner den Namenstag der heiligen Cäcilie, Schutzpatronin der Musik. Entstanden ist ein romantisches Meisterwerk mit Hornrufen, Vogelgezwitscher, Trauermarsch, Ländlerklängen und Jagdgeschehen – Bruckner sagte während der Komposition: »Weil die gegenwärtige Weltlage geistig gesehen Schwäche ist, flüchte ich zu Stärke und schreibe kraftvolle Musik.«

Programme:
Ludwig van Beethoven: Violin Concerto in D major, Op. 61
Josef Suk: Asrael, Symphony in C minor, Op. 27
Czech Philharmonic Note:
Josef Suk began composing his funeral symphony Asrael while grieving over the death of his father-in-law Antonín Dvořák, then as he was working on the piece, Suk’s wife, Dvořák’s daughter Otilka, died as well. To this great work full of immense human suffering he gave the name of the Islamic and Hebrew angel of death. Gustav Mahler is, as it were, the unspoken godfather of Asrael. Suk’s symphonic masterpiece is both intoxicating and philosophical; it does not drive listeners to despair, but instead exhorts them to contemplate the inexorable nature of fate and to meditate on the eternal. Asrael is a symphony in which Suk recasts great personal sorrow into a masterpiece, a true milestone of Czech symphonic music, and a work worthy of standing alongside the world’s greatest compositions of the early twentieth century. The conductor Jakub Hrůša and the Czech Philharmonic will perform Asrael using the critical edition published in 2018 by Bärenreiter, which is based on not only Suk’s manuscript, but also corrections made later at the initiative of Václav Talich. On the first part of the programme will be the Violin Concerto in D Major by Ludwig van Beethoven with the outstanding violinist Jan Mráček playing the solo part.
Smuteční symfonii Asrael začal Josef Suk tvořit pod dojmem úmrtí svého tchána Antonína Dvořáka, v průběhu práce však zemřela i Sukova manželka a Dvořákova dcera Otilka. Velkému dílu plnému mužného a rozlehlého smutku dal jméno islámský či hebrejský anděl smrti, nevysloveným kmotrem Asraela jako by byl Gustav Mahler. Sukovo vrcholné symfonické dílo je stejně omamné a filozofující, nevnucuje posluchačům zoufalství, ale pobízí je k přemýšlení o nezvratnosti osudu a také o věčnosti. Asrael je symfonie, ve které se obrovský osobní smutek přetavil do mistrovského díla, opravdového milníku v české symfonické tvorbě a rovnocenné součásti špičkové světové tvorby začátku dvacátého století. Dirigent Jakub Hrůša a Česká filharmonie provedou Asraela z kritické edice, kterou v roce 2018 vydalo nakladatelství Bärenreiter. Ta vychází nejen ze Sukova rukopisu, ale také z jeho korektur, které později inicioval Václav Talich. V první části programu zazní Houslový koncert D dur Ludwiga van Beethovena, jehož sólový part provede vynikající houslista Jan Mráček.

