Much has been heard and learned about Johann Strauss II this year. This collaborative concert, in the year of his 200th birthday, focuses on the more and less familiar music of the celebrated composer and his contemporaries. Father and son's works will be interwoven with music by the child prodigy Constanze Geiger, the first love songs by Olga Smirnitskaya and Augusta Holmès. Die Fledermaus and Tales from the Vienna Woods are also featured, as are the virtuoso violinists and other works by Fritz Kreisler. Selected students will perform as soloists.

concert hall at night: Inaugural concert by Fedor Rudin

Wiener Konzerthaus

Experience the very best of the Ravel Festival before you leave for the weekend!

In Daphnis and Chloë, Ravel paints a gigantic musical painting of the Greece of his dreams. The life-affirming love is celebrated both in gentle pastel colors and a sumptuous back channel.

The art of desire

Musikhuset Aarhus

The most beautiful adventure, a temperamental gift for the very best violin soloists – and impressionism in all the pastel colors of the rainbow: Ravel is a composer who alone can fill a varied and fantastic concert program.

Ma mère l'Oye is an adventurous work – both literally and figuratively. Ravel has set the folk tales in tones so gently sumptuous that it is impossible not to surrender.

Dream images

Aarhus Symphony Orchestra, in collaboration with Randers Chamber Orchestra, marks the 150th anniversary of the birth of the French Maurice Ravel. Ravel's magical sound world is fully expressed in the three works on the program. From the fairy tale in Ma mere l'Oye to the fiery and colorful temperament in Tzigane - where Fedor Rudin is the violin soloist - to the luminous sunrise and the fine love dances in Daphnis and Chloé.

Ravel Festival - Dream Images

Aarhus Music Hall

Experience Ravel's music in the most intense format: In chamber music by Ravel and his contemporary Debussy, you can get up close to the soloists of the Ravel Festival - and to the music.

Ravel's sonata for violin and cello is a small wonder of a dance between the two instruments. Endlessly fascinating, they weave in and out of each other in equal parts impetuousness, urge to explore and devotion.
