There is no question that the annual open-air concert on the Rathausmarkt, a gift from the Philharmonic State Orchestra to its loyal audience, is one of the city's most popular classical music events. Chief conductor Kent Nagano ensures intoxicating evenings in the open air in late summer. This year you can experience where Ludwig van Beethoven, the later revolutionary of all music that was valid up to that point, started: strictly chronologically speaking, his second piano concerto is actually his first; here he is still close to his predecessors Haydn and Mozart. The pianist Mari Kodama plays the solo part, which, which is not surprising given the composer's name, contains quite a few harmonic surprises. Afterwards, the Philharmonic State Orchestra will play Mendelssohn's Reformation Symphony under Kent Nagano's baton.
"Starting the season in the middle of the city together with the people of Hamburg gives our orchestra and the team a wonderful wave of positive energy - an absolute highlight of the season in a dream setting." Barbara Fasching, orchestra
director

Keine Frage, das alljährliche Open-Air-Konzert auf dem Rathausmarkt, ein Geschenk des Philharmonischen Staatsorchesters an sein treues Publikum, gehört zu den beliebtesten Klassik-Events der Stadt. Chefdirigent Kent Nagano sorgt im Spätsommer für berauschende Abende unter freiem Himmel. In diesem Jahr lässt sich erleben, von wo aus Ludwig van Beethoven, der spätere Umwälzer aller bis dato gültigen Musik startete: Sein zweites Klavierkonzert ist streng chronologisch betrachtet eigentlich sein erstes; hier ist er noch nah bei seinen Vorgängern Haydn und Mozart. Die Pianistin Mari Kodama spielt den Solopart, der, was angesichts des Komponistenamens dann doch nicht Wunder nimmt, durchaus manch harmonisch Überraschendes bereithält. Danach spielt das Philharmonische Staatsorchester unter Kent Naganos Leitung Mendelssohns Reformationssymphonie, die der gebürtige Hamburger mit Anfang 20 zu Papier brachte.
„Inmitten der Stadt gemeinsam mit den Hamburgerinnen und Hamburgern in die Saison zu starten, gibt unserem Orchester und dem Team eine wundervolle Welle an positiver Energie – ein absoluter Spielzeit-Höhepunkt in Traumkulisse.“
Barbara Fasching, Orchesterdirektorin
