PROGRAM AND CAST CHANGE | Hausbesetzung 4 - Late Night

Programme and cast changes
The Heidelberger Frühling is concerned about the war in Iran, which is now having a direct impact on the current festival: In the Late Night with the Swedish chamber orchestra O/Modernt, the Iranian vocal artist and composer Haleh Seyfizadeh was actually supposed to take on an important solo part. As she is currently unable to leave her home country, the concert's programme has had to be changed. The originally planned work "Mirror Memory" by Golfam Khayam with vocals composed by Haleh Seyfizadeh, which she would have interpreted, unfortunately had to be omitted. Instead, "The Patience of Trees" for solo violin, percussion and string orchestra by Dobrinka Tabakova has been added to the programme.
Late evening in the occupied house: remembrance, memory and bridging temporal gaps - these are the themes of this cross-cultural programme. Gustav Mahler's "Adagietto" conveys the painful longing for the unattainable past - as densely and intensely as only music can. At the beginning of the 21st century, Lera Auerbach seeks a dialog with Giovanni Pergolesi's poignant funeral music from 1736.
The concert is part of a temporary "Hausbesetzung": Hugo Ticciati and his highly acclaimed chamber orchestra O/Modernt are moving into the new Stadthalle concert hall in Heidelberg 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.

Who am I? Festival artist Hugo Ticciati asks himself this question at every concert. On stage with his ensemble O/Modernt, he undertakes journeys of self-discovery. To do so, he combines styles and spiritual ideas to create a great togetherness. In the podcast for the way home, he talks about buzzing excitement, cosmic energy and vulnerability.
