Dutch duo performs dazzling Mendelssohn

In collaboration with the Württembergisches Kammerorchester and the University of Music Stuttgart, Heilbronn Theater created a production whose young protagonists knock the audience off their seats.

Gemeinsam mit Klarinettist Andreas Ottensamer schaffte das Württembergische Kammerorchester eine gelungene Verbindung aus „filmmusikartiger“ und großer Klassik, von Rota bis Mozart.

Brautigam bridged Wilms and Beethoven at the fortepiano, while Farrenc’s First Symphony added symphonic breadth, all shaped by the assured playing of the Kölner Akademie under Michael Alexander Willens.

Streamed from an empty concert hall, the Concertgebouw's Beethoven Festival Online offered a series of six chamber works. 

Nicholas Collon decides that Mendelssohn is really a very revolutionary composer, while Amy Dickson's saxophone and Ronald Brautigam in Mozart provide vibrant contrasts.

At BRQ Vantaa Festival, Ronald Brautigam opens eyes and ears, displaying immaculate technique on a replica of a Beethoven-era piano.
