About the event
From the organiser, as published on Ticketmaster.
Czech Philharmonic Prague & Coro di Praga BEETHOVEN'S 9TH SYMPHONY & CARMINA BURANA Two monumental works of classical music are honoured in this concert: Beethoven's 9th Symphony and Carl Orff's Carmina Burana. The Czech Philharmonic Prague performs together with the Coro di Praga and three vocal soloists in the traditional New Year concert at the Berlin Philharmonie. "Everything I have written so far, you can now pulp.
With Carmina Burana my complete works begin." This is how Carl Orff expressed himself in 1937 in Frankfurt to his publisher Ludwig Strecker. He himself described the three-part work as secular songs for soloists and choir with instrumental accompaniment and magical images.
Musically staged by the Czech Philharmonic, the work is realised powerfully. The Coro di Praga frames the performance with the mighty tribute chorus to the goddess Fortuna, whose wheel of fate stands for the ups and downs of human life.
Fittingly, the universally known opening of Ludwig van Beethoven's 9th Symphony sounds with the text of Friedrich Schiller's Ode to Joy: "Joy, beautiful spark of the gods, daughter of Elysium." Beethoven spent more than half a decade on this masterpiece and did so in a state of complete deafness. Especially the triumphant finale, with which the Prague Choir makes Berlin's two largest concert halls vibrate, has an impressive effect that radiates happiness.
