Nathalie Stutzmann conducts the Münchner Philharmoniker

Synopsis

“Nathalie Stutzmann triumphed on her debut with the Münchner Philharmoniker as unpretentiously as precisely.” (Süddeutsche Zeitung) French conductor Nathalie Stutzmann, newly appointed music director in Atlanta, makes her debut with the Münchner Philharmoniker with a “fateful” program: Johannes Brahms’ Schicksalslied (Song of Fate), which was written close in time to his Requiem, is based on a poem by Hölderlin. In contrast to the poem, Brahms lets his musical Schicksalslied end in hopeful tones. Max Reger’s Requiem is a haunting lament in view of the senseless victims of the First World War. Wiebke Lehmkuhl through her singing underlines the appeal against indifference and forgetfulness. Tchaikovsky’s “Fifth” with its omnipresent “fate motif” concludes this concert. Programme: J. Brahms: “Schicksalslied” (Song of Destiny) for choir and orchestra, Op. 54; M. Reger: Requiem for alto, choir and orchestra, Op. 144/B; P. I. Tchaikovsky: Symphony No. 5 in E minor, Op. 64
