Bozar is focusing on the colourful life of Handel in the ’25-’26 season. So his most famous work, Water Music, is an unmissable feature. The orchestral suite is named for its première in 1717: fifty musicians played the piece on the River Thames for the King of England. At least as many boats full of listeners formed a celebratory flotilla on the water. As well as Handel and Haydn, the Concerto Copenhagen and its conductor Lars Ulrik Mortensen will present their national heritage. Johann Adolf Scheibe, the Kapellmeister to the German court, was a self-made man whose compositions and treatises bridged the gap between the Baroque and Classicism. The Romantic composer J.P.E. Hartmann worked on his first opera with his fellow Dane Hans Christian Andersen a century later, but of course he needed no other geniuses for his First Symphony.
This concert celebrates the Danish Presidency of the Council of the European Union.
