Music by Johannes Brahms for four hands would be nothing special in a piano recital by the renowned Israeli duo Silver-Garburg, but with orchestra? The versatile Austrian composer Richard Dünser has arranged Brahms' highly romantic G minor Piano Quartet op. 25 as a concerto for piano four hands and string orchestra only in 2018 and especially for Silver-Garburg.
England's "classic" Edward Elgar is sometimes referred to as the "British Brahms", which is not entirely unjustified. For example, like Brahms, Elgar was a master of variation and the "Enigma Variations" are his masterpiece in this technique. Yet they do not sound technical at all, but rather at times pleasurable, at times poetic, often powerfully uplifting. By the way, the riddles of this work are all solvable, except one - and that will remain unsolvable. The Belgian National Orchestra will be conducted by the internationally successful German maestro Constantin Trinks during this Salzburg guest performance.

Unfortunately, the introductory lectures before our subscription concerts cannot take place this season due to corona-related conditions.

Single tickets: € 26 - € 89
€ 12 for U27
