General Ticket Information

Nicolas Altstaedt is not only one of the most fascinating cellists of our time, he is also a passionate collaborative artist. He is constantly searching for connections between voices and temperaments, bringing together musical traditions and works from all eras. Now the Heidelberg-born musician is working with the immensely talented young colleagues from the Festivalcampus: Together they are building a sonic cabinet of curiosities in which the archaic foundations of musical art - dance and cult - create sophisticated mirror effects. Stylized folklore meets concertante virtuosity, Giacinto Scelsi's rough sound explorations prepare the terrain for the brilliant Schubert reminiscences of Olli Mustonen's second nonet.

In the public rehearsal the day before, the audience will have the rare opportunity to witness the artistic creation process directly and to experience Altstaedt's inspiring dialog and creative exchange with the imaginative young musicians. To the Public Rehearsal
