The concert begins with Mozart’s Trio in E major, a graceful and lyrical work highlighting his gift for chamber music. From there, the program moves to the Sonata for Violin and Piano by Maurice Ravel, the great French composer of the early 20th century, whose music shimmers with color and atmosphere.

The Chiaroscuro Quartet is named for the Italian term for light and shade in art, an apt description of their refined phrasing and ability to illuminate familiar works with their subtle period-instrument tones. The ensemble’s recording of Mendelssohn’s Op. 13 prompted the Observer to conclude that its ‘unadorned sound is a shock to the ears of the best, most arresting kind’. It begins this morning with the intricate musical argument of Beethoven’s final string quartet, considered by the composer Robert Simpson to contain ‘the most sensitively coloured quartet writing in existence’.

Full focus on the music: Every year, several members of the Duisburg Philharmonic Orchestra travel to Italy, more precisely to the picturesque little town of Montepulciano, not far from Siena. There, surrounded by the sun-drenched Tuscan landscape, is the Academy of Music and Performing Arts, where the musicians can intensively hone selected works that they will present to the Duisburg audience upon their return from the south. Fittingly, this time's program includes Brahms's cheerful String Quintet No. 2, which he composed during his summer vacation in Bad Ischl. This will be accompanied by Mendelssohn Bartholdy's String Quintet No. 1, composed in the spring of 1826, when he was 17 years old.

At the age of 22, Richard Strauss traveled to Rome and Naples. He subsequently captured his impressions in a composition: "From Italy." He called this work a "symphonic fantasy"—it is no longer a symphony (despite its four movements), but it is not yet a symphonic poem either. The third movement, "On the Beach of Sorrento," unfolds a fascinating, almost impressionistic soundscape, unusual for Strauss. The composer spoke of a "mood picture," an interweaving of natural sounds (wind, water, birdcalls) with his own feelings.

The turning point was the failed revolution of 1848–49: before, music was forward-looking, young, like spring; after, it became bombastic, supporting the state. No wonder Yannick Nézet-Séguin always turns to early Romanticism like to a secret, first love. Listen to your inner revolutionary with Schubert, Weber, and Mendelssohn – it's so refreshing!

After opening the season with Gustav Mahler's Symphony No. 7, Chief Conductor Marcus Bosch concludes the Philharmonic Concert series with the composer's Symphony No. 9 – and it's time to say goodbye. Composed in Toblach and New York, this large-scale symphony is Mahler's last completed work. The then New York Chief Conductor looks back with nostalgia, bids farewell, and seems to capitulate with his visions. The result was an impressive and bold sonic edifice, with which he builds a world using every means at his disposal – ultimately crossing the threshold to modernity.

The most beautiful melodies and subtle nuances follow on the path to the thrilling finale. Felix Mendelssohn's overture "Ruy Blas" was also once described as "brilliantly chivalrous," opening the program with solemn wind sounds and stormy vehemence. The evening then embarks on a grand journey with Mendelssohn's atmospheric "Scottish Symphony." The evening will be conducted by the celebrated Maxim Emelyanychev.

Among Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy's instrumental concertos, his Violin Concerto has held a particularly high status since its composition and premiere in the mid-1840s. As a work of great melodic qualities, harmonic finesse, and rhythmic intensity, it has not been without reason that it has garnered much admiration. Maurice Ravel's ballet music for Daphnis et Chloé , composed and premiered for the Ballets Russes in 1912 , is undoubtedly one of the masterpieces of French Impressionism, featuring floating sounds and rich color nuances, as well as a wordless chorus. A story from Greek mythology is impressively relived with and through music.

Their program features works by Wolfgang Amadé Mozart, Felix Mendelssohn, Grażyna Bacewicz, and a newly revised version of Joan Tower’s Wild Summer.

A sextet? A chamber concerto, rather, which Felix Mendelssohn completed in about ten days, in the spring of 1824 – he was only fifteen years old. The music flows like pure water, the general tone, both light and virtuoso, draws an evanescent Andante, escaped from the generous muse of an adolescent who would say: "I would gladly exchange my virtues for the sins of Mozart." Clarity, transparency, generosity are also the qualities of the third of Dvořák's string quintets, breathing far from his native Bohemia, the fresh air of the Midwest, where the composer was staying at the time: pure enchantment.

Felix Mendelssohn's "A Midsummer Night's Dream" combines feather-light ghost dances and sparkling gaiety. The music, composed in 1843, is arguably the most beautiful musical setting of Shakespeare's comedy of the same name. In it, young people lose themselves in a fairy world and experience turbulent emotional turmoil. 150 years earlier, the British composer Henry Purcell composed his equally heartwarming stage work "The Fairy Queen" on the same subject. Marie Jacquot, the future WDR chief conductor, also leads the musical mythical creatures of Norwegian conductor Kristine Tjøgersen through the enchanted summer night forest.

Vintage baroque meets pure rock in this spirited double bill. Because when Vilde Frang and Kammerorchester Basel tackle Bach together, you know sparks will fly. The Norwegian string queen chose not only a violin concerto but also a harpsichord concerto, massaged into string music. And then there are Mendelssohn's string symphonies, brimming with youthful exuberance, and the Holberg Suite, in which Grieg proves that the spirit of Bach lingers even in the Far North.

Felix Mendelssohn filled his magnificent Second Symphony with festive fanfares, roaring orchestral cascades, and atmospheric choirs to celebrate the 400th anniversary of the invention of the printing press.

Three works inspired in very different ways by folk music and the mix of different cultures. Perú Negro (Black Peru), by San Diego Symphony’s Composer-in-Residence Jimmy López, was composed in 2012, and in the words of the composer “showcases my native country’s Afro-Peruvian heritage” while celebrating the exuberant fusion of African and Latin elements in the popular music of his native land. Alban Berg’s last completed work, his mystical Violin Concerto, was written in 1935 “to the memory of an angel”. The angel was Manon, the daughter of Alma Mahler (by her second husband) who had died a few months earlier at the age of 18. Berg includes in his concerto a beautiful folk-tune from the Southern Austrian Catholic region of Carinthia, and a haunting old German Protestant hymn-tune, which Bach had used several times. Mendelssohn’s "Scottish" Symphony, like his Hebrides Overture, was inspired by his youthful trip to Scotland where the young Berliner was overwhelmed by the feeling of a haunting and ancient culture. In his symphony we hear echoes of Scottish traditional music for bagpipes, fiddles and harps, the skipping rhythms of Scottish folk dancing, and Romantic impressions of ruined medieval castles and monasteries.

He was not yet 15 years old when Mendelssohn Bartholdy was already able to present twelve short so-called string symphonies. They were already far more than compositional finger exercises and caused open-mouthed performances at the distinguished concerts in his parents' garden hall (with professional musicians from the royal court orchestra!). And then Bach: musical demands on the performer? Oh yes! Precision, logical phrasing, teamwork, and a soaring sound. Perfectly suited to Vilde Frang. And his popularity among the audience? Ten!

Felix Mendelssohn’s Octet in E flat Major, composed when the composer was just sixteen, follows as a dazzling celebration of youthful genius—brimming with lyrical beauty, precision, and exuberant energy. Together, these works offer a striking contrast of passion and brilliance, uniting tradition and innovation in an unforgettable evening of chamber music.
