Two masterpieces that stand out from their time—the expression of two composers who used conventions as a springboard into the unknown, thus challenging contemporary audiences: Ludwig van Beethoven's String Quartet in E minor, Op. 59, No. 2 from the Razumovsky Trilogy, allows classical form to vibrate under the pressure of inner necessity: the ominously concentrated unison at the beginning, harmonic shifts with eruptive potential, a movement dramaturgy of symphonic breath, a sonically contemplative Molto Adagio with a "cosmic" perspective—they mark nothing less than a renegotiation of the concept of genre on the threshold of Romanticism.

Chamber Concert No. 2

Town Hall Hall

"Die Wilde Jagd" is the music project of producer and songwriter Sebastian Lee Philipp. With minimalist, dark intensity, the music of "Die Wilde Jagd" weaves a dense and atmospheric web of drama, romance, ecstasy, and melancholy. "Die Wilde Jagd" has released five studio albums and several EPs, followed by numerous international tours and concerts. Following the remarkable success of their eponymous debut album in 2015, "Die Wilde Jagd" achieved their breakthrough with the release of "Uhrwald Orange" in 2018. 

The Wild Hunt – Live with Jena Philharmonic Quartet

Kassablanca Gleis1

Rodolfo Halffter's "Tres Epitafios," premiered in 1954, opens the concert evening with three finely crafted choral movements about Don Quixote, Sancho Panza, and Dulcinea. The short "epistolary" is a musical eulogy—not sad, but ironically loving. Halffter portrays Miguel de Cervantes Saavedra's literary figures as memory images from a bygone age of the imagination. Richard Strauss also dedicated his 1897 tone poem "Don Quixote" to the "knight of the melancholy countenance"—albeit in a large orchestral format. In the performance, the solo parts are sung by Henriette Lätsch, principal cellist, and Christian Götz, principal viola of the Jena Philharmonic. Between the two works, Beethoven's Symphony No. 4 in B-flat major from 1806 conveys a cheerful, transparent soundscape with a playful character. /JN
