Wolfgang Rihm's "Transformation 6" develops from a gentle beginning to a powerful finale. In his exciting composition, he deals with the development and transmission of energy. After the world premiere by the Essen Philharmonic as part of the concert celebrating the tenth anniversary of the Essen Philharmonic in 2014, Tomás Netopil and his orchestra are now dedicating themselves to this work once again. Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart's Piano Concerto No. 24 follows less energetically charged, but full of depth and tragedy. After all, it is one of the few works that the composer wrote in a minor key. Incidentally, this even symphonic piano concerto is the favorite piece of the pianist Víkingur Ólafsson, to whom the Essen Philharmonic is dedicating an artist portrait this season. It was very important to Antonín Dvorák to shape a national school and to write genuine Czech music. In order to draw inspiration for his Fifth, he withdrew to his country estate in Vysoká and went for long walks. This is probably one of the reasons why this symphony is often referred to as his "Pastoral".

Von einem zarten Beginn hin zu einem wuchtigen Finale entwickelt sich die "Verwandlung 6" von Wolfgang Rihm, der sich in seiner spannungsreichen Komposition mit der Entfaltung und Weitergabe von Energie auseinandersetzt. Nach der Uraufführung durch die Essener Philharmoniker im Rahmen des Festkonzertes zum zehnjährigen Jubiläum der Philharmonie Essen 2014 widmen sich Tomás Netopil und sein Orchester diesem Werk nun ein weiteres Mal. Weniger energetisch geladen, doch voller Tiefe und Tragik folgt Wolfgang Amadeus Mozarts Klavierkonzert Nr. 24. Schließlich ist es eines der wenigen Werke, die der Komponist in einer Moll-Tonart verfasste. Dieses gar sinfonisch wirkende Klavierkonzert ist übrigens das Lieblingsstück des Pianisten Víkingur Ólafsson, dem die Philharmonie Essen in dieser Spielzeit ein eigenes Künstlerporträt widmet. Antonín Dvorák war es ein großes Anliegen, eine Nationalschule zu prägen und genuin tschechische Musik zu schreiben. Um Inspiration zu seiner Fünften zu schöpfen, zog er sich auf seinen Landsitz in Vysoká zurück und machte ausgedehnte Spaziergänge. Wohl auch deshalb wird diese Sinfonie oft als seine "Pastorale" bezeichnet.
