© Nagy Attila Mozart: Requiem
Baden‐Baden, Festspielhaus Baden‐Baden
About the Event
Mozart’s most famous choral work meets a piece by Beethoven that is surprisingly rarely performed: the “Choral Fantasy.” A unique blend of choral cantata, piano concerto, and piano fantasy—and to top it off, an early hint of “Joy, O Divine Spark.” This melody usually elicits an involuntary smile from the audience. What a lovely reunion! No wonder the work is often called Beethoven’s “Little Ninth.”

Artists
| Orchestra, Piano: | Mahler Chamber Orchestra The Mahler Chamber Orchestra was founded in 1997 on the initiative of Claudio Abbado and a group of musicians from the Gustav Mahler Youth Orchestra who wished to continue to play together even after reaching the youth orchestra's age limit. The combined principles of artistic curiosity and the broadest possible spectrum of repertoire, both at the highest possible musical level, guided the ambitious ensemble in its founding and continue to shape its work today. The ensemble’s repertoire reaches from baroque to contemporary and includes everything from chamber music to symphonic programming, from operatic standards to world premieres. |
