Individual versus religion: the Symphoniker Hamburg devotes an evening to Richard Strauss with the final song of his opera »Salome« and his »An Alpine Symphony« - with Petra Lang as Salome.


In his groundbreaking philosophical work, »The Antichrist«, Nietzsche said, »One must be skilled in living on mountains – seeing the wretched ephemeral babble beneath oneself«. Richard Strauss made an explicit reference to it in his »An Alpine Symphony«.  Composed at the beginning of World War One, he did not intend it as a nature-epic but rather as a musical Antichrist. His last symphonic poem is »moral purification from its own resources«.

English

Individuum gegen Religion: Mit dem Schlussgesang aus seiner Oper »Salome« und seiner »Alpensinfonie« widmen sich die Symphoniker Hamburg einen Abend lang ganz Richard Strauss – mit Petra Lang in der Rolle der Salome.

Bitte beachten Sie die Besetzungsänderung: Petra Lang musste leider krankheitsbedingt absagen. Für sie übernimmt die Sopranistin Camilla Nylund den Gesangspart im »Salome«-Schlussgesang.

»Man muss geübt sein, auf den Bergen zu leben – das erbärmliche Zeitgeschwätz unter sich zu sehen«, so Nietzsche in seinem bahnbrechenden philosophischen Werk »Der Antichrist«. Mit seiner »Alpensinfonie« nahm Richard Strauss ausdrücklich Bezug darauf. Komponiert zu Beginn Ersten Weltkriegs verstand er sie nicht etwa als Naturepos, sondern als musikalischen Antichrist: Seine letzte Tondichtung sei »sittliche Reinigung aus eigener Kraft«.
