3rd Chamber Concerto / Müllerin | Blau

Rostock Art Gallery

In the 3rd Academy Concert, two world premieres meet a familiar face: Stefan Schäfer, solo double bassist of the Philharmonic State Orchestra, passionate chamber musician and composer, starts off. His "Reflections on a Good Morrow" is a commissioned work by the Philharmonic State Orchestra. The new is followed by the familiar: Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart and his "Nachtmusique". A demanding work with which Mozart - once again - exceeded the expectations of his time and composed chamber music with an almost symphonic gesture. Fabian Otten shows how much one's own music-making and composing benefit from each other, and can even be mutually dependent. The first percussionist and timpanist of the Philharmonic State Orchestra has been studying the Master's program in composition at the HfMT Hamburg since 2022 and is composing a commissioned work for string quintet and percussion for this concert. The musical final word again belongs to Mozart, whose string quintets were considered by Franz Schubert to be "beneficial departures from a brighter, better life" and by modern musicology to be "his greatest achievement in chamber music" (Charles Rosen). His String Quintet in G minor represents Mozart's very own musical language and the purity and beauty of the artistic form.
