This year we're launching a new festival called KONTRAST, which will explore some of the contradictions we encounter in music. KONTRAST's theme this autumn is Light and Darkness.

EPSG:4326

KONTRAST - Opening concert

The Royal Danish Academy of Music

Arvid Engegård conducts symphonies by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart and Robert Schumann, each of which reshaped the symphonic genre with deeper, darker undertones: Mozart’s Symphony No. 40 and Schumann’s Symphony No. 4. Between the symphonies, Arne Nordheim’s reflective memorial piece Nachruf for strings will be performed.
