  • Nuveen Investments Emerging Artist Violinist Julia Fischer Joins the Cso and Riccardo Muti for June Subscription Concerts at Symphony Center
    For Immediate Release: Press Contacts: June 13, 2016 Eileen Chambers, 312-294-3092 Photos Available By Request [email protected] NUVEEN INVESTMENTS EMERGING ARTIST VIOLINIST JULIA FISCHER JOINS THE CSO AND RICCARDO MUTI FOR JUNE SUBSCRIPTION CONCERTS AT SYMPHONY CENTER June 16 – 21, 2016 CHICAGO—Internationally acclaimed violinist Julia Fischer returns to Symphony Center for subscription concerts with the Chicago Symphony Orchestra (CSO) led by Music Director Riccardo Muti on Thursday, June 16, at 8 p.m., Friday, June 17, at 1:30 p.m., Saturday, June 18, at 8 p.m., and Tuesday, June 21, at 7:30 p.m. The program features Brahms’ Serenade No. 1 and Beethoven’s Violin Concerto in D Major with Fischer as soloist. Fischer’s CSO appearances in June are endowed in part by the Nuveen Investments Emerging Artist Fund, which is committed to nurturing the next generation of great classical music artists. Julia Fischer joins Muti and the CSO for Beethoven’s Violin Concerto. Widely recognized as the first “Romantic” concerto, Beethoven’s lush and virtuosic writing in the work opened the traditional form to new possibilities for the composers who would follow him. The second half of the program features Brahms’ Serenade No. 1. Originally composed as chamber music, Brahms later adapted the work for full orchestra, offering a preview of the rich compositional style that would emerge in his four symphonies. The six-movement serenade is filled with lyrical wind and string passages, as well as exuberant writing in the allegro and scherzo movements. German violinist Julia Fischer won the Yehudi Menuhin International Violin Competition at just 11, launching her career as a solo and orchestral violinist.

  • Musikfest Berlin 2021 Programm
    #MusikfestBerlin 28.8.– 20.9. 2021 2., aktualisierte Auflage In Zusammenarbeit mit 28.8.– 20.9. 2021 MUSIKFEST BERLIN 2021 Von der Freude an der musikalischen Kreation Das Spätwerk Igor Strawinskys beim Musikfest Berlin 2021 mit Musik von Carlo Gesualdo bis zu Heiner Goebbels und Olga Neuwirth Vom 28. August bis 20. September 2021 startet das Berliner Konzertleben mit dem Musikfest Berlin in die neue Spiel zeit, veranstaltet von den Berliner Festspielen, in Kooperation mit der Stiftung Berliner Philharmoniker. In 34 Veranstaltun­ gen wird im Großen Saal der Philharmonie und deren Kam­ mermusiksaal, im Konzerthaus am Gendarmenmarkt und im Großen Sendesaal des rbb Musik aus fünf Jahrhunderten präsentiert: über 100 Werke von 52 Komponist*innen, aufge­ führt von 29 Instrumental­ und Vokalensembles und 35 Solist*innen des internationalen und Berliner Musiklebens. Man hat ihn den Picasso unter den Komponist*in- nen genannt. Als Igor Strawinsky vor 50 Jahren 88-jährig verstarb, war ein Lebenswerk entstanden, das dem des Malers zu gleichen scheint: voll der überraschenden Wandlungen, Aneignungen und Umformungen, souverän der Zeit eine unver- kennbare Gestalt gebend, die Provokation und Extravaganz nicht scheuend, bewundert und gefeiert, getragen von der unverbrüchlichen Freude an der musikalischen Kreation (plaisir de la création), wie er in seiner „Musikalischen Poetik“ schrieb. „Strawinsky bleibt“ (Stravinsky demeure) prognostizierte der junge Pierre Boulez 1951. Da war Strawinsky gerade im Begriff, sich künstlerisch nochmals neu zu erfinden. Sein entdeckerischer Sinn wandte sich der historisch fernen Musik der Renaissance, des Frühbarocks und Mittelalters zu. Insbesondere fesselten ihn die Madrigale des 2 ital ­­ienischen Fürsten Don Carlo Gesualdo da Venosa. Das war die eine Blickrichtung.

Indeed, both as compositions and as far as the treatment of the violin is concerned, they do clearly stand out against the “major” Concertos K.216, K.218 and K.219: however, this is not nec- essarily mirrored in the length of these two works. Rather, one notices in both earlier concertos the distinctive influence of Italian violin virtuosos of the Baroque. In the violin part there are virtuoso semiquaver and even demisemiquaver passages, which are nowhere to be seen in the later concertos.
