Рождественский концерт с Киевским симфоническим оркестром | Произведения Баха, Хампердинка и других

A contemplative Christmas concert far from home. The Kyiv Symphony Orchestra, conducted by Jascha von der Goltz, performs works by Humperdinck, Bach, Webern, Silvestrov, Stankovych and Lysenko as well as two Christmas classics, “Silent Night” and “Shchedryk” (Carol of the Bells). The soloists are the Ukrainian star violinists Valeriy Sokolov and Dmytro Udovychenko. The concert entitled “The Light That Carries People” took place on November 30, 2024, in the chamber music hall of Deutschlandfunk in Cologne. 00:00 Intro 00:06 Engelbert Humperdinck: Overture from the opera „Hansel and Gretel“ 07:40 Johann Sebastian Bach: Concerto for Two Violins in D minor, BWV 1043 23:38 Valentyn Silvestrov: Silent Music for String Orchestra 36:07 Johann Sebastian Bach/Anton Webern: Ricercar a 6 44:15 Yevhen Stankovych: Ave Mariia 1:08:52 Franz Xaver Gruber: Silent Night (arr.

Because of the war in their homeland, the musicians have deliberately decided against a light-hearted entertainment program and have instead chosen more solemn German and Ukrainian works to accompany the listeners on their search for light and peace. The program begins with the overture to “Hansel and Gretel” by Engelbert Humperdinck (1854-1921). The fairy-tale opera is a classic of the late Romantic period and is often performed in Germany during the Advent season. The opera is about childhood, hope and the victory of good over evil. That’s followed by a violin concerto by Johann Sebastian Bach (1685-1750). The Concerto for Two Violins in D minor, BWV 1043 will be performed by Ukrainian violinists Valeriy Sokolov and Dmytro Udovychenko. Both play on violins from the workshop of the famous Italian master violin maker Antonio Stradivari. Udovychenko won first prize at this year's prestigious Queen Elisabeth Competition in Brussels. The three-part piece “Silent Music” was written by Valentyn Silvestrov (*1937), Ukraine's most famous contemporary composer. The concerto for string orchestra focuses on the search for light and redemption. The string instruments create a sound structure of calm and contemplation. The effect is hypnotic and meditative. The “Ricercar a 6” refers to the six-part “Ricercar” from Johann Sebastian Bach's collection “The Musical Offering” (BWV 1079). Bach probably wrote the piece for harpsichord in 1747. During his lifetime, the term “ricercar” was used to describe preliminary forms of the fugue. In 1935, Anton Webern (1883-1945) created an orchestral version of Bach's “Ricercar”. The cleverly composed piece in minor keys creates a reflective atmosphere but then ends solemnly. In his symphonic poem “Ave Mariia,” the contemporary Ukrainian composer Yevhen Stankovych (*1942) reflects on faith, religion and the inner strength that sustains people. At the end of the work, gentle major tones and church bells are heard. The melody of the famous Christmas carol “Silent Night” is also quoted. The Kyiv Symphony Orchestra has a long-standing relationship with the composer, a professor at the Kyiv Academy of Music. The concert will conclude with three well-known Christmas pieces, all of which are about light and hope: the traditional German Christmas carol “Silent Night,” the famous Ukrainian Christmas carol “Shchedryk,” known in the English-speaking world as “Carol of the Bells,” and “Prayer for Ukraine” by Mykola Lysenko (1842-1912). These pieces were rearranged and reinterpreted in a surprising way by the orchestra's principal clarinetist, Dmytro Pashynsky. At the end of “Prayer for Ukraine,” he has bells ring out to give hope for a better future during dark times. Founded in 1979, the Kyiv Symphony Orchestra (KSO) has emerged as one of the leading cultural forces in Ukraine. Renowned for its dedication to preserving and promoting Ukrainian musical heritage, the KSO also plays a vital role in representing Ukrainian culture on the international stage. The repertoire of KSO spans from the 16th century to the younger generation of today's composers. In 2022, KSO was awarded the prestigious Musical Contest Prize of the Fondation Prince Pierre of Monaco in recognition for the quality of their interpretations of contemporary music. The Kyiv Symphony Orchestra came under the official patronage of the Berliner Philharmoniker in 2023. Since August 2024, the Kyiv Symphony Orchestra has been in residence in Monheim am Rhein, Germany, as part of the Monheimer Kulturwerke GmbH. © 2024 Deutsche Welle Subscribe to DW Classical Music:    / dwclassicalmusic   #christmasmusic #christmasconcert #jsbach
