»America«
Seit 2001 spielen die Jungen Symphoniker Hamburg ein Repertoire, das vor allem Lust auf Musik machen soll. Unter der Leitung von Bruno Merse geben die etwa 100 Laienmusiker, die alle zwischen 20 und 35 Jahren alt sind, Konzerte in und um Hamburg. Auf dem Programm stehen meist klassische, romantische und moderne Orchesterwerke, aber auch Film-, Rock- und Popmusik. So wie an diesem Abend in der Laeiszhalle: Musik aus George Gershwins Musical »Strike up the Band« trifft auf Antonín Dvořáks Neunte Sinfonie.
Gershwins Musical und Dvořáks Sinfonie eint der Bezug zu Amerika. »Strike up the Band« spielt in den 1930er-Jahren und behandelt auf satirische Weise die Kriegstreiberei Amerikas. Dvořák schrieb seine Neunte Sinfonie während eines dreijährigen Amerika-Aufenthaltes ─ daher rührt auch der Beiname »Aus der Neuen Welt«. Heute gilt sie als eines seiner bekanntesten Werke.
