The Deutsche Kammerphilharmonie Bremen’s academy musicians’ concert
Entrepreneurial courage and an openness for new formats as well as excellent musical talents, these are the characteristics which are crucial for a career in the 21st century music world. Four Deutsche Kammerphilharmonie academy musicians spend two years following the rigorous training programme and the four current graduates of the Orchestra Academy are now about to give their own concert, to be completed as part of their training programme and which will be organised and performed entirely autonomously – from the programme design to the pre-concert talk, right through to marketing and sales. What is also unusual is the format as this particular concert has a very experimental character in that the audience can listen to Bach’s ›The Art of Fugue‹ while relaxing on cushions. For Pierre Jalbert’s contemporary work, the audience will be invited to become active and either draw, paint or sketch their associations onto a canvas. The pictorial results will then be available for general viewing while enjoying some refreshments during the interval. The second half of the concert promises to be more classical; together with cellist Tanja Tetzlaff the Academy Musicians will be performing Schubert’s String Quintet in C.
