"An orchestra, despite all the possibilities of programming, defines itself by its great core repertoire. It's very important to cultivate that, to work on it, to keep it alive all the time," said Joana Mallwitz in the season magazine, naming Beethoven, Brahms and Mahler in particular, to whom she would like to pay special attention with the Konzerthausorchester. Works by these three great composers are now being assembled by our chief conductor for a gala concert celebrating the 125th anniversary of Deutsche Grammophon, with whom she signed an exclusive contract this summer. We wish the "Glückliche Fahrt" from Beethoven's op. 112 to the "Yellow Label" for the next 125 years!
