As appealing as a solo concerto is, isn't a double concerto twice as interesting? Two soloists who pass the ball to each other, who compete, outdo each other, who come together for a pas de deux? This evening, two are simply twice as good: the soloists of the Frankfurt Radio Symphony Orchestra. Three concertos for two solo instruments are on the programme, composed by the baroque trio of Bach, Telemann and Vivaldi. Of his 50 or so concertos for two instruments, Vivaldi only composed one for two trumpets, a solitaire in the extensive catalogue of works by the virtuoso Venetian. Bach's double concerto BWV 1043 was also a one-off piece - anyone who writes for two writes exclusively. The evening will be led by the British harpsichordist and conductor Jonathan Cohen, who has made a name for himself not only with his own ensemble Arcangelo. He has toured with the Academy of Ancient Music as well as with William Christie's ensemble Les Arts Florissants, which has now appointed him Associate Conductor. Franz Schubert's Mozart-like 5th Symphony, probably the most mature of his early symphonic works, will be the delightful finale of this Baroque+ program.

Bach is the beginning and the end of all music, Max Reger once said. And this truth proves itself again and again - also in this chamber concert by the hr-Sinfonieorchester as part of the Wettenberg Winter Concerts. It is filled with the inexhaustible cosmos of Bach's "Musical Offering", his duo sonatas and concertos. You simply cannot miss it. The musicians of the hr-Sinfonieorchester Frankfurt, with guest harpsichordist Flóra Fábri, also present a concerto for the rare oboe d'amore and the 5th of the famous "Brandenburg Concertos".

Every season, the chamber concerts of the hr Symphony Orchestra stop off at the Lauterbach Hohhaus Concerts - this time with a musical program that inspires the imagination. Robert Schumann's famous "fairy tales" are of course not to be missed. But the "Phantasy Quartet" by the British composer Benjamin Britten, the early piano quartet movement by the late romantic Gustav Mahler and chamber music miniatures by August Klughardt and Paul Juon also create a fairytale atmosphere.

The Frankfurt Radio Symphony Orchestra is once again making a stop at the Wettenberg Winter Concerts with its chamber concerts. This time with two masterful string quintets. Beethoven's grew out of a trio in his later years, Bruch's was a late work and long lost - both quintets have a special maturity, musical essence from many years. They immediately cast a spell over you, just like the mastery of Haydn's quartet.

Beethoven's grew out of a trio in his later years, Bruch's was a late work and long lost - both quintets have a special maturity, musical essence from many years. They immediately captivate you, just like the mastery of Haydn's quartet. Beethoven's model for his string quintet was a bold youthful work with an impetuous character, which he transformed as an established master, while Bruch, at the age of eighty, once again formulated his traditional credo in his quintet. Looking back, he also quotes himself - as a reminiscence and self-assurance of his own past.

Johann Sebastian Bach | Konzert für Oboe d'amore A-Dur BWV 1055 / Sonate Nr. 2 A-Dur für Violine und obligates Cembalo BWV 1015 / Matthäus-Passion – Zwei Arien in instrumentaler Bearbeitung / Brandenburgisches Konzert Nr. 5 BWV 1050

Schloßstraße 1

Bach is the beginning and the end of all music. This truth proves itself again and again - even in this chamber fibrillation in an industrial atmosphere. The range extends from the unfathomable dimensions of his "Musical Offering" to virtuoso concert music for the rare oboe d'amore and the intimate sphere of his duo sonatas, to instrumentally arranged arias from the "St. Matthew Passion" and the magnificent court music of the 5th Brandenburg Concerto. The inexhaustible cosmos of Bach's music will fill the former factory hall of the Naxos Union and open up space and senses for a special experience.
