The evening's program is framed by two works for the ensemble of piano, viola and clarinet, an ensemble for which Mozart was the first to write a work back in 1786, which was to have a significant impact on the spread of the clarinet as a classical instrument. It was a fairly new instrument in Mozart's time, but quickly found its place as a fully integrated and widely used instrument in both orchestral and chamber music.

Bach's music was a great inspiration for Johannes Brahms, who dedicated his choral work "Warum ist das Licht gegeben dem Müseligen" from 1877 to the great Bach scholar Philipp Spitta. The entire work revolves around the big question: "Why": If God is almighty and merciful, why is there all this suffering in the world? The motet ends with a hymn text based on Simeon's Praise by Luther. Here the struggle is over, and the vulnerable have found rest and comfort in the belief that death is not the last word.

The program begins with Mozart's Quartet No. 15, from the collection of 6 quartets opus 10, dedicated to his friend and mentor, Joseph Haydn. While Haydn is often referred to as the father of the string quartet, Mozart can be seen as the one who, under the influence of Haydn's quartets, developed the genre towards Beethoven's groundbreaking string quartets in particular.

About the program  Dmitri Shostakovich is always an exciting acquaintance, which has taken on a new twist here, as his five preludes for piano from 1919-21 are performed at this concert in an arrangement for piano and cello by composer Lera Auerbach (born 1973).

There are not many singers who have not sung choral music by Brahms. He was an extremely prolific composer of choral music and his choral music is of the highest quality.

About the program It will be another beautiful evening of lied music in the Mogens Dahl Concert Hall when the young German star, mezzo-soprano Anna Lucia Richter, visits Islands Brygge to introduce the autumn program. The piano-accompanied solo song is almost the epitome of romantic chamber music, which comes into its own in the bright, intimate setting of the Concert Hall.

Here the contrasts in atmosphere and soundscape are obvious: In the bright and sunny Concert Hall we will hear heavenly tones by Schubert. In GARAGE we will turn off the lights and let ourselves be enveloped by 20th century music with edge and nerve.

Beethoven's piano sonatas are one of the absolute monuments, not only in piano literature, but in classical music as a whole. At the concert in Mogens Dahl Concert Hall, Fujita performs Beethoven's first piano sonata, where he still stands on the shoulders of Haydn and Mozart, but heralds what is to come.
