O Magnum Mysterium

The Singphoniker prepare you for the Christmas season with enchanting sounds from Lasso to Poulenc and the most beloved and well-known Christmas carols- the perfect contrast to the hustle and bustle of the Advent season!

Fragile

RESONANZ – Musik an St. Johannes

The Singphoniker sing of the fragility and vanity of human life. Enter a cathedral of sound, built on pillars of the archaic music of Pierre de la Rue, with iridescent stained glass windows of impressionistic beauty, the straight Emotionality of Pop songs and the merciless directness of the post-war era.

Concert with a World Premiere by Ko Matsushita

A Celebration of Friendship

Singphoniker and Purple Voices

Carl & Veronika

Is that possible, is that even allowed? “Veronica, the spring is here” – an evergreen by the Comedian Harmonists side by side with “si puer cum puellula” from Carmina Burana by Carl Orff? You can, and you shall if you are the Singphoniker!

CD-Recording

Orlando di Lasso penitential psalms

Second recording session of the latest Lasso-CD-production with the penitential psalms by Orlando di Lasso. A musical cosmos, an opus summum of more than 140 minutes of music altogether.
The double CD will be completed this summer and will be released early 2018 by CPO in their ongoing Lasso Edition. (so far two CDs “Hymnus” and „Magnificat”).

Wilfried Hiller: The creation
(world premiere performance)

Wilfried Hiller´s latest composition was specially made for the Singphoniker. After the succesful oratorio “Augustinus” this will be another collaboration of the Singphoniker with this renowned composer.

Schubert & Kreisler – Two viennese songwriters

For this concert the Singphoniker will travel from the south of the republic to the far west to take their audience across the austrian border to Vienna. This programme will see the meeting of two men who never encountered each other in real life. You´ll experience an evening that will effortlessly combine classical and popular music- a trademark of the Singphoniker.

Departure

The great Orlando di Lasso is point of departure and inspiration for this programme.
The music dives right into his mighty cosmos of sound. Interesting aspect: the selected Magnificat settings by Lasso all reference an original composition of a revered colleague, breaking it open or even pushing it further. Just like that also contemporary composers use elements from long gone eras to create fascinating connections.

Schubert & Kreisler – Two viennese songwriters

Schubert and Kreisler: a viennese summit. Is that possible, is that even allowed? Schubert and Kreisler combined in one programme? On one side Schubert´s romantically transfigured nostalgia, on the other side the cabaret artist Georg Kreisler´s biting irony? The Singphoniker can. And they will. You´re going to be surprised!

Carl & Veronika

Carl Orff has often affirmed in interviews that he was a big fan of the Comedian Harmonists´. But how close are those artists really? Apart from gripping musical aspects a specially made moderation will revive the era until the mid 20th century and show how societal misdemeanour can influence an artist´s life and career.
