Hardly any other composer of the 20th century remained as committed to the sound language of late Romanticism in his work as Sergei Rachmaninoff. With this approach, he created works that still speak to us today with their emotional density, melodic richness and tangible drama. The crystallization point of his work is the series of his piano concertos and symphonies. When Gabriel Feltz puts these very works on the program in his last three concerts as General Music Director on a single day, it is possible to follow Rachmaninoff's creative development in concentrated form. This reveals the enormous range of expressive worlds between euphoria, pathos, thoughtfulness, sensitivity and deep dejection in which Rachmaninoff moved in his music.

10th Philharmonic Concert: Rachmaninoff total

Konzerthaus Dortmund

It is a dear friend of the orchestra who steps up to the conductor's podium on an evening where none other than Beethoven and Sibelius have the leading roles. At the keys sits one of the most interesting piano virtuosos of our time, Swiss Beatrice Berrut.

The pianist Beatrice Berrut, together with her collaborators Benjamin Herzl, Benedict Mitterbauer, and Matthias Bartolomey, traces the footsteps of Johannes Brahms and his lifelong friend Clara Schumann. "This is yet another who seems to have been sent by God himself!" she noted in her diary when she and her husband Robert first met the young Brahms. The following year, he wrote his first piano trio, which he significantly revised in 1889. His Piano Quartet in G minor, premiered in 1861 with Clara Schumann at the piano, was an immediate success.
