4. Sinfoniekonzert

In the organizer's words:

4th symphony concert

"Aniri" is a term from the Korean Pansori theater. It involves a man or woman reciting a long narrative. The solo cello in Unsuk Chin's epochal Cello Concerto (2006 / 2013) performs a dramatic song with the same intensity. Korean composer Unsuk Chin, one of the most important musical voices of our time, wrote a work of extremes, between (near) silence and explosive outbursts. The fate of life is just as present in them as the bleak soundscapes after a global catastrophe. The narrating cello bravely refuses to let fate get it down and sings its soul out unimpressed. But the beauty in Unsuk Chin's music is always endangered.
"Complete surrender to fate, grumbling, doubts, complaints, reproaches." This is what the Russian composer Pyotr I. Tchaikovsky wrote about the beginning of his 5th Symphony. The life and work of the creator of musical blockbusters such as Swan Lake and The Nutcracker was permeated by endless suffering and self-doubt. Here, in his legendary "Symphony of Fate", this is brought to life - but not without forgetting the consolation.
