This evening, our concertmaster Ilian Garnetz will have the opportunity to showcase his talent on stage. His talent was nurtured from an early age: raised in an artistic family, he made his solo debut at the age of ten and later studied with, among others, Igor Oistrakh. Today, he is a prizewinner of major competitions and a sought-after chamber musician. For this chamber concert, he has compiled a richly evocative and captivating program, which he will present with great pleasure together with Stanislav Jar at the piano – a musical reflection of a vibrant era full of contrasts. The concert opens with a dazzling work by George Enescu, often called the "Romanian Mozart," who, as a violinist and composer, masterfully wove folkloric elements into his music.

Join us as we journey from the origins of musical classicism to the opening salvo of the Romantic era. Following CPE Bach’s energetic Symphony in B-flat Major, we showcase LA Phil cellist David Garrett in Hadyn’s beloved Cello Concerto in D Major. The program continues with Schubert’s sparkling Symphony No. 5 and Carl Maria von Weber’s landmark “Invitation to the Dance,” a piece historian John Warrack called “the first and still perhaps most brilliant and poetic example of the Romantic concert waltz.”

“After dinner, I prevailed upon CPE Bach to sit down again to a clavichord…he grew so animated and possessed, that he not only played, but looked like one inspired.” Possessed and entranced too is the F major symphony by CPE Bach: kinks and coils at every turn, with heaps of non-sequiturs that fit bizarrely and beautifully together. Internationally renowned violinist and Philharmonia favorite Shunske Sato guides us through the connection between works by some of the 18th and 19th centuries’ most beloved composers.

As a globally sought-after specialist and interpreter of early music, he regularly unearths pieces from the Baroque to the Bel Canto era: Attilio Cremonesi has compiled rarities from the 18th century for this program. From the so-called Age of Sensibility come the first examples of the emerging genre of symphony, whose development into the classical form in Haydn can be observed in this concert. These are complemented by artful concert arias, sung by soprano Josefine Mindus from the music theater ensemble.

6th Symphony Concert: Early Classical period

Hessisches Staatstheater Wiesbaden

Pianist Sebastian Knauer and a string quintet take a musical journey from the Baroque to the Classical period, in which the development of the piano concerto genre within the Bach family is shown in a fascinating way. Father Johann Sebastian was the first composer ever to give the piano/harpsichord a solo role alongside the orchestra. His sons Carl Philipp Emanuel, Wilhelm Friedemann and Johann Christian masterfully continued this tradition, and adapted their concertos both to contemporary taste and to innovations in musical instrument making. In this respect, the Bach family made a significant contribution to the emancipation of the piano as a solo instrument in the mid-18th century on the way to Mozart. The Bach sons’ piano concertos in this program are rarities, very rarely heard in concert.

Since 2010, chamber music ensembles of the Staatskapelle have been performing at the Bode Museum, a jewel of Berlin's museum landscape. Matinee concerts lasting just over an hour in the Gobelin Hall, with diverse programs that include music from the Baroque and Classical periods as well as works from the Romantic and Modern periods, can easily lead into further hours in the museum—for example, with a guided tour of the exhibition and the "Artwork of the Day," a private tour, or a culinary finale in the stylish museum café.

With the rebellion against the Enlightenment’s rational order (and gathering clouds of war and and revolution in Europe and America’s colonies), art, literature, theater and music found its own way to interpret societal storm and stress.  The program focuses on works penned between 1760s and 70s in a short period referenced as Sturm und Drang. The KSO’s Associate Conductor Thomas Consolo foments the evening’s toil and trouble.

Curated and conducted by David Hayes, this program juxtaposes Baroque and Pre-Classical music with works inspired by this period, offering a fresh perspective—like old wine in new bottles. Anchored by Bach’s Brandenburg Concerto No. 2 and C.P.E. Bach’s Symphony in D Major, the program contrasts these masterpieces with works from the early 20th c.—Respighi’s Gli Uccelli and Richard Strauss’ Dance Suite after Couperin—compositions that were inspired by Baroque keyboard music. Known for his inventive programming, David Hayes pairs unexpected works to invite audiences to experience the thrill of discovery and hear older music through a new lens.

