Springtime feelings of a young, deceased Frenchwoman, full of magical radiance; an early Beethoven defying his fate with musical optimism; and hr solo cellist Peter-Philipp Staemmler with a modern cello concerto brimming with intense colors – all this in a compact Quick & Classy format. The young Bulgarian conductor Delyana Lazarova will not only bring Lili Boulanger's moving orchestral music to life in its forward-looking arrangement, but also the nocturnal world of the French sound magician Henri Dutilleux, oscillating between reality and dream. Not to mention Beethoven's virtuosity, characterized by sharp dynamic and harmonic contrasts, in which the deep despair over his increasing deafness and isolation is completely imperceptible.

The Frankfurt Radio Symphony Orchestra (hr-Sinfonieorchester Frankfurt) will perform at the Gießen City Theatre this time under the direction of conductor Delyana Lazarova, with hr solo cellist Peter-Philipp Staemmler, and with another attractive and diverse program. The young Bulgarian-born Lazarova will not only bring to life the moving orchestral music of Lili Boulanger, but also the nocturnal world, oscillating between reality and dream, in the Cello Concerto by the French sound magician Henri Dutilleux. She will also vividly portray the dynamic and harmonic contrasts of Beethoven's Second Symphony, in which his despair over his increasing deafness and isolation is completely undetectable.

Concerts at the Gießen City Theatre

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.
