It is and remains a musical mystery: Schubert’s String Trio D 471, a fascinating fragment of a work which, although it remained unfinished, provides a deep insight into the composer’s melodic inventiveness and harmonic sensibility. Only the first movement is complete. The Andante sostenuto, which has only survived in fragmentary form and is rarely heard, although only 39 bars long, gives an idea of the further musical ideas Franz Schubert harboured for this trio. In the middle of the programme are two works for violin and violoncello that were written around 100 years apart: Maurice Ravel’s colourful sonata »A la mémoire de Claude Debussy« and the world premiere of a new work by David Philip Hefti, which was written especially for Hellen Weiß and Gabriel Schwabe.

Full of Passion

Trinity Church Kücknitz - Evangelical Lutheran Parish of Kücknitz

Anno Schreier's aim when composing his "Sinfonia amorosa e giocosa" was to capture the "allegedly light, relaxed tone of Mozart's early symphonies," and perhaps also their humor. Tchaikovsky also attempted to awaken the spirit of a bygone era in his Variations on a Rococo Theme, whose soloist will be the award-winning cellist Gabriel Schwabe. Beethoven's Symphony No. 3, which reflects his initial fascination with the rebellious Napoleon, exudes a revolutionary spirit.

7th Symphony Concert

Parkhotel Quellenhof Aachen - Premiumhotel Aachen

Mozart's "Jupiter Symphony" marks a conclusion and at the same time a departure into new worlds. With it, Mozart crowns and ends his work in the field of the symphony in the highest perfection. At the same time, he presents the first monumental work in the line of tradition that will determine symphonic music in the 19th century. After all, this symphony is one of those works that established Mozart's immortal fame early on. One of his most ardent admirers was Tchaikovsky. He said that the music of this "sunny genius" moved him to tears.
