Mahler’s 8th Symphony

Posted on by

On 28th, 30th April and 1st May Sarah Wegener was part of concerts of Gustav Mahler’s Symphony of a Thousand in Elbphilharmonie Hamburg as Soprano I.

Due to illness, Kent Nagano had to cancel. Eliahu Inbal overtook the thing with two rehearsals. I do hope that Maetro Nagano is feeling better again.

Sarah is so happy and proud that her debut of Mahler 8th has been so successful. Critics wrote that they had had goosebumps all over the place, and that her voice was floating beautifully through the hall. (SZ)
Hamburger Abendblatt wrote that Sarah’s voice thrilled completely and touched with beautiful, pure, powerful and intensive singing. 

Online magazine IOCO mentioned the highly pleasant soprano voice of Sarah which was described with soft, beautifully floating and warm of timbre.

NDR-News: http://www.ndr.de

Here comes a personal note from Sarah:

For me it has been an unforgettable experience full of powerful, celestial, fulfilling music.

 

May I thank everybody:
Maestro Inbal, Staatsorchester Hamburg, Staatsoper Hamburg, Opera Choir Hamburg, State Choir Latvia, Alterspatzen, Rosalie, Daniela Sindram, Heather Engebretson, Dorottya Láng, Burkhard Fritz, Kartal Karagedik, Wilhelm Schwinghammer, and especially my dear and grandiose soprano colleague  Jacqueline Wagner for the felt 247 high c’s which we sung together!!

It was such a joy to make music with you all!

Sarah

Apropos: I am a fan of the hall!

How lovely that you are here!

Music is back! This year has taken quite a different path than foreseen, but the important thing is that music is back! Some of my absolute highlights for this year, like for example my debut in the Royal Albert Hall London with Mahler 8th, cannot take place. But instead, other things are happening. So I am doing more chamber music right now. I am very happy to have the privilege to be able to work and sing live again!

Canada & Moritzburg

Posted on by

These have been really eventful weeks:
My trip to Canada and the Moritzburg Festival.

It has been my very first oversea trip westwards, my debut
with Maestro Kent Nagano, with the Orchestre
Symphonique de Montréal, in Maison Symphonique and
at Festival Lanaudière. This means several debuts at one time!
I also had the pleasure to do a chamber music recital with
members of the OSM. Amonst others we did the
transcriptions by Aribert Reimann of Schumann and
Brahms songs.
Here is a photo taken during the rehearsal at Piano Nobile:

IMG_5228

I gained a lot from my work in Canada, and the concerts – I have to admit freely – were fantastic! We could reach out to the people and touch them. With the „little“ chamber music as with the „big“ Mozart Requiem open air in front of 5000 people or Beethoven 9 in festive Maison Symphonique (which by the way has great acoustics!).
L6_980X125PX_HEADER_BRIEF2
In my spare time I listened to other concerts – like the concert for the 40th anniversary of Parc d‘Olympique – and saw as much of Montréal as possible, partly with my dear collegues Michèle Losier, Michael Schade and Alexander Tsymbalyuk. I experienced Montréal as very colourful and open. A lot of nationalities, ways of living, but also the cityscape is colourful: historical churches or other buildings between and next to modern skyscrapers.

IMG_5166  IMG_5162

This is me on my excursion to Mont-Royal which Montréal
is named after. There are wonderful views from there!

IMG_5175

Country and people gave me a warm welcome. One funny thing I found out is the accent: Québecois.
Ca dzure dziis minuites (Ca dure dix minutes) – something like that. Very charming. At the beginning I coudn‘t understand anything, despite speaking nearly fluent French, but fortunately got used to it very quickly.

IMG_5258
In December I will be back already. This time for winter (for St Matthews Passion and Brahm‘s Requiem). Looking forward to that very much!!

Afterwards, I travelled to Moritzburg (experiencing a huge jetlag, oh dear), being guest for concerts of chamber music – following the invitation of Jan Vogler, the artistic director of the festival.

It has been a wonderful time of working and living together with different artists in a very open and warm atmosphere. We had breakfast, lunch and dinner together, and hopped from from rehearsal to another – everybody being part of different music groups.

My personal highlight was my portrait concert and “Maiblumen blühten überall with string sextet by Alexander Zemlinsky. My highlight as a listener was Mendelssohn’s string octet in E flat major. Fireworks!

These were the artists of the festival 2016:

On these stairs Cinderella lost her shoe…
