Riccardo Minasi dirigiert Schubert und Haydn

In the organizer's words:

Riccardo Minasi presents three works with musical cross-connections and references to traditions and (re)discoveries: British composer Anna Clyne was inspired by Haydn's Symphony No. 60 "Il Distratto" and Shakespeare's "Macbeth" for her furious orchestral piece. Luciano Berio produced a "musical restoration" based on models and motifs from Franz Schubert's unfinished 10th Symphony. His aim was to reveal Schubert's colors and structures without concealing the musical innovations that had developed over time. At the premiere of Michael Haydn's Missa pro defuncto in Salzburg in 1771, the 15-year-old Wolfgang played in the orchestra alongside Leopold Mozart. Haydn's Requiem was etched into the young Mozart's musical memory. When he composed his own Requiem 20 years later, he adopted not only key sequences but also musical structures from Haydn's model. Anyone who loves Mozart's Requiem can embark on an exciting search for clues here.
