Isabelle Faust & Friends

Berg / Webern / Schönberg / Brahms

Wie heißt diese Band? Die Komponisten Erwin Stein, Arnold Schönberg und Anton Webern bei einem Spaziergang, 1914 – Drei Männer in Mänteln vor einem Kanal, der mittlere schaut in die Kamera

Arnold Schönberg’s Chamber Symphony famously once led to a riot in Vienna, but now the only virtuoso handiwork happens on stage when violinist Isabelle Faust tackles this challenging and rarely performed piece. In this evening of chamber music, some of the great works of early new music lead into the melancholy of Brahms’s Clarinet Quintet.

Alban Berg (1885 – 1935)

Adagio from Chamber Concerto (1924)

Version for clarinet, violin and piano 

Anton Webern (1883 – 1945)

Satz for String Trio op. Posthum “calmly flowing“ (1925)

Arnold Schönberg (1874 – 1951)

Chamber Symphony No. 1 in E major op. 9 (1906)

In the version for violin, flute, clarinet, violoncello and piano

by Anton Webern (1923)

Phantasy for Violin with piano accompaniment op. 47 (1949)

Johannes Brahms (1833 – 1897)

Clarinet Quintet in B minor op. 115 (1891)

Artists/Collaborators: Julia Hagen, Florent Boffard, Meesun Hong Coleman, William Coleman, Pascal Moraguès, Júlia Gállego

The performance of Brahms’s Clarinet Quintet corresponds with the Berliner Philharmoniker’s chamber music afternoon event on 15 September 2024: the programme includes the benchmark clarinet quintet by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart and Wolfgang Rihm’s response and continuation of this important clarinet quintet tradition.