Baroque Inspirations

Kimmel Center for the Performing Arts

He was perhaps the greatest genius in music history, later eclipsed, if at all, only by the child prodigy Mozart. Yet Johann Sebastian Bach not only gifted posterity with numerous musical masterpieces, but also with several sons, some of whom followed in their all-powerful father's footsteps. First and foremost, Carl Philipp Emanuel, Johann Sebastian Bach's second eldest son, whose "sensitive" style made him the most popular Bach of the second half of the 18th century—while Johann Sebastian Bach's eldest son, Wilhelm Friedemann, was famous during his lifetime primarily for his phenomenal improvisational skills on all keyboard instruments. When Asya Fateyeva and her fellow musicians perform Baroque sonatas by the Bach dynasty, they do so on an instrument that Bach himself could not have even known, for the saxophone was not invented until the 19th century. When the saxophonist approaches early music on a comparatively modern instrument, she does so in the spirit of Bach: He was not only interested in the compositional possibilities of new or improved instruments such as the "Well-Tempered Clavier," but was also extremely flexible in instrumentation questions in his masterful compositions.

Leon Botstein leads TŌN in a concert of music spanning over 200 years, with four 20th-century works presented alongside a brief symphony from 1776. The program begins with Ulysses Kay’s Chariots, inspired by the writings of poet William Blake and others, and John Cage’s whimsical Suite for Toy Piano, both in solo performance by Frank Corliss and Lou Harrison’s orchestration. Then we explore three symphonies of different styles: Stravinsky’s expressive Symphony in C; C. P. E. Bach’s adventurous Symphony in D Major, and one of Albert Roussel’s most beloved works, the vivacious Third Symphony, written for the 50th anniversary of the Boston Symphony Orchestra in 1930.

Hungarian musician Áron Horváth began playing his country’s national instrument – the cimbalom – at the age of seven. He initially performed traditional Hungarian folk music, but over the years has broadened his scope to include both classical and jazz. In 2023, he was admitted to the prestigious Liszt Academy in Budapest to study classical cimbalom, and in the same year became a member of two prominent ensembles: Elán, which explores the folk music of Central and Eastern Europe, and Intergeese, a jazz trio performing original compositions.

A toast to defiance! Nothing inspires creativity more than the will to resist. Take, for example, when Josef Suk writes variations on the secret national anthem of the Czechs on the eve of World War I. Or when Carl Philipp Emanuel Bach lets loose in his D minor concerto, while his employer, Frederick II, prefers galant tones. Further examples are the serenade with which Hugo Wolf responded to the failure of his overture to the opera "Penthesilea": a Mediterranean serenade with the motto "just don't let yourself be defeated." And the Opus 4 of the frustrated college student Benjamin Britten: His "Simple Symphony" consists of musical snippets he composed when he was 10 or 12 years old...

Music by Johann Sebastian Bach and his second-eldest son forms the focus of this concert program. In the second half of the 18th century, Carl Philipp Emanuel's compositions were on everyone's lips, whereas his father's now-famous works had largely been forgotten. Although the relationship has since reversed, the music of Bach's son, with its lightness and profound charm, exudes the magic of its era—and, not least, represents a significant contribution to the development of the symphony up to Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy.

Those who frequent the KSO (indoors and out), know that all forms of jazz fit comfortably within the KSO’s wheelhouse. Stumbling upon intriguing jazz orchestrations of Bach, Mozart, Brahms, Dvorak, Gershwin, Holst, Suppe, Verdi, led James Cassidy to assemble an All-Star Big Band to end the 33rd season with a bang.

The concert opens with the jazz piano stylings of Eugen Cicero and his take on C.P.E. Bach’s Solfeggio in C minor. Consummate 1950s-60s arranger Billy May’s no-holds-barred approach to Hungarian Dance No. 5, Poet and Peasant Overture, Humoresque and others, paired with today’s big band guru Gordon Goodwin’s interpolations of the Two-part Invention in D minor, Symphony No. 40 in G minor and Rhapsody in Blue, and Jeremy Levy’s re-imagining of The Planets sets the stage for a veritable “hornucopia” of in your face classics à la jazz to close the KSO’s 33rd campaign.

