Olga Neuwirth describes her orchestral piece »Masaot/Clocks without Hands« as a »formed flow of memories«. As in a musical kaleidoscope, fragments from songs from very different traditions come together to form a polyphonic whole. It is no coincidence that this work arose from a composition commissioned to mark the 100th birthday of Gustav Mahler, whose musical imagination included folk songs and waltzes as well as fairground music and post horn signals. The "Lied von der Erde" also breaks musical boundaries and combines the two genres that were closest to the composer throughout his life: symphony and song cycle.

A free concert introduction with Hagen Kunze takes place 45 minutes before the start in the opera cellar.

Concert duration: approx. 105 minutes, including a 20-minute intermission

English

Als einen »geformten Fluss von Erinnerun­gen« beschreibt Olga Neuwirth ihr Orchester­stück »Masaot/Clocks without Hands«. Wie in einem musikalischen Kaleidoskop fügen sich Bruchstücke aus Liedern ganz verschiedener Traditionen zu einem vielstimmigen Ganzen. Kein Zufall, dass dieses Werk aus einem Kompositionsauftrag anlässlich des 100. Geburtstags von Gustav Mahler hervorging, dessen musikalische Fantasie Volkslieder und Walzer genauso umschloss wie Jahrmarkts­musik und Posthornsignale. Auch das »Lied von der Erde« sprengt musikalische Grenzen und vereint jene beiden Gattungen, die dem Komponisten zeitlebens am nächsten waren: Symphonie und Liederzyklus.

Eine kostenlose Konzerteinführung mit Hagen Kunze findet 45 Minuten vor Beginn im Opernkeller statt.

Konzertdauer: ca. 105 Minuten, einschließlich 20 Minuten Pause
