8. Philharmonisches Konzert by Various, -tól (2023/2023), Karmester Ruben Gazarian, Theaterzelt, Gera, Germany

The 9th Philharmonic Concert balances between carefree pleasure and philosophical questions. With The Unanswered Question , Charles Ives set to music what also concerned him philosophically, namely the eternally asked and never definitively answered question about the purpose of existence. For Leonard Bernstein, this question could probably be answered unequivocally, because he dedicated his entire life to composing, conducting and communicating music. Nevertheless, in 1973 he chose the title of Charles Ive's work as the motto for a lecture series on music at Harvard University. Bernstein's career as a musical composer began in 1944 with On the Town . This work was intended as an encouraging musical interlude in the middle of World War II. Just as Bernstein dedicated himself to connecting the seemingly irreconcilable scenes of serious and light music, the Russian-British DJ and composer Gabriel Prokofiev also strives to convey classical music to all sections of society. In addition, he founded his own label Nonclassical in 2003 , with which he wants to inspire young people for classical music. The same is also the background of his concert for DJ and orchestra. Experience a concert that breaks the boundaries between "serious" and "entertaining" music!