Bamberger Symphoniker Note:
This concert will light a musical firework display to mark the end of the year. According to Gershwin, his »Cuban Overture« of 1932 was the fruit of »two hysterical weeks in Cuba«. This spirited work combines dances such as the rumba, new percussion instruments and folk songs such as the famous »Échale Salsita«. In his »Rhapsody in Blue«, first performed in 1924, Gershwin wanted to depict the »musical kaleidoscope of America, of our vast melting pot«. This masterpiece features a loose arrangement of swing themes, sparkling rhythms and blues elements. Kirill Gerstein will be our soloist. Music composed by Ferde Grofé in 1926 will take us on a journey to the »father of waters«: We will conjure up the adventures of Mark Twain’s Huckleberry Finn as he travels down the Mississippi River in search of a better life. Bernstein created a smash hit with his »West Side Story«, a modern version of Shakespeare’s »Romeo and Juliet« that tells the story of the struggle between two street gangs and a love affair across the divide between them. His »Symphonic Dances« contain famous melodies such as the hopeful song »Somewhere« as well as lush sound effects with numerous Latin rhythms. Bernstein’s comic operetta »Candide«, based on Voltaire’s social satire, was written in 1956 and is a fast-paced musical journey through various European countries and South America. Loriot described the work humorously: »Candide loves Cunigunde, and we accompany the couple – usually separately – on a kind of adventure holiday. On this trip, the likeable lovers take in everything that makes contemporary tourism so entertaining.«
Zum beschwingten Jahresausklang zünden wir ein rhythmisches Feuerwerk. Laut Gershwins Aussage ist seine »Cuban Overture« von 1932 die Frucht »zweier wahnsinniger Wochen in Kuba«. Tänze wie Rumba, neuartige Schlaginstrumente und Volkslieder wie das damals berühmte »Échale Salsita« hat er in dem temperamentvollen Werk vereint. Mit seiner 1924 uraufgeführten »Rhapsody in Blue« wollte er ein »musikalisches Kaleidoskop Amerikas – unseres ungeheuren Schmelztiegels« zeichnen. Swingthemen, zündende Rhythmen und Blueselemente erscheinen in dem Meisterwerk in einer lockeren Fügung. Prominenter Solist dafür ist Kirill Gerstein. Mit der 1926 komponierten Musik von Ferde Grofé gibt es einen Ausflug zum »Vater der Gewässer«: Wir beschwören die Abenteuer von Huckleberry Finn herauf, der auf der Suche nach einem besseren Leben in Mark Twains Geschichte den Mississippi hinabzieht. Bernstein schuf einen Gassenhauer mit seiner »West Side Story«, der modernen Version von Shakespeares »Romeo und Julia«: ein Kampf zweier Straßenbanden und die Geschichte einer Liebesbeziehung, die über die Fronten hinweg existiert. Die »Symphonischen Tänze« enthalten berühmte Melodien wie die des hoffnungsvollen Liedes »Somewhere«, außerdem üppige Klangwirkungen mit zahlreichen Latin-Rhythmen. Bernsteins komische Operette »Candide« nach Voltaires Gesellschaftssatire entstand 1956 und ist ein rasanter musikalischer Streifzug durch verschiedene europäische Länder bis nach Südamerika. Loriot umschrieb das Werk mit den humorvollen Worten: »Candide liebt Cunigunde, und wir begleiten das Paar – meist getrennt – auf einer Art Abenteuerurlaub, wobei die sympathischen Liebesleute sich nichts entgehen lassen, was den zeitgemäßen Tourismus so kurzweilig gestaltet.«

Amazing but true: If Daniil Trifonov hadn’t started composing, he probably wouldn’t have become a pianist either. First there was composing, he likes to confess. The piano came later. So it is not surprising that composition and interpretation are equally important for Trifonov. This once again reveals the special position of the modest world star, for the double talents of composers and instrumental virtuosos are rare these days. In concert with the Bamberg Symphony Orchestra, Trifonov can now be heard in both of his professions. How much he let himself be inspired by the music of his famous ancestor Sergei Rachmaninov, he definitely doesn’t keep his mouth shut in his first piano concerto. As far as virtuosity, storm and urge are concerned, he cannot deny his role models and yet takes his very own Trifonovian path.

About the performance
Brilliant young Czech maestro Jakub Hrůša returns to the MSO with Dvořák’s subtly scored orchestral ballad, The Wood Dove, based on a Czech legend of infatuation and murder in a rural village. A muted funeral march, a typical Dvořákian wedding dance and the tragic epilogue, relieved by the song of the wood dove. Ukranian-born Vadim Gluzman is a superb violinist of the Russian school and his interpretation of the beloved Tchaikovsky concerto with its fiery virtuosity and wistful poetry is not to be missed.
Mussorgsky’s wrote his famous memorial to his dear friend, the artist Victor Harmann in the form of a suite of piano pieces depicting the composer “roving through the exhibition, now leisurely, now briskly, in order to come closer to a picture that had attracted his attention, and at times sadly, thinking of his departed friend.”
Ravel was on his own mission when he orchestrated the suite in 1922. With a strong experimental impulse he introduces new sounds with the saxophone and celeste, and explores the outermost reaches of instrumental possibilities in his search for new colours and contrasts. Revel in Ravel’s great 20th century orchestral showpiece.

