Approved

Første verdenskrig ændrer Europa for altid – og i 1913, året inden krigen bryder ud, ser to meget forskellige værker dagens lys i Paris. Stravinskijs Le sacre du printemps bliver en kæmpe skandale ved uropførelsen – og den kun 19-årige Lili Boulanger skaber sensation som den første kvindelige vinder af Pariserkonservatoriets store komponistpris for sin nye Faust-kantate.

Claude Debussy himself was beyond enthusiastic about the talented Lili Boulanger's Faust et Hélène based on Goethe's Faust. The German conductor Christoph Gedschold, together with three hand-picked soloists and the Copenhagen Phil, gives us a rare chance to experience the work that magically turned Lili Boulanger into one of France's most promising young composers. Tragically, she never managed to really develop her talent - she died only five years later from a chronic stomach disorder.

Igor Stravinsky's ballet music for Le sacre du printemps – the spring sacrifice – created a wild uproar and uproar at the premiere in Paris in 1913. From the very first sound – the bassoon solo in the instrument's highest pitch – the French audience could not believe their eyes or ears. Never before had they experienced something so wild and unrestrained. The choreography on stage didn't make it any better either, and soon everything was drowned in boos and protests. Today, Sacre is one of the orchestral world's most popular works with its inciting rhythms and enormous expressive power. A masterpiece.

Joint concert with the Royal Danish Conservatory of Music.

The First World War changes Europe forever - and in 1913, the year before the war breaks out, two very different works see the light of day in Paris. Stravinsky's Le sacre du printemps becomes a huge scandal at the premiere - and the only 19-year-old Lili Boulanger creates a sensation as the first female winner of the Paris Conservatoire's major composer prize for her new Faust cantata.
