The Kaiserrequiem live on Teatro Massimo TV on 8 November at 20:15 CET – the joint creation by Music Director of Teatro Massimo Omer Meir Wellber and director Marco Gandini combines Viktor Ullmann’s Der Kaiser von Atlantis with Mozart’s Requiem. More information here.
As the new music director of the Volksoper Wien, Omer Meir Wellber leads the new production of Jolanthe und der Nussknacker, a musical theater based on the opera and ballet by Tchaikovsky in a production by Volksoper director Lotte de Beer. The premiere will take place on 9 October.
In Jolanthe und der Nussknacker, the Volksoper combines Tchaikovsky’s opera Jolanthe with the ballet Der Nussknacker to create a story about a blind princess who might be cured, but only after she is told about her blindness. The result is a story about learning, life and growing up.
Please find more information about the play here.
Kent Nagano starts the 2022/23 season with the opening concerts of the 195th season of the Philharmonisches Staatsorchester Hamburg on 2 and 4 October and the premiere of the new production of Wagner’s Der fliegende Holländer in a production by Michael Thalheimer on 23 October at the Staatsoper.
All information about concerts with Kent Nagano in Hamburg can be found here. An overview of premieres and revivals at the Staatsoper in Hamburg can be found here.
Omer Meir Wellber began his tenure as Music Director of the Volksoper Wien on 1 September. With Jolanthe and the Nutcracker, a musical theater based on the opera and ballet by Peter Ilyich Tchaikovsky, Wellber will present his first new production at the house on 9 October, together with the Artistic Director Lotte de Beer directing. Prior to this premiere, he conducts his symphonic debut with the Volksoper Orchestra and violinist Midori at the Vienna Konzerthaus on 13 September and his first opera performance at the Volksoper with Mozart’s Magic Flute on 14 September.
With his debut CD Whispers of Tradition on GENUIN, recorder player Max Volbers presents “a stylistically varied program with two concertos, a world premiere, music with variable continuo instruments, and consort music. These are either paraphrases, series of variations, arrangements, pasticcios, etc. of my own – or, as in the case of the Dieupart suite, they are arranged by the composer himself for the recorder. Thanos Sakellaridis wrote the piece “Please enter the Underground” for Elisabeth and myself. What unites all the pieces is the joy of discovery and the desire to create new repertoire for the recorder.”
Along with 11 musicians and with a total of 26 different instruments, including various recorders, archlute, harpsichord, violin, viola da gamba, the winner of the Deutscher Musikwettbewerb 2021 Max Volbers, who studied with Dorothee Oberlinger among others, explores the wide range of the recorder repertoire and shows “in how many different types of ensembles the recorder can be used, and also the roles that it plays in them“.
Omer Meir Wellber’s novel was published in French by Éditions du sous-sol in August, Les Absences de Haïm Birkner tells the story of Chaim Birkner, a tired and broken man who is forced by his daughter to face life one last time. The novel was also published in German (BerlinVerlag) and in Italian (Sellerio Editore).
