Luigi Nono (1924–1990): "Hay que caminar" Soñando für 2 Violinen

An astonishing number of festival friends set out at dawn in 2022 to experience a very special kind of open-air concert on the banks of the Elbe. The pianist Lilit Grigoryan played works by Frederic Mompou with such rapt intensity that the sun seemed to respond by rising. Two years later and together with his wife, violinist Catherina Lendle, Artistic Director Oliver Wille invokes this highly popular spirit once again. The musical subject is a masterpiece of the late 20th century. The last composition completed by Luigi Nono – who would have celebrated his 100th birthday this year – reflects on the "dreamily" made choice of a previously undetermined path… discovered by him as an inscription on the wall of a monastery in Spain.

The Quarteto Indaco was originally formed in the Tuscan town of Fiesole and is considered one of the most interesting Italian ensembles of the day. In 2023, it won the First Prize at the Chamber Music Competition in Osaka and now presents itself in our debut series with Schubert's late string quartet, which it relates to and intersperses with other works: pieces from the Renaissance and Italian works by the late Romantic composer Giuseppe Martucci and by the ensemble's cellist, Cosimo Carovani.

Johannes Brahms (1833–1897): Streichquartett a-Moll Op. 51,2

Tickets online

A challenging work with densely crafted motifs: Arnold Schoenberg referred to Brahms as a progressive, modern composer because of his two String Quintets, Op. 51. The artistry embedded in this work will be simply (wonderfully) demonstrated by Oliver Wille together with the young AST Quartet.

Franz Schubert (17971828): Klaviersonate G-Dur D 894, Klaviersonate c-Moll D 958 und Klaviersonate A-Dur D 959

He is one of the few who had the privilege of being taught by Alfred Brendel, although only began playing the piano at the age of 12. Paul Lewis, a highly regarded interpreter of Beethoven and Schubert, will be coming straight from Tanglewood, where he is performing with the Boston Symphony Orchestra, among others, to join us in Hitzacker. For a long time, Lewis has been fascinated by the sonatas of Franz Schubert, which he began recording over 20 years ago and has recently completed, earning him the Diapason d'Or. "I love Schubert's vulnerability. I love the fragility. I love the lack of resolution. In some ways, it's the most real and human music," says Lewis. And the press raves: "Lewis' Schubert is a journey to the edge of consciousness; for those who engage with it, it is a profound and unique experience."
