Balthasar Neumann Ensemble / Thomas Hengelbrock
Bach / Reger / Mendelssohn / Caldara
With the Balthasar Neumann Ensemble that he originally founded, Thomas Hengelbrock impresses audiences time and time again with polished programmes that are more than just concerts. He has found the perfect partner for these events in the celebrated actor Klaus Maria Brandauer, whom he has been working with for many years now. Tonight in the Laeiszhalle Grand Hall, Brandauer and Hengelbrock juxtapose compositions by Bach, Reger and Mendelssohn with texts by Rainer Maria Rilke, Stefan Zweig and Georg Trakl.
