In summery July, the promising Mediterranean Sea beckons: Italy becomes the destination, together with its neighbor France and neighboring Spain. Off to the South connects the Spanish zarzuela with the origin of the operetta genre in general: Jacques Offenbach. The musical thread leads via his compatriots Léo Delibes, Georges Bizet and Reynaldo Hahn to Italy, where Giacomo Puccini withdrew the operetta label from his opera La Rondine at the last minute or his verismo contemporary Pietro Mascagni ventured into this genre with exactly one work. “The new series Ein Lied goes around the worldwas of course brought to life as an extended offer to our audience,” explains Johannes Pell, who will conduct this concert. "But at the same time it is an opportunity for our orchestra and our singers to leave the usual radius and gain a symphonic or unusual music-theatrical dimension. The southern European program in particular opens up a rich spectrum of new worlds of sound and playing possibilities.”
