In den 1920er Jahren setzte Ida Dehmel sich dafür ein, Kunst nicht als elitäres Gut einer von Männern dominierten Gesellschaft zu verstehen. Als moderne Kulturmanagerin sah sie die Zukunft in Netzwerken. Sie baute Brücken, verbündete Frauen und gab Künstlerinnen aller Sparten eine Stimme. 100 Jahre später beweist „Ida’s Song“, wie aktuell diese Ideen sind. Inspiriert von Briefen und Reden Ida Dehmels entstand in ihrem Blankeneser Haus ein genreübergreifendes Musikvideo: Die Elektropop-Künstlerin KUOKO reagiert mit ihrer Komposition auf Zeitdokumente, holt Gedanken in die Gegenwart und setzt sie in ihre individuelle Musik- und Wortsprache um. Die Premiere feiern wir mit Live Act von KUOKO und Kunstliedern aus der Dehmel-Zeit mit Olivia Boen und Camille Lemonnier. Tags darauf hat das Dehmelhaus geöffnet.

The 2022 Internationale Meistersinger Akademie participants join Gábor Hontvári conducting the Nürnberger Symphoniker for an evening of favorite operatic arias.

While Mahler’s First Symphony ends in a blaze of glory that depicts the life of its eponymous hero, The Titan, the Second begins starkly at the hero’s graveside. When Mahler played this dramatic first movement to Hans von Bülow, his mentor, the latter sat with his hands over his ears and declared that it made Wagner’s Tristan sound like a Haydn symphony.

Little wonder then that Mahler struggled with knowing how to continue. With no little irony, it was at von Bülow’s funeral three years later that Mahler heard the inspiration he needed. A setting of Klopstock’s Resurrection Ode (Die Auferstehung) gave Mahler both the text and the title to complete what was to become his greatest and most successful work.

Awe-inspiring, and epic beyond belief, with choirs, soloists and a vast orchestra, Mahler’s Second Symphony is a celebration of life itself.
