Die Geschenke der Nacht

Graz

Austria

In the third Fux opera excavation of the styriarte, Alfredo Bernardini presents the audience with all the splendor of the baroque sound. Trumpets, oboes, bassoons, chalumeau and strings celebrate the night with their big performance in the Helmut List Halle. "The Gifts of the Night" is the name of the birthday opera for Empress Amalie Wilhelmine from 1709. Johann Joseph Fux, the Styrian baroque genius, wrote captivating music for it, which brings the magic of a baroque summer night to today's Graz. Fantastic baroque voices shine in the most beautiful arias of the work, while the Styriarte Festival Orchestra unfolds nocturnal moods. Vivaldi's Night Concerto for flute and bassoon and a particularly richly illustrated orchestral work by Fux serve as interludes in the concert performance of the opera scenes:
