Immerse yourself in a groundbreaking musical experience with the Mahler Chamber Orchestra's "AUS Leidenschaft" concert on the 9th of March, 2024, at the historic St. Johanniskirche in Hitzacker. This unique event, presented by Musikwoche Hitzacker, is set to redefine the classical music landscape with its innovative program titled "Zwischen Realitäten" (Between Realities).

The concert will feature a futuristic approach to W.A. Mozart's "Allegro" from the String Quintet in G minor, K. 516, performed by an ensemble of the MCO's finest musicians, including Christian Heubes and Mette Tjaerby Korneliusen on violin, Joel Hunter and Béatrice Muthelet on viola, and Moritz Weigert on violoncello. This performance is not just a concert but an interactive experience that bridges the gap between digital and live music presentation.

Audience members will have the opportunity to engage with the music in an unprecedented way through a Virtual Reality (VR) installation. This immersive experience allows you to walk around the musicians, sit on the violinist's lap, feel the breath of the violoncellist, and observe the viola's sound from up close. The VR installation showcases how Mozart's timeless composition and the MCO's digital innovation can converge to create a new dimension of musical expression.

This concert marks the beginning of the Mahler Chamber Orchestra's five-year tenure as the Artistic Director of Musikwoche Hitzacker, starting in 2024. The festival's 38th edition, "aus Leidenschaft" (Out of Passion), reflects the MCO's dedication to exploring the evolving sphere of classical music and fostering a deep connection with the audience.