We visited the Elbphilharmonie for the first time last season, giving a tremendous concert performance of »Don Giovanni« in its entirety, which inspired a critic to write: »Every bar breathes and throbs. One would probably have to think back decades rather than years to remember the last time Hamburg enjoyed such a musically satisfying evening of Mozart opera.« We are very excited to have been invited back, and this time will be performing one of our signature works: Smetana’s »Má vlast (My Fatherland)«, a picture book brimming with musical images from our Bohemian homeland, which thus forms a perfect match for our motto of »symphonic tales«. Albrecht Mayer, who was our solo oboist for many years and is now thrilling audiences across the globe, will accompany us to the city on the Elbe. He will interpret Richard Strauss’s Oboe Concerto, which is a real rarity in the oeuvre of this master of the symphonic poem: Strauss regarded the solo concerto as an old-fashioned genre too closely associated with the age of »hyped-up virtuosos«. Despite this, he succeeded in producing an exciting and indeed highly virtuoso work! He composed it shortly after the Second World War – at the suggestion of an American soldier, as legend would have it. He referred to it ironically as a »wrist exercise«, written »to chase away the boredom of leisurely hours, as one cannot spend all day playing skat.« He also said while composing it: »I’m not working, I’m amusing myself!« The result was a supreme achievement: in the concerto, one scene is followed by the next – and the oboe slips from one role into another, like in a masque!

»A story well told turns ears into eyes.« Together with our principal conductor Jakub Hrůša, on our tour we will be leafing through the most famous musical picture-book of our Bohemian homeland: the cycle »Má vlast (My Fatherland)« is a national epic written by Smetana, whose life was full of struggle, suffering and pain. He experienced the greatest possible blow to a musician, going completely deaf. Desperate, he wrote that he could »hear neither speaking nor playing nor singing«: »The internal mechanism – this marvellous claviature of our internal organism – is impaired, out of tune, the hammers are jammed, and no tuner has hitherto been able to repair the keyboard.« After losing his hearing, he was no longer able to give concerts but could still compose, as he was able to imagine the »notes in his mind« and hear them »internally, as if in a dream«. Despite his cruel lot, he thus conjured up the legend-filled history of his people in »Má vlast« in a fascinating manner. The individual scenes of these six »symphonic tales« take vivid shape before the audience’s eyes: the memory of the royal castle Vyšehrad’s glorious past, sung of by a minstrel, the rustling of the Bohemian forests and the moving beauty of the open countryside. Legendary characters are brought to life: the fierce Amazon Šárka, the brave Hussites and the army of knights led by St. Wenceslas slumbering in the legendary mountain Blaník. The Vltava flows freely from its mountain source, past mermaids dancing in the silent moonlit night and a country wedding, then on to the towers and bridges of Prague – before becoming lost in the lowland plains. This masterpiece by Smetana truly »turns ears into eyes«!

BRAHMS Symphony No. 3
Immerse yourself in a programme of three great works of German Romanticism, conducted by the Philharmonia’s Principal Guest Conductor, Jakub Hrůša.
The two completed movements of Schubert’s Symphony No. 8 are an object lesson in orchestral writing. Opening with a whisper from cellos and double basses, the music bubbles up into what a critic at the first performance described as ‘a sweet stream of melodies… so crystal-clear that you can see every pebble on the bottom’.
Mendelssohn’s much-loved Violin Concerto, too, brims with lyricism. Mendelssohn wrote it for his childhood friend Ferdinand David, leader of the Leipzig Gewandhaus orchestra, and it quickly attained the status it retains today as one of the essential works in the violin repertoire.
Brahms was at the height of his powers when he composed his Third Symphony, no longer assailed by self-doubt as he was with his First (performed on 4 November 2018). He built into each movement the motif F – A flat – F, standing for his personal motto ‘Frei aber Froh’, ‘free but happy’, and created a masterpiece, full of intensity and drama as well as moments of quiet, reflective beauty.

