Kammermusik-matinee by D'Indy, Vincent, Mozart, Mahler, Saint-Saëns, No (2023/2023), Deutsches Nationaltheater, Weimar, Germany

With the development of valve technology and the emancipation from the natural series, the trumpet has blossomed from a signal instrument to a veritable singer since the classical period. The Septet op. 65 for trumpet, strings and piano by the French Camille Saint-Saëns, for example, speaks for this, which, like a “carnival of styles”, has many an ironic facet ready. Music by d'Indy and Mozart as well as Mahler's enchanting »Blumine« complete the programme.
