Klosters Music - Wide landscapes

There is a scene by the stream, a thunderstorm and a shepherd's song. Ludwig van Beethoven's 6th Symphony with the epithet "Pastorale" takes the listener outdoors, even if for the composer himself his music meant "more expression of feeling than painting": nature as a mirror of the soul. The Deutsche Kammerphilharmonie Bremen received much praise for its complete recording of all Beethoven symphonies. On this evening, the young Finn Tarmo Peltokoski will be the first guest conductor of the top orchestra, which tells of water, wind and the legendary Fingals Cave with Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy's concert overture "The Hebrides". Andreas Ottensamer, principal clarinettist of the Berliner Philharmoniker, discovers the vastness of musical landscapes in Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart's Clarinet Concerto, especially in the beguiling Adagio.
