1. Sinfoniekonzert - Liebe Und Glaube by Wagner, Hindemith, 日 25 9月 2022, から (2022/2022), 導体 Sébastien Rouland, Saarländisches Staatstheater, Saarbrücken, Germany

On the one hand love, on the other faith - Richard Wagner's Tannhäuser quarrels: Just as he is captivated by the shimmering eroticism of the goddess Venus, so is the contrast to chaste, earthly love. This contradiction resounds in the overture to »Tannhäuser« as well as in the Venusberg Bacchanalia, as struggles between seemingly irreconcilable concepts of love. But Wagner's musical examination of complicated love relationships does not only extend to this opera, the "Wesendonck-Lieder", named after the author of the underlying poems, Mathilde Wesendonck, the wife of Wagner's patron, are a study in tricky love situations and are considered to be Inspiration for »Tristan and Isolde«. Paul Hindemith addresses a completely different form of overwhelm in his symphony »Mathis der Maler«, because there is no conflict between the profane and the sacred. The beauty of the medieval Isenheim Altarpiece with its enigmatic, ethereal paintings later inspired him to write his opera of the same name.
