In the organizer's words:

The circle is complete. The final concert of the O/Modernt residency returns from the USA to Europe - on the trail of the boldest musical ideas since the 16th century. Nico Muhly, the composer born in Vermont in 1981, has rearranged movements by two English Renaissance masters for Hugo Ticciati and his ensemble. The violin concerto from 2019 generates gripping musical narratives from simple intervallic constellations. Just how risky Joseph Haydn and his pupil Beethoven were already operating around 1800 can be experienced in the second half of the concert. The fact that the "Farewell" is not at the end this time, but prepares Beethoven's wildest adventure ever, is certainly an optimistic signal.

The concert is part of a temporary "squat": Hugo Ticciati and his much-lauded chamber orchestra O/Modernt are moving into the new Heidelberg Stadthalle concert hall for three days. This residency comprises five very different formats with highly exciting soloists and is one of the ensemble's first major residencies outside Sweden.

The concert will be recorded by SWR Kultur.
