Experience the symphonic poem “Don Juan” by Richard Strauss, which captures the womanizer’s passionate search for love and adventure in musical brilliance. This masterpiece made the then 24-year-old composer world famous.

Guest Concert

Jugendstil-Festhalle

Strauss, Kuyper, Jaëll, Beethoven – just imagine those names on the same doorbell. A creative retirement community with a roof terrace and recording studio. All hell would break loose. The neighbors would make plans to drive the gang away – but in reality they would want to get a piece of their wildness. There was just one thing that Ludwig and Richard couldn't get out of their heads: Marie, Lisbeth – why didn't we..

Wenxin Guan, Piano – Doctoral Solo Recital

University of Arizona

Das hr-Sinfonieorchester Frankfurt ist mit seinen Kammerkonzerten auch in dieser Saison zu im Forum Kultur Heppenheim. Im traditionsreichen Kursaal bietet es dabei diesmal ein Programm mit musikalischen Unbekannten und Überraschungen. Denn Komponistinnen hatten es lange schwer, sie wurden von ihren Zeitgenossen wie von der Nachwelt lange missachtet. In diesem Konzert sind einige zu erleben, mit ihrer reichen Musik und ihrem kreativen Schaffen. Clara Schumann ist eine von ihnen und noch allgemeinhin bekannt, anders verhält es sich bei Isabella Leonarda, einer italienischen Nonne des 17. Jahrhunderts, die zu den produktivsten Komponistinnen ihrer Epoche gehörte, und bei Marie Jaëll, einer französischen Pianistin und Komponistin des 19. Jahrhunderts. Angereichert noch um Musik zweier berühmter männlicher Kollegen ist dieser Konzertnachmittag in Heppenheim sicherlich ein sehr interessanter.

Mit Herz und Seele

Forum Kultur Heppenheim e. V.

Female composers have had a hard time for a long time, and have been largely ignored by history. This year's chamber concert by the hr Symphony Orchestra in Erbach will feature some of them, with their rich music and creative work. Clara Schumann, Lili Boulanger and Rebecca Clark will be familiar, but Isabella Leonarda, an Italian nun from the 17th century who was one of the most productive composers of her era, or Marie Jaëll, a French pianist and composer from the 19th century, is not. The Frenchwoman Mélanie Bonis, whose works were mostly published under the pseudonym Mel Bonis in the 19th century, is also hardly known in this country, as is the Austrian Maria Theresia von Paradis, who was blind since childhood and was very prominent in the musical life of her time, the Viennese Classical period, as a pianist, singer and composer. In this concert you can get to know them all, as well as Emilie Mayer, a 19th-century German composer who was celebrated during her lifetime as the "female Beethoven".

For a long time, women composers had a hard time; they were mostly ignored in their time and throughout history. But women have composed with strength and talent at many times. In this concert, you can experience some of them, with their rich music and their creative work. You may still know Clara Schumann, Lili Boulanger and Rebecca Clark, but it is a different story with Isabella Leonarda, an Italian nun from the 17th century who was one of the most productive composers of her era, or Marie Jaëll, a French pianist and composer from the 19th century. The Frenchwoman Mélanie Bonis, whose works were mostly published in the 19th century under the pseudonym Mel Bonis, is also hardly known in this country, as is the Austrian pianist, singer and composer Maria Theresia von Paradis, who was blind since childhood and was also very prominent in the musical life of her time, the Viennese Classical period. In this concert you can get to know them all, as well as Emilie Mayer, a German composer of the 19th century who was also highly celebrated during her lifetime and was widely regarded as the "female Beethoven".
