6th Chamber Music Concert in the Vienna State Opera

You can simply go to a concert at the Philharmonie, spontaneously, during your lunch break – and with free admission: every Wednesday at 13:00 between September and June. The programme lasts 40 to 50 minutes: chamber music, piano works or a percussion duo – everything from Tchaikovsky to tango. Members of the Berliner Philharmoniker and the Karajan Academy regularly perform, as well as guests from the Deutsches Symphonie-Orchester, the Staatskapelle Berlin and the Berlin music conservatories. As can be expected at a lunch concert, catering is available from 12 noon until shortly before the concert begins.

Lunch concert

Berliner Philharmoniker

Joseph Haydn's three violin concertos are worth discovering! The concerto in C major, composed in the early 1760s for the Italian violinist Luigi Tomasini, stands out. The celebrated virtuoso was concertmaster of the Esterházy court orchestra in Burgenland, which Haydn conducted. The Viennese classic, affectionately known as "Papa Haydn", also fascinated the Pulitzer Prize-winning American Caroline Shaw. In her piece "Entr'acte" (2011), she quotes extensively from Haydn's last string quartet.

Romantic – Gigantic!

Zeughaus Neuss

Romanticism has many facets, and some of the most beautiful can be heard here. The range extends from the stroke of genius of the 14-year-old Franz Schubert to the Spring Fantasy of the late Romantic Delius. As well as Schubert, Schumann, Grieg and Brahms are represented in our program with songs that the Swiss composer Fabian Müller has arranged for clarinet and string orchestra. The fifth of the once immensely popular serenades by Robert Fuchs will be heard at the end. Fuchs, the Viennese teacher of Gustav Mahler, Richard Strauss and many others, pays homage to his colleague Johann Strauss in the last movement of his work - with quotes from "The Bat".

Tonight, Carlos Kalmar and the Grant Park Orchestra offer up one of Johannes Brahms' favorite composers with the Fuchs Symphony No. 2 alongside Brahms' cheeky Academic Festival Overture. Also, the Orchestra welcomes one of the most exciting young musicians to come onto the music scene in recent years. Composer and bass-player extraordinaire Xavier Foley joins the Grant Park Orchestra to play the Divertimento Concertante by the legendary Italian film composer Nino Rota. 

Brahms Academic Festival Overture

Millennium Park

What do Hugo Wolf, Gustav Mahler, Richard Strauss, Jean Sibelius and Alexander Zemlinsky have in common? They studied with Robert Fuchs at the Vienna Conservatory. His own work faded behind the success of his students. With his Terzett in A major in the rare instrumentation for two violins and viola, Fuchs shows himself to be an admirer of Brahms. Hans Gál, born in Lower Austria in 1890, was also inspired by Brahms. He studied in Vienna and taught there at the New Conservatory. After fleeing from the National Socialists, Gál lived in Great Britain. His Quintet for clarinet and string quartet, composed in 1977, oscillates between late Romanticism and almost classical transparency. The program concludes with one of Franz Schubert’s great chamber music works, his Piano Trio No. 1 in B flat major. The Viennese composer completed it in 1828, the year of his death, and the symphonic structure of this work went beyond the usual framework. Great music between lightness and epic depth.
