This season, works for horn can be enjoyed in the chamber concert of the hr Symphony Orchestra in Friedberg - all about hr solo horn player Marc Gruber in a recently modified program. He will be able to be heard in a duo with Beethoven and Glazunov and, as planned, in a sonorous and soulful trio with Brahms. Instead of the planned horn concerto by Ethel Smyth and the "Music with Horn" by Vagn Holmboe, Grace Kyung Eun Lee will also present three distinctive duos for violin and piano in the first part of the concert.

Music with Horn

Theater Altes Hallenbad

A creative frenzy usually produces something extraordinary. Whether it's Webern's late romantic-early piano quintet, Weinberg's rich string quartet treasure or Schumann's groundbreaking, enthusiastic piano quintet - all three works in this program were created in a frenzy and will captivate and enchant you. Anton Webern's piano quintet still exudes the romantic air of Brahms in his pursuit of the new, Mieczysław Weinberg's diverse, fascinating music is only just being discovered, while Schumann's piano quintet has always been considered a chamber music highlight.

This season, the Frankfurt Radio Symphony Orchestra is enriching the concerts in the town hall in Homberg (Efze) with a chamber concert of a special class. A creative frenzy usually gives birth to something extraordinary. Whether it is Webern's late romantic-early piano quintet, Weinberg's rich string quartet treasure or Schumann's groundbreaking, enthusiastic piano quintet - all three works in this program were created in a frenzy and will captivate and enchant you. Anton Webern's piano quintet still exudes the romantic air of Brahms in his pursuit of the new, Mieczysław Weinberg's diverse, fascinating music is only just being discovered, while Schumann's piano quintet has always been considered a chamber music highlight.

Das hr-Sinfonieorchester Frankfurt ist mit seinen Kammerkonzerten auch in dieser Saison zu im Forum Kultur Heppenheim. Im traditionsreichen Kursaal bietet es dabei diesmal ein Programm mit musikalischen Unbekannten und Überraschungen. Denn Komponistinnen hatten es lange schwer, sie wurden von ihren Zeitgenossen wie von der Nachwelt lange missachtet. In diesem Konzert sind einige zu erleben, mit ihrer reichen Musik und ihrem kreativen Schaffen. Clara Schumann ist eine von ihnen und noch allgemeinhin bekannt, anders verhält es sich bei Isabella Leonarda, einer italienischen Nonne des 17. Jahrhunderts, die zu den produktivsten Komponistinnen ihrer Epoche gehörte, und bei Marie Jaëll, einer französischen Pianistin und Komponistin des 19. Jahrhunderts. Angereichert noch um Musik zweier berühmter männlicher Kollegen ist dieser Konzertnachmittag in Heppenheim sicherlich ein sehr interessanter.

Mit Herz und Seele

Forum Kultur Heppenheim e. V.

Female composers have had a hard time for a long time, and have been largely ignored by history. This year's chamber concert by the hr Symphony Orchestra in Erbach will feature some of them, with their rich music and creative work. Clara Schumann, Lili Boulanger and Rebecca Clark will be familiar, but Isabella Leonarda, an Italian nun from the 17th century who was one of the most productive composers of her era, or Marie Jaëll, a French pianist and composer from the 19th century, is not. The Frenchwoman Mélanie Bonis, whose works were mostly published under the pseudonym Mel Bonis in the 19th century, is also hardly known in this country, as is the Austrian Maria Theresia von Paradis, who was blind since childhood and was very prominent in the musical life of her time, the Viennese Classical period, as a pianist, singer and composer. In this concert you can get to know them all, as well as Emilie Mayer, a 19th-century German composer who was celebrated during her lifetime as the "female Beethoven".

Women Power

Werner-Borchers-Halle

For a long time, women composers had a hard time; they were mostly ignored in their time and throughout history. But women have composed with strength and talent at many times. In this concert, you can experience some of them, with their rich music and their creative work. You may still know Clara Schumann, Lili Boulanger and Rebecca Clark, but it is a different story with Isabella Leonarda, an Italian nun from the 17th century who was one of the most productive composers of her era, or Marie Jaëll, a French pianist and composer from the 19th century. The Frenchwoman Mélanie Bonis, whose works were mostly published in the 19th century under the pseudonym Mel Bonis, is also hardly known in this country, as is the Austrian pianist, singer and composer Maria Theresia von Paradis, who was blind since childhood and was also very prominent in the musical life of her time, the Viennese Classical period. In this concert you can get to know them all, as well as Emilie Mayer, a German composer of the 19th century who was also highly celebrated during her lifetime and was widely regarded as the "female Beethoven".

Musik in Gedanken an die Schrecken des Krieges mit Musiker*innen des hr-Sinfonieorchesters aus fünf Ländern, deren Großväter im Zweiten Weltkrieg als Feinde gegenüberstanden und sich bekämpften – ein Konzert der Rückschau wie Vergegenwärtigung und Hoffnung! Mit seinem 8. Streichquartett hat der Russe Dmitrij Schostakowitsch 1960 den Opfern des Faschismus und des Krieges ein bewegendes musikalisches Denkmal gesetzt. Der Amerikaner Aaron Copland war während des Zweiten Weltkriegs vom Tod eines befreundeten Leutnants betroffen und er verarbeitete dies 1943 in seiner einzigen Violinsonate. In »Tenebrae« greift der rumänisch-israelische Komponist Osvaldo Golijov auf seine eigenen Erfahrungen zurück und stellt die Gewalt des Krieges neben die Ruhe eines Planetariums und die Hoffnung auf Frieden. Dazwischen zwei zeitgenössische Werke der Amerikanerin Jessie Montgomery und der Japanerin Michiru Oshimas, die die Gedanken des Friedens wie des Erinnerns aufgreifen und die Sinne öffnen.
