Written for his friend and mentor Joseph Joachim, the soaring Violin Concerto represents Brahms at his brightest and is a cornerstone of the Romantic repertoire. Virtuoso Abigél Králik, a veteran of Forbes’ “30 Under 30” list, will invigorate this timeless classic with a fresh and youthful perspective. The piece is paired with Paul Hindemith’s probing and powerful symphony Mathis der Maler, a proving ground for material for his opera on the life of Renaissance painter Matthias Grünewald.

Cardillac cannot part with his art. The jeweler must kill anyone who buys jewelry from him. E.T.A. Hoffmann’s novella «Das Fräulein von Scuderi», one of the first German detective stories, served as source material for Paul Hindemith. His 1926 opera is a milestone in the development of music theater. A century years after its premiere, theater and filmmaker Kornél Mundruczó stages this thriller about obsessions, control, and self-alienation.

Perfect for a romantic evening out, this concert highlights musical couples, from the sweeping passion of Tchaikovsky’s Romeo and Juliet Fantasy Overture to the joyous sparkle of Glinka’s Ruslan and Lyudmila Overture. Hindemith’s Symphonic Metamorphosis on Themes of Weber, a colorful orchestral tour de force written shortly after he immigrated to America, references the story of Turandot and Prince Calaf. Mozart’s deeply expressive Sinfonia Concertante features a real-life couple as soloists, violinist Qing Hou and violist Lawrence Neuman, bringing an extra layer of connection to the performance.

Beethoven chose E-flat major for his last piano concerto, the heroic key from his Eroica. This weighty classic, played here by the sensationally talented young pianist Justus Friedrich Eichorn from Weimar, who had already caused quite a stir, is correspondingly energetic, brilliant, and virtuosic. And before Hindemith sends his painterly hero from the time of the Peasants' War, who would later become the title character of his famous opera, through a turbulent life, cast in music and sadly too rarely heard, Mozart's Schürzenjäger takes the stage. The overture to "Don Giovanni" is a masterpiece in just a few minutes, a character study of the title character that is among the most artistic in operatic literature.

Paul Hindemith’s Symphonie Mathis der Maler is a riveting musical portrait of the German Renaissance painter Matthias Grünewald, who ultimately abandoned his art to devote himself to his people’s political and military struggle for freedom. Ottorino Respighi’s brilliantly crafted four-movement tone poem, The Pines of Rome, paints a vivid musical picture of four settings around the perimeter of the Eternal City: the gardens of the Villa Borghese, the ancient Catacombs, the Janiculum hill, and the grandiose Appian Way.

This chamber concert takes the audience on an exciting journey through the world of violin sonatas, from the Classical period (Mozart, Beethoven) through the Romantic period (Brahms) to the modern era (Hindemith). It's interesting to observe how differently the composers handled the two instruments and their musical interplay, which was certainly also due to their personal relationships with the instrument: Mozart and Hindemith were also violinists themselves, while Beethoven and Brahms were pianists.

Although violin and cello are essentially siblings, there were no significant double concertos for these two instruments before Brahms. He actually only wrote one because he had two special artist colleagues in mind for whom he wanted to compose something: the famous violinist Joseph Joachim and the cellist Robert Hausmann. However, it was a complete success, and today the concerto is among the most popular and frequently performed of its kind. Completed unfinished - that's how one could also call Franz Schubert's Symphony in B minor, because even without the "missing" movements, it is a masterpiece. Moreover, it is full of secrets. To this day, it is not known why Schubert did not finish it, nor why a friend kept it locked away for 40 years. It is also unknown why Schubert wrote it in the key of B minor, which was unusual in his time. However, all of this does not diminish the work, on the contrary, with each listening one can discover something new and be amazed.

This anniversary program invites you to a Hindemith-style celebration of his milestone birthday: with music that is unusual and rich, playful yet provocative, from his mature and youthful, rebellious days – all by Hindemith. This pioneer of modernism from Hanau opposed the cult of genius and the confessional nature of Romanticism throughout his life, in favor of a "new objectivity" that embraced parodic elements, quotations, and a playful engagement with popular genres. From Hindemith's extensive oeuvre, you will experience four sonatas for viola, oboe, and cello – with, without, or even solo piano – as well as an unconventional serenade. Chamber music at its finest!

Under the heading "Time Machine", the 11th Philharmonic Concert as part of the Duisburg Philharmonic's "New Ways" project offers a journey back in time: The program refers to a concert that was played exactly 100 years ago as part of a music festival in the city of Duisburg. The "Concerto for Orchestra" by Paul Hindemith had its premiere there, conducted by the prominent General Music Director Paul Scheinpflug. Also on the program from 100 years ago: Beethoven's Violin Concerto and music by Rudi Stephan, who was one of the most promising young composers at the time before he died tragically young in the First World War. Instead of Beethoven's Violin Concerto, Axel Kober has put his 4th Piano Concerto on the program, in which the young British pianist and rising star Isata Kanneh-Mason makes her debut with the orchestra. And as a musical tribute to the former General Music Director, there is also the "Shakespeare Overture" by Paul Scheinpflug. However, the concert is not just a reconstruction of Duisburg's rich musical history, but also a lively and critical examination of history: the music festival took place on the occasion of the "millennial celebration of the Rhineland", so it was definitely in a German-national context.

Die Glocke

A hen, a swan, the nightingale and other birds come together here: Haydn had anything but poultry in mind when he wrote his Symphony No. 83, but because of the "cackling" theme in the second movement, a clever contemporary gave the work its famous nickname - "La poule". Hindemith, on the other hand, used some themes from folk songs in his viola concerto, including in the third movement. "Seid ihr nicht der Schwanendreher" is heard there - and the concerto already had its nickname. Bernd Alois Zimmermann's Un petit rien is also ornithological. The work, which was created as radio play music, consists of seven aphoristic movements that are clearly more than just "Ein kleine Nicht". Igor Stravinsky's symphonic poem Le chant du rossignol was based on his first opera The Nightingale, which is based on the fairy tale of the same name by Hans Christian Andersen. It will not only be incredibly good, but also magical – and with Elena Schwarz at the podium and violist Tabea Zimmermann, it will be another highlight of the anniversary season!

The stage is set for our favourite organist, who is also in great demand on the international scene: In the last organ concert of this season, Christian Schmitt will play our large concert hall organ – accompanied by our solo flutist Daniela Koch and our deputy solo violist Branko Kabadaić. The concert begins with a fascinating etude for organ pedal, which Christian Schmitt premièred in Zurich in 2023 – and about which the composer Maximilian Schnaus writes: »The musical idea illuminates the peripheral areas of the organ sound and the peripheral areas of our perception.« Liszt studied Bach’s organ works and passions intensively, particularly during his time in Weimar – and his affection for this Baroque master found intimate expression in the Andante »Aus tiefer Not«, written in 1859. Paul Hindemith wrote this touching funeral music on a concert tour in London on 21 January 1936 within a few hours after King George V had died there on the previous day. Bach’s masterful Sonata in G major captivates with its skilful interweaving of voices between the two instruments. For César Franck, it was clear: »Mon orgue? – C'est un orchestre!« And that is exactly how his magnificent musical creations sound – including the »Grande pièce symphonique«, completed in 1862, which even bears the required orchestral gesture in its title. Tōru Takemitsu, the cosmopolitan and influential composer from Japan, created an almost revolutionary work in 1971 with his flute piece »Voice« – because the human voice is included here in an interesting way. To wrap things up, the concertino by Cécile Chaminade, written in 1902, impresses with its breathtaking virtuosity, passionate gestures, shimmering harmonies and yearning melodies.
