Description
Under the baton of its conductor Emanuel Dantscher, the Orchestra ’91 presents works of German Romanticism that are linked not only by their distinctive horn sounds. The evening begins with the overture to Carl Maria von Weber’s »Freischütz«, featuring lively melodies – including those played on the horns—from the romantic stage work that stylistically established the »German Opera«.
This is followed by Richard Strauss’ Horn Concerto No. 1, in which the 18-year-old composer continues Weber’s musical tradition: heroic power and late Romantic warmth stand side by side here. The solo part is performed by Jan Polle, deputy principal horn player of the Hamburg Philharmonic State Orchestra.
After the intermission, the Orchestra ’91 will perform Anton Bruckner’s Symphony No. 9, Bruckner’s monumental and unfinished legacy. In places, four Wagner tubas play a central role here. They are additionally played by the orchestra’s horn section, so that an eight-part horn/Wagner tuba section provides particularly romantic sounds. In its unfinished form, the symphony shows the path from late Romanticism to modernism, clearly audible in the harmonies that point to the 20th century.