Not every story has a happy ending! For his symphonic poem, Dvořák selected a subject-matter from his fellow countryman Karel Jaromír Erben’s ballad collection »Kytice«: the »Wood Pigeon« is based upon an old Bohemian legend about the feigned sorrow of a woman who murdered her husband to marry her lover. The pigeon’s song becomes the voice of her conscience, accusing her ceaselessly until she kills herself in despair. A funeral march runs through the entire tone poem – although Dvořák brings the piece to a conciliatory conclusion. After this, an instrument only rarely in the spotlight will make a grand appearance: our orchestra’s tuba player, Heiko Triebener, will interpret the multifaceted concerto »Landscape« by Torbjörn Ivan Lundquist. In his works, the Swedish composer was always concerned with »the essence of life; not to escape reality, but to reinstate it.« His tuba concerto is a fascinating and virtuoso exploration of the specific sound of the lowest brass instrument. Lundquist was struck with the idea for this piece on the west coast of Sweden: »The title alludes to the ideal state of nature or a landscape before its ecological balance is disturbed – and this also applies metaphorically to the inner ‘landscape’ of human beings.« Brahms’s Second Symphony was also shaped by the experience of nature: drafted during a summer on the Wörthersee, it is occasionally referred to as his »Pastoral Symphony«. Many of its passages seem to be flooded with sunlight, like the place it was written – but the composer also warned a friend: »You will never have heard anything filled with greater Weltschmerz.« To conclude, we will be performing a brand new work by the musical magician Detlev Glanert, whose music is always moving. We can all look forward to the premiere of his »angry« Allegro!

The church of St. Michael had to be closed in November 2012. Ever since then, Bamberg’s citizens have had to do without their favourite wedding church. At present, neither the wonderful garden of heaven on the church’s arched ceiling, nor Bishop Otto’s grave, nor any of the other church treasures are available for viewing. St. Michael’s historic organ has fallen silent and, like many things in and around the former monastery church, needs to be restored. The proceeds of this charity concert will go to the Bamberg World Cultural Heritage Foundation to support the church’s renovation. Join us for an outstanding concert in aid of a good cause, and help to preserve one of Bamberg’s greatest gems!

BOHUSLAV MARTINŮ PHILHARMONIC ORCHESTRA
Conductor: Jakub Hrůša
Leoš Janáček’s three-act opera The Cunning Little Vixen is based on motifs of Rudolf Těsnohlídek’s tale of the same name which came out first in serial form in the newspaper ‘Lidové Noviny’ and subsequently in book form. Janáček wrote the opera, his seventh, from 1921-1923 and over time it has become one of his most frequently performed operas. In addition to its unprecedented melodic inventiveness, striking eloquence and correspondingly dramatic denouement, an interesting feature of the work is the characters’ use of fox dialect and the slang used by woodcutters in the Adamov area. Tonight the Orchestra performs the full suite and two extracts from the opera, with the solo parts sung by the Prague National Theatre’s Opera Company sopranos Kateřina Kněžíková and Alžběta Poláčková, and leading baritone and 2017 Thália Prize winner Svatopluk Sem.
The four symphonies written by Robert Schumann represent a conceptual link between those of Beethoven and Brahms. His third C-major symphony was completed in 1846 but is designated Symphony no. 2 because Schumann revised the original second symphony in D minor a few years after it was written. Opus 61, as performed by the Orchestra tonight, is the result of Schumann’s strong yearning from within to extricate himself from a creative crisis of sorts and redeem some of his earlier less successful compositions.
Both tonight’s works are played by the Bohuslav Martinů Philharmonic under the baton of Jakub Hrůša, who is justly recognised as one of the world’s top-flight conductors.
