Zyklus Resonanzen
Pythagoras of Samos in the 6th century BC already assumed that the
movements of the planets created a harmony of the spheres that was
inaudible to humans. The »Resonances« 2024 now envelop the main actors
of our solar system in a unique atmosphere of music and history,
bringing even the most inhospitable planet to sonorous life. On eight
evenings, you will experience the wonderful harmonies of higher spheres
thanks to renowned ensembles and soloists of historical performance
practice.
Two planets - Venus and Mercury - will be treated on
one day, January 21, 2024. The nimble Mercury, god of travelers, will
exceptionally be considered as part of a resonance »prelude« on the
podium of the Great Hall: A unique opportunity for the young British
ensemble Apollo's Cabinet to wow the audience with a semi-staged program
on Mercury right off the bat - exactly where Les Talens Lyriques will
present the first complete performance of a tragédie en musique by Lully
at the Wiener Konzerthaus the evening before.
