    Concerto for Violoncello and Orchestra in E minor, Opus 85

    In June of 1919 the publisher of Edward Elgar’s works received a letter from a remote corner of Sussex, to which the 62-year old composer had retired to recover from a tonsillectomy. In this letter, Elgar wrote: “I am terribly busy and have almost…

    Symphony No. 7 in B minor, D. 759 »Unfinished«

    "My products are present in a knowledge of music and in my pain…” This entry in Schubert’s diary in March of 1824 applies especially to the character of his Seventh Symphony. The typically romantic suffering from this world, the sense of inadequacy…

    Tristan und Isolde: Prelude and »Isoldes Liebestod« (Love-Death) from »Tristan und Isolde«

Leider muss Lisa Batiashvili ihre Mitwirkung für das heute geplante Konzert der Münchner Philharmoniker in der Philharmonie Luxembourg krankheitsbedingt absagen. Wir sind überaus dankbar, dass Gautier Capuçon kurzfristig einspringen kann. Gemeinsam mit ihm und Lahav Shani wird in der ersten Konzerthälfte das Cellokonzert von Edward Elgar aufgeführt werden. Die zweite Konzerthälfte bleibt unverändert.
