›together for the fortune of tomorrow‹
Charity Concert
in cooperation with Kunst fördert Kunst e.V.
It is a special honour indeed for young soloists to be given the chance to perform with The Deutsche Kammerphilharmonie Bremen. At the charity concert ›gemeinsam für das Glück von morgen‹ (›together for tomorrow’s happiness‹) three highly talented young musicians are for the 4th time being offered this opportunity. Horn player Tillmann Höfs and viola player Silas Zschocke are members of the German National Youth Orchestra and multi-award winners in the ›Jugend musiziert‹ competition. They both started instrumental studies as young students during their school years and have made several solo appearances. Benedikt Kristjánsson from Iceland studied in Berlin and has won prizes at several competitions. He has appeared as a soloist in three productions of the Berlin State Opera, as well as in the role of Ibn Sina in ›Sehnsucht nach Isfahan‹, the 6th Community Opera put on by The Deutsche Kammerphilharmonie Bremen in October 2015. The wide range of initiatives to promote young talent is particularly important to the musicians from The Deutsche Kammerphilharmonie Bremen and the ›Kunst fördert Kunst‹ (›Art promotes art‹) society. The proceeds from this charity concert help to fund the production of the Community Operas in Bremen’s Osterholz-Tenever district. This way, the orchestra ideally combines promoting gifted young players and music on a wider scale with social commitment.
