Der Dirigent und Komponist Jörg Widmann ist ab der Spielzeit 2023/24 Erster Gastdirigent der NDR Radiophilharmonie. Für seinen Auftritt in der Reihe Klassik Extra hat er ein eigenes Werk mitgebracht.

Das Komponieren von Fugen ist eine hohe Kunst. Die Auseinandersetzung mit dieser Kunst der Polyphonie stieß beim jungen Kompositionsschüler Jörg Widmann allerdings nicht auf Gegenliebe. "Meine Lehrer haben sie mir immer nahegelegt - von Hans Werner Henze angefangen, der mir Johann Joseph Fux‘ Kontrapunkt-Lehrbuch ,Gradus ad parnassum‘ von 1725 so sehr empfahl. In meiner jugendlichen Arglosigkeit hielt ich das aber für Sauerbier oder Schwarzbrot." Darüber und wie er dann doch zum Fugenkomponieren kam, berichtet der Komponist dem Publikum in diesem Klassik-Extra-Konzert aus erster Hand.

Deutsch

The conductor and composer Jörg Widmann will be Principal Guest Conductor of the NDR Radio Philharmonic from the 2023/24 season. He brought his own work with him for his appearance in the Klassik Extra series.

Composing fugues is a high art. However, dealing with this art of polyphony was not well received by the young composition student Jörg Widmann. "My teachers always suggested it to me - starting with Hans Werner Henze, who so strongly recommended Johann Joseph Fux's counterpoint textbook 'Gradus ad parnassum' from 1725. In my youthful innocence, however, I took it for sour beer or brown bread." In this extra classical concert, the composer tells the audience first-hand about this and how he ended up composing fugues.
