With this concert, GMD Jörg-Peter Weigle bids farewell as chief conductor and artistic director of the Brandenburg State Orchestra in Frankfurt. In the seven years at the helm of Brandenburg's only A-class orchestra, large, artistically outstanding choral-symphonic performances were his special trademark. To conclude this season and his time as General Music Director in Frankfurt (Oder), he will once again bring great romantic choral symphonies to the stage with Mendelssohn's symphony cantata "Lobgesang". This work was commissioned on the occasion of the four hundredth anniversary with which the book city of Leipzig wanted to celebrate Gutenberg's invention of the printing press with movable type.
