KAMIOKA AND MAHLERS 1.
Austrian Gustav Mahler's mammoth symphonies revolutionized music history around the year 1900. With its description of the sorrows and triumphs of human life, his Symphony No. 1 is the most iconic symphonic debut of a composer ever!

Copenhagen Phil's Japanese chief conductor Toshiyuki Kamioka takes us on an original time journey through three centuries - and the breathtaking repertoire requires such a colossal orchestra that talented students from Det Kgl. The Danish Conservatory of Music is invited on stage. At the top of the menu is nothing less than Mahler's first symphony. A unique masterpiece, based on the beginning of life and the awakening of nature after winter sleep. From here a whole life unfolds with human love, sorrow, impotence and final triumph. With death symbolized by an iconic bass solo and the banal Mester Jakob melody played in minor.

Italian Nino Rota was the preferred film composer for directors such as Federico Fellini and Luchino Visconti. But Rota didn't just write catchy music for the cinema. His concert hall music is image-creating in its own right. Hear for yourself when Copenhagen Phil's trombonist Brian Santero is a soloist in Rota's trombone concert.

The evening begins with one of the most interesting young composers of our time: Young Icelandic Bára Gísladóttir, who here sets the tone for our time. Her work ÓS from 2018 stems from the ambiguous Icelandic title, which can mean both estuary and mouth.

 

The concert is supported by the Obel Family Foundation.

English

Østrigske Gustav Mahlers mammutsymfonier revolutionerede musikhistorien omkring år 1900. Med sin beskrivelse af menneskelivets sorger og triumfer er hans symfoni nr. 1 den mest ikoniske symfoniske debut af en komponist nogensinde!

Copenhagen Phils japanske chefdirigent Toshiyuki Kamioka tager os på en original tidsrejse gennem tre århundreder – og det bjergtagende repertoire kræver et så kolossalt orkester, at talentfulde studerende fra Det Kgl. Danske Musikkonservatorium er inviteret med på scenen. Øverst på menuen står intet mindre end Mahlers første symfoni. Et enestående mesterværk, der tager afsæt i livets begyndelse og naturens opvågnen efter vintersøvnen. Herfra bliver et helt liv udfoldet med menneskelig kærlighed, sorg, afmagt og afsluttende triumf. Med døden symboliseret af en ikonisk bassolo og den banale Mester Jakob­-melodi spillet i mol.

Italienske Nino Rota var den foretrukne film­ komponist for instruktører som Federico Fellini og Luchino Visconti. Men Rota skrev ikke kun iørefaldende musik til biografen. Hans koncertsalsmusik er billedskabende i egen ret. Hør selv, når Copenhagen Phils basunist Brian Santero er solist i Rotas basunkoncert.

Aftenen indledes med en af vor tids mest interessante unge komponister: Unge islandske Bára Gísladóttir, der her sætter toner på vores tid. Hendes værk ÓS fra 2018 udspringer af den tvetydige islandske titel, som både kan betyde flodmunding og mund.

 

Koncerten er støttet af Det Obelske Familiefond.
