Style and atmosphere may differ, but both summer evenings have cult status in common! The first one presents the Orchestre Philharmonique du Luxembourg and its music director with the soprano Kristine Opolais, the baritone Thomas Hampson and the Choeur de Chambre de Luxembourg on an open-air stage at the heart of the city of Luxembourg. They will create a unique, carefree atmosphere to be enjoyed by many with their family and friends. During the second event, which attracts partygoers from beyond the borders of the Grand Region, the Philharmonie will once again be transformed into a gigantic dance floor. On this night top stars of the electro scene will bring their magic to the turntables.

Text
A fairy-tale which is actually about fairies: here we have the local workmen trying put on a play until one of them is turned into a donkey, loving couples mistaking each other’s identity and the inventive elf Puck making fun of them all.

A real musical treasure: rediscovered music by the composer of the fairy-tale opera Hänsel und Gretel accompanies a story which asks the questions what is happiness and how do we find it?

Brad Lubman
direction
In its rainy days concert, the OPL constrasts current orchestral worlds – a new work by Mark Andre, a sound explosion by Milica Djordjević and musical reflections on decolonization by George Lewis – with a work worth rediscovering: Younghi Pagh-Paan’s homage to the creative powers of women in Korean folk culture.

They have long branched out from performing purely early music, and here they join the OPL under Hans-Christoph Rademann’s baton to present Hector Berlioz’ rarely-performed setting of the story of Christ’s birth.

With his Fourth Symphony, Karol Szymanowski not only continued a long line of tradition, but also explored a highly successful classical form, the sinfonia concertante. Spirited interplay between the soloist and the orchestra and a truly symphonic treatment of musical themes await.

Moving through our environment with open ears, finding the beauty of nature reflected in music. Composers have always been inspired by the sounds of their surroundings – birdsong, storms, the roaring sea… As diverse as the interfaces between music and environment are the approaches to both of them that arise from cultivating this attitude. That is where the third themed weekend comes in: it features workshops and concerts, to arouse curiosity among listeners of all ages, and too explores how we can treat our environment with respect.
