Friederike Scheunchen

Göttinger Symphonieorchester

A concert like a tender confession. It begins with a lament and ends with a departure. In between, sound spaces unfold that offer protection while daring to be open. Samuel Barber's "Adagio for Strings" resonates with painful beauty. Lisa Streich composed "Mantel" as a piece about coverings: about what they conceal and what shines through them. A fragile texture emerges that protects and conceals. But what lies beneath? In Caroline Shaw's "Entr'acte," we hear more than a harmless interlude: full of lightness and wit, it surprises with unexpected twists. And then: spring. Schumann's First Symphony allows hope to blossom with every note. Those who allow themselves to be carried by Schumann's momentum sense that even departure requires vulnerability. And how radically vibrant a new beginning can sound!
