Contemporary music as a starting point then, followed by the world premiere of Karen Tanaka’s new piano concerto, Techno Etudes IV,  played by the tireless ambassador of new music Ralph van Raat on October 10. Listen in this playlist to another Techno Etudes to get a taste of it. Another concert, another (Dutch) premiere with a new work of Thomas Adès being played for the first time by the beloved Danish String Quartet on October 12. On October 23, Philip Glass’ Third Symphony will be performed by Sinfonietta Cracovia alongside pieces of Wojciech Kilar, also in the playlist, Hanna Kulenty and Steve Reich.

Not enough? There's more! The Haydn Piano Trio (performed by Van Baerle Trio on October 26) brings you back to the Classical period while the Vier Klavierstücke of Brahms and the Preludes of Scriabin give you a taste of the (late) Romantic program of the young piano phenomenon Alexander Malofeev on September 28. As a bridge between the two periods, Schubert’s String Quintet will be performed by the Danish String Quartet as well.

For the fans of beautiful voices, the playlist offers a preview of the Romantic songs of Brahms and Schumann by bariton Florian Boesch on September 29, and the beautiful lamentations of  J.C. Bach and Dietrich Buxtehude by countertenor Maarten Engeltjes on October 5. Lots of magnificent works for choirs are also to be heard in this playlist and the next two months: the majestic Bruckner’s Mass No.2 on October 3, the greatest English choral music of the 16th century on october 6 with Orlando Gibbons or Thomas Tallis, as well as beautiful Renaissance music by Orlando di Lasso and Giovanni Pierluigi da Palestrina on October 15.

Last but not least, you’ll hear traditional pieces with Kayhan Kalhor on his kamancheh, the Persian violin. He will be on our stage on September 20 for the 4th edition of Requiem for Justice.

Come back at the end of October to discover in music the program of November and December!
