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.

Stadthalle Homberg

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.

Kammermusik eines bis heute verkannten Ungarn. Anders als Bartók und Kodály blieb Dohnányi zeitlebens der Romantik verbunden. Sein klangvolles Klavierquintett und sein Sextett bestechen durch ihre Erfindungskraft. Sie sind eine Entdeckung, so wie das apart besetzte Trio des deutschen Romantikers Reinecke. Dohnanyi war Pianist, Dirigent und Komponist und wurde in jungen Jahren als gefeierter Solist mit Franz Liszt verglichen. Für Klavierkammermusik hatte er daher eine besonders glückliche Hand, wie man in diesem Konzert erleben kann. Als Komponist sah sich Dohnanyi ganz in der Brahms-Nachfolge. Sein spätes Sextett indes weist über die Brahms-Welt hinaus und erfreut sich zugleich an dem weiten Stilpanorama der 1930er Jahre