Samuel Barber's "Adagio for Strings" has become an iconic piece of music through its use in films. However, it was originally written in 1936 as the second movement of a string quartet. Like Barber, Grammy-winning composer Jessie Montgomery comes from the USA. Her short piece "Starburst" (2012) tells of the explosive birth of new stars in "rapidly changing musical colors," she says.

Zeughaus Neuss

During the 17th century, the term "Symphony" or "Sinfonia" was usually applied to the opening music for operas, oratorios and cantatas. But gradually, during the 18th century, the symphony developed to become the most important format for independent orchestral music. The formal proportions were dramatically expanded and the instrumentation refined and expanded, paving the way for the genre's dominant status in the Romantic period with composers such as Beethoven, Brahms and Mahler.

At this Sunday matinee we present works full of dance-like lightness, joie de vivre and musical surprises. Such as Carl Philipp Emanuel Bach's spirited Symphony No. 5, which oscillates at breakneck speed between bold acceleration and abrupt deceleration. Inspired by the magic of such late baroque - or early classical - pearls, Edvard Grieg wrote his suite "From Holberg's Time" - a homage to the Nordic baroque poet Ludvig Holberg. Sometimes this music blossoms dreamily and sweetly, sometimes it is completely soul-sore, then it is outrageously good-humored and always dressed in wonderful melodies. At this matinee our chamber orchestra plays under the direction of our deputy concertmaster Stefan Hunger, who has rendered great service to this ensemble.

Long associated with the instrumental genre, Carl Phillipp Emanuel Bach is most well-known for his concertos, sonatas, and symphonies. These works earned him a leading position in the years of the Rococo period, bridging the Baroque and Classical eras. Less well-known are his vocal compositions: his oratorios—a genre he explored only twice—are rarely, if ever, performed. For the first time in the U.S., the ASO presents Die Auferstehung und Himmelfahrt Jesu (The Resurrection and Ascension of Jesus) (1774). First performed during Easter in 1774, the work illustrates some of the unique features of the Rococo period, such as abrupt changes in mood, fluid dynamics, and highly chromatic harmonic writing that point less to the music of C.P.E. Bach’s illustrious father, and more strongly to the innately expressive, passionate flavor of the Romantic period’s music. Accompanying the oratorio in its U.S. premiere is C.P.E. Bach’s choral work Heilig ist Gott (Holy is God) (1776). The composer thought highly of the work, cheekily writing that it “may serve to ensure that I am not too quickly forgotten after my death.”

Iconic, legendary, epic — the Emperor stands alone as an unrivaled titan among concertos. With his fifth and final piano concerto, Beethoven goes beyond the traditions of his early inspirations and ultimately crafts an innovative and epic masterpiece that surpasses his predecessors’ wildest dreams. Sharing the program with Beethoven is one such early inspiration: C.P.E. Bach. Son of J.S. Bach and a master in his own right, C.P.E. Bach left a huge impact on future generations, including Beethoven. Rounding out the program is Brahms, the man perhaps most preoccupied with Beethoven’s legacy. As Beethoven’s de facto successor, Brahms revered, grappled with, and eventually transcended his idol’s legacy through his magnificent symphonies.

The fundamentally humanistic sound ideal of Johann Sebastian Bach and his son Carl Philipp Emanuel Bach meets the youthful romantic gesture of Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy: The 4th Academy Concert continues the series of Bach's Brandenburg Concertos that began in the 1st Academy Concert. Music that is so popular and admired that in 1977 it flew through space on a data disk on board the "Voyager 2" space probe - and is now back in Hamburg. Carl Philipp Emanuel Bach does not have to hide from the overwhelming legacy of his famous father, as shown by his Symphony No. 6, nicknamed "Hamburger". A piece of breathtaking tension with rich timbres and a humorous wink. The latter Bach served as a role model for another composer, namely Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy. The "Youth Symphony" by the twelve-year-old already gives an idea of ​​the composer's great visionary potential.
