Als »Schwarzbrot mit Austern und Kaviar« bezeichnete Edvard Grieg einmal seine Musik – höchst kunstvoll also, aber mit eindeutig norwegisch-folkloristischer Note. Sein Klavierkonzert verkörpert diesen einzigartigen Stil in Perfektion. Mit seinen virtuosen Klangkaskaden und träumerisch lyrischen Momenten zählt es zu den Paradestücken des jungen kanadischen Pianisten Jan Lisiecki. Umrahmt wird das Werk von zwei Kompositionen, die vom Standpunkt des 20. Jahrhunderts auf die Musik des Barock blicken. Als Rohstoff für seine Suite »Der Bürger als Edelmann« griff Richard Strauss auf höfische Unterhaltungsmusik von Jean-Baptiste Lully zurück und kleidete sie mit seinen eigenen kompositorischen Mitteln neu ein. In Ottorino Respighis Bearbeitung von Bachs Passacaglia und Fuge c-Moll entfaltet sich barocke Spiritualität in farbenprächtigen Klangfluten. Zwei unterschiedliche Ansätze, mit barocker Musiktradition umzugehen.

Edvard Grieg once described his music as »dark bread with oysters and caviar« – highly artistic, but with a distinctly Norwegian folklore note. His Piano Concerto embodies this unique style to perfection. With its virtuosic cascades of sound and dreamy, lyrical moments, it is one of the showpieces by the young Canadian pianist Jan Lisiecki. The work is framed by two compositions that look at baroque music from the point of view of the 20th century. Richard Strauss used courtly light music by Jean-Baptiste Lully as the raw material for his suite »The Citizen as Nobleman« and dressed it up anew with his own compositional means. In Ottorino Respighi's arrangement of Bach's Passacaglia and Fugue in C minor, baroque spirituality unfolds in colorful floods of sound.

Round off the concert evening in a relaxed atmosphere: different chamber music ensembles from the ranks of the Munich Philharmonic present a completely different repertoire at »Nach(t)klang«, from folk music to jazz. The next "Nach(t)klang" will take place on December 17th and 19th after the concerts in Hall E with Christmas chansons by the ensemble "GoldMund".
