Christian Badzura)Johann Sebastian Bach | Klavierkonzert f-Moll BWV 1056Johann Sebastian Bach | Adagio ? aus: Violinsonate f-Moll BWV 1018 (Arr. Víkingur Ólafsson)Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart | Serenade c-Moll KV 388 (»Nachtmusique«)Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart | Klavierkonzert c-Moll KV 491 Víkingur Ólafsson, aktueller »Artist in Residence« des hr-Sinfonieorchesters Frankfurt und seines Zeichens ein Ausnahme-Künstler, kann man in diesem Konzert besonders intensiv erleben: von Bach über Mozart bis Philip Glass. »Der isländische Pianist ist eines der unerwarteten Klassik-Phänomene der jüngsten Zeit«, attestiert Die Welt, die sein Bach-Spiel so beschreibt: »Sehnig, mit Kraft wie Leichtigkeit, auf ein Ziel zentriert, ohne Hast. Als mathematischen Vorgang wie eine scheinbar freie Improvisation.« Als Bach-Pianist hat sich der Isländer einen Namen gemacht, Bach steht auch auf seinem Programm im hr-Sendesaal. »Man muss Bach nicht neu erfinden, man muss nur manchmal wieder deutlich machen, wie er ohne Perücke klingt,« sagt Víkingur Ólafsson, der dafür die Musik des Barockmeisters gerne mit der des Meister der Minimal Music Philip Glass kombiniert ? »ich finde den Kontrast reizvoll und naheliegend«, so Ólafsson. Als das reizvollste der Mozart-Klavierkonzerte empfindet der 37-Jährige das in c-Moll, KV 491: »Das Werk ist wie ein Universum. Es existiert alles darin. Man fühlt die Romantik, die Klassik und den Barock. Der Anfang ist vermutlich die ungemütlichste Musik, die Mozart je komponiert hat, und ich liebe es, wenn er das tut. Denn so perfekt harmonisch, wie seine Werke klingen können, so unheimlich konnte Mozart komponieren.« Konzertdauer: ca. 80 Minuten___________Víkingur Ólafsson, current »Artist in Residence« of the Frankfurt Radio Symphony and an exceptional artist in his own right, can be experienced particularly intensively in this concert: from Bach to Mozart to Philip Glass. »The Icelandic pianist is one of the most unexpected classical phenomena of recent times,« attests Die Welt, which describes his Bach playing thus: »Sinewy, with power as well as lightness, centred on a goal, without haste. As mathematical a process as an apparently free improvisation.« The Icelander has made a name for himself as a Bach pianist, and Bach is also on his programme in the hr-Sendesaal. »You don´t have to reinvent Bach, you just have to make it clear again sometimes how he sounds without a wig,« says Víkingur Ólafsson, who likes to combine the music of the baroque master with that of the master of minimal music Philip Glass for this purpose ? »I find the contrast appealing and obvious,« says Ólafsson. The 37-year-old finds the Mozart piano concerto in C minor, KV 491, the most appealing: »The work is like a universe. Everything exists in it. You feel the romantic, the classical and the baroque. The beginning is probably the most uncomfortable music Mozart ever composed, and I love it when he does that. Because as perfectly harmonious as his works can sound, Mozart could compose in such an uncanny way.«Concert duration: about 80 minutes- Shop: Konzertkasse

The local glassworks is about to be sold, and rumor has it the buyer wants to make changes that will challenge glassblowing tradition.

Dazzle Patterns , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 698min
Halifax, 1917. Clare Holmes, a flaw checker at the local glassworks, is saving up for passage to England, to work for the Red Cross and be near her fiancé, Leo, who is fighting in France. But one normal Thursday morning, a deadly explosion in the Halifax harbour shatters the city - and Clare is caught up in the blast. As Clare struggles to recover from her injuries, she stumbles upon the School of Art, where she finds solace in drawing, and a mentor who encourages Clare’s burgeoning artistic ambitions. But how can one be an artist when the whole world has gone mad? When her own city is half-destroyed? When she’s not sure if Leo will ever come home? Meanwhile the city, weary from the seemingly endless war and torn apart by the devastating explosion, is wracked with fear and mistrust of foreigners. Clare’s new friend Fred, a glassmaker from Germany, is pulled into a web of suspicion, causing Clare to question everything she thought she knew. Dazzle Patterns is an unforgettable story about resilience, art, and the casualties of war, abroad and at home. With extraordinary vision and clarity, Alison Watt’s remarkable debut novel brings the past to life. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Erin Moon.

A City Killing: A BBC Radio 4 dramatisation, Hörbuch, Digital, 43min
A BBC Radio 4 drama about three City traders who launch an aggressive new hedge fund, which they then struggle to prevent from complete failure. Tim, Meredith and Harry are three sassy, 30 something traders who, tired of making money for someone else, combine to launch a new hedge fund. But it doesn't take long before they get seriously above themselves, losing a small fortune and making some pretty heavy enemies in the City markets. Facing financial meltdown, Harry is deputed to exploit a family connection with Bob Glass of Glassworks. Glass is the doyen of Wall Street - friend to charities and movie stars and the biggest, boldest, safest investor on the block. In New York, Harry makes a good impression. Glass takes to him like a son. This is the coup the young hedge fund has needed. With Glass' name, confidence will flourish and further, major investments will follow. But Harry has no sooner touched down at Heathrow, than news breaks of Glass' arrest by the FBI. His convoluted investment structure has collapsed. Billions have been lost by individuals, by charities and by burgeoning hedge funds, just like Harry's. Harry, Tim and Meredith have lost 1.2billion and rising. Glass, the most feared, loathed and admired man on Wall Street was just a simple confidence trickster, though on a mammoth scale. Now it's time to face the investors, and the fact that their credibility is virtually nil. This is a £1.2billion hole they aren't going to crawl out of. A City Killing stars Nicholas Boulton as Harry Towers, Nathan Osgood as Bob Glass, David Tse as Tim and Janice Acquah as Meredith. Also featured in the cast are Pam Miles, Jonathan Tafler and Sam Dale. Language: English. Narrator: Nicholas Boulton, David Tse, Full Cast.
