Distant worlds can be enigmatic. However, exploring foreign territory has certain invariables: It broadens the horizon, opens the eyes and the ears, and sharpens the senses for other, seemingly foreign styles, cultures and forms of expression. The three works in this programme have different ways of combining distance and proximity. Apart from overcoming geographical distances by means of their music, the Hungarian Ernst von Dohnányi and the Russians Sergei Prokofiev and Dmitri Shostakovich also composed these works 80 to 100 years ago – which to some of us seems like ancient history. And yet: Sometimes, the past blows a fresh breeze our way, one that catches us off guard and affects us all over again. Ernst von Dohnányi’s brilliant sextet sends us on a dizzying journey past Gustav Mahler, Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy and dashing Ragtime rhythms, always keeping us alert for what might be around the corner. In his Overture on Hebrew Themes, which was completed in one quick stroke of genius, Sergei Prokofiev pays tribute to the grand tradition of Yiddish Klezmer. The dramatic piano quintet by Dmitri Shostakovich is an homage to Johann Sebastian Bach – and at the same time a piece marked by interruptions, surpressed passion and dark premonitions.
