演出简介

Anton Bruckner’s Symphony No. 9 is the focus of a concert day that is dedicated to the Upper Austrian Romantic composer.

Look forward to captivating interpretations by Philippe Herreweghe, a pioneer in early music, and his Orchestre des Champs-Elysées. The great «Te Deum» will be struck up by a top-class soloist ensemble as well as singers of the Collegium Vocale Gent and the Accademia Chigiana Siena. The Prelude will feature Bruckner’s 7th Symphony in a chamber music version.

There’s a special feeling in the air when you step through the gates of Grafenegg to plunge into the open atmosphere of this Music Festival. Here is a fascinating combination of past and future, tangible in the contrast between the old castle and the modern open-air stage, Wolkenturm. On mild summer evenings, performances are in the open; in poor weather, the Auditorium opens its doors.

Orchestre des Champs-Elysées & Herreweghe: Music Festival Grafenegg 出演艺术家及团体

Accademia Chigiana Siena

, Choir

Orchestre des Champs-Élysées

, 乐团
In 1991 Philippe Herreweghe founded the Orchestre des Champs-Élysées. He named it after the theatre to which it was initially affiliated. Its aim: to perform classical and romantic works on the instruments used when the pieces were written. In order to achieve a convincing sound, Herreweghe demands original instruments or, if necessary, has them reconstructed, studying the makeup and placements of period orchestras. After starting with Haydn and Mozart, he has now advanced with his work to Gustav Mahler and Anton Bruckner.

Collegium Vocale Gent

, Choir
Collegium Vocale Gent was founded in 1970 on the initiative of Philippe Herreweghe.

It was one of the first ensembles to use the then-new ideas about baroque practice in vocal music performances. Musicians such as Gustav Leonhardt, Ton Koopman and Nikolaus Harnoncourt immediately took an interest in the Flemish ensemble’s fresh, new approach, which led to intensive collaboration.

In the mid-1980s the ensemble acquired international fame and was invited to all the major concert halls and music festivals of Europe, Israel, the United States, Russian, South America, Japan, Hong Kong and Australia.
