HILARY HAHN & OMER MEIR WELLBER

An evening of baroque enchantment and classical brilliance: Hilary Hahn, the Deutsche Kammerphilharmonie Bremen, and Omer Meir Wellber invite you to experience this at their joint concert in Ludwigsburg. The exceptional violinist from the USA will not only perform as a soloist in Mozart’s demanding Fifth Violin Concerto but will also share this role in Aziza Sadikova’s piece with the evening’s conductor, Omer Meir Wellber, who will play the accordion in the double concerto »Labyrinthe du Temps«. »With the help of contemporary soundscapes«, the 2023 composition »looks into a world of baroque magic and elegance«, as Uzbek-German composer Sadikova describes it. The two soloists and the orchestra evoke »the sound of these voices, the rustling of dresses and velvet suits, the sound of emotions«. Before this magic unfolds, Mozart’s overture to the opera »Don Giovanni« opens the concert with its characteristic mix of wit, drama, and euphoria. The Viennese prodigy is said to have completed the overture just hours before the premiere. World-renowned Hilary Hahn was also regarded as a prodigy in her youth – her unwavering precision, breathtaking expressiveness, and radiant sound qualities have made her one of the greatest violinists in the string world for decades. Who could resist such a prestigious invitation?

This concert is part of the Festival Subscription-VII.
