Our honorary conductor Iván Fischer is a guarantee for unusual programmes. This time, he and the Konzerthausorchester will perform works by four composers who were ostracised and persecuted by the National Socialists and whose works shaped the avant-garde of the interwar period. Paul Hindemith, Kurt Weill and Hanns Eisler found their way to the United States via detours, but Erwin Schulhoff was interned in Prague, deported and died of tuberculosis in a camp in Bavaria.

You’ll also have the opportunity to ask Iván Fischer questions. In the end, you will definitely be able to say: I was right in the thick of things, not just on the sidelines.

He never gave up on musical beauty. In every situation, Sergei Prokofiev stuck to the sound that conquers the heart and soul. The Concertgebouworkest and its guest conductor of honor, Iván Fischer, let three of his works sparkle fantastically.

Leonard Bernstein combined classical music, jazz, show music and folk music from various communities to create distinctive musicals that were successful around the globe. George Gershwin also combines classical concert and jazz, and his music is at home on Broadway and in Carnegie Hall. Pianist Kirill Gerstein performs Gershwin's world hit „Rhapsody in Blue“ as a soloist with the Konzerthausorchester under Iván Fischer.
