More to Come – Camerata at Forty

Laeiszhalle Hamburg

Romantic depths, visions and novel, »unheard-of« sounds in perfect form: Schubert can be considered one of the most innovative composers in music history. This is particularly evident in the selection of works performed in this concert, all of which date from Schubert’s mature period.

»Schubertiade«

Elbphilharmonie Hamburg

Shostakovich’s Eighth String Quartet in C minor is one of the composers most personal works. There are striking allusions to Wagner’s »Götterdämmerung« and Tchaikovsky’s confessional symphony »Pathétique«. But Shostakovich also immortalised himself, with themes from earlier works as well as the musical code D-Es-C-H. The piece was composed in 1960 during a visit to Dresden, which was destroyed in 1945.
