Gansch anders im Wiener Musikverein
Vienna, Wiener Musikverein — Großer Saal
About the Event
“Gansch anders”? His huge fan base not only knows this, but also loves it, most recently in the Plugged In series in 2022: the unusual, extraordinary, and unpredictable is completely normal for Thomas Gansch. So it comes as no surprise that the trumpeter, composer, and arranger, who juggles between classical music and jazz, brass band tradition and avant‐garde, has been instrumental in the creation and stage life of various ensembles, including Mnozil Brass, Gansch & Roses, and Wieder, Gansch & Paul, that he has co‐developed several instruments tailored to his playing style, and that he also passes as a solo entertainer in all of this. So what does “Gansch anders” mean? More of the same? Or something completely new? Curiosity and excitement are mounting—and are further fueled by conductor, pianist, and organist Wayne Marshall, who has already achieved many successes with the sound artists.
Artists
| Orchestra: | Tonkünstler‐Orchester Niederösterreich One of Europe's finest orchestras, the TON can trace its musical history back to the days of Mozart and Haydn. Dividing their time between Vienna, where they play in the Musikverein's 'Golden Hall' and Sankt‐Pölten, the orchestra has long been prized by Austrian audiences for its regular Sunday afternoon concerts, and has been the resident orchestra of the Grafenegg Festival since the latter's founding in 2007. The Tonkünstler is renowned for its adaptability — a trait reflected by the variety of world and Austrian premieres it has played, including Schönberg's immense 'Gurrelieder' and was the first Austrian orchestra to establish a division exclusively dedicated to music education.. Yukata Sado has been the orchestra's chief conductor since 2013 but will stand down in 2025, with French conductor Fabien Gabel set to take over from the 25‐26 season. |
