This chamber concert takes our premiere of Verdi's MACBETH as a thematic opportunity to shed light on power and power relations over the centuries and to look at composing in their field of tension. Experience a journey through time from Bach's "Musical Offering" to Haydn's "Emperor Quartet" and socialist realism.

Chamber Music II: Emperor, King.... Composer

Deutsche Oper Berlin

Artistic creation in times of war: This concert features works and presentations by composers who responded to wars and battles with personal trauma or escape into fantastic parallel worlds. Listen to works by Lili Boulanger and Viktor Ullmann, among others.

Chamber Music III: In tempore belli

This season, too, an unusual and personal programme will be presented under the title "Spotlights": musicians of the orchestra will play works that are particularly close to their hearts. The programme ranges from world-famous pieces of the chamber music repertoire to real rarities that are hardly ever heard in the concert hall. Listen to favourite pieces, rarities and evergreens, including works by Bohuslav Martinů, Ernest Chausson and Rebecca Clarke.
