In its Easter concert on April 21 at the Konzerthaus Berlin, the Landesjugendorchester is once again devoting itself to great symphonic music. Tchaikovsky's 6th Symphony "Pathétique" is one of the most poignant works of the late Romantic period on the program. Tchaikovsky also used a melody from the Russian Orthodox liturgy for the dead. A premonition? Only a few days after the premiere on October 28, 1893 in St. Petersburg, Tchaikovsky died at the age of 53. Bohuslav Martinů also composed his Rhapsody Concerto for viola and orchestra with late Romantic echoes.
The Easter concert will open with a work that was not appreciated until later: in cooperation with the State Music Council's "Musical Stumbling Stones" project, the overture to the one-act play "Der zerbrochene Krug" by Viktor Ullmann (1889 -1944) will be performed. Viktor Ullmann was deported to the Theresienstadt concentration camp just a few weeks after completing the work. He was murdered in Auschwitz on October 18, 1944.
