Statement about the Music Diversity Initiative
The desire for greater financial support for the independent scene, including in music, is understandable. The Basel Chamber Orchestra supports this, but not at the expense of existing structures.
The new academics have been selected
In an audition at the Musik-Akademie Basel, four young musicians were selected to take part in projects with the Basel Chamber Orchestra this season.
You can get a first musical impression at the lunch concert on November 2nd at the Musik-Akademie.
Hélène Grimaud taken ill
Hélène Grimaud has unfortunately canceled the first subscription concert with the Basel Chamber Orchestra due to illness. Ten days ago we were still rehearsing intensively with her and played the first concert in Gstaad on August 18th.
With Francesco Piemontesi, we have found a top-class replacement who has performed this year at the BBC Proms in the Royal Albert Hall and at the Lucerne Festival. As planned, he will play Ludwig van Beethoven's Fourth Piano Concerto. So now we have «femmes et homme exceptionnelles».
You can get an impression here: Beethoven's fourth piano concerto played by Francesco Piemontesi at the Elphi in Hamburg.
