After the grand symphony concert in the morning, the festive anniversary day of the State Youth Symphony Orchestra of Hesse comes to a conclusion in the afternoon. The moderated chamber concert bridges the generations and reflects on the 50-year history of the ensemble.
The focus is a moderated time travel that takes the audience through five decades of orchestra life. Between the musical pieces, anecdotes and reflections provide exciting insights into the development of the LJSO from its beginnings in 1976 to the present.
Outstanding ensembles closely connected to the history of the orchestra will perform on stage. The award-winning Amelio Trio, made up of three former LJSO members, returns to its roots for this anniversary. The current orchestra will be represented, among others, by a brass quintet that has just been awarded the highest score and a 1st prize in the national competition "Jugend musiziert."
Another highlight is a string octet specially assembled for the anniversary, featuring four current members, who were also awarded the highest score at the national competition "Jugend musiziert," performing together with four alumni, who today work among others in the Frankfurt Opera and Museum Orchestra as well as at the Frankfurt University of Music and Performing Arts.
Concert duration: approx. 80 minutes without intermission
Doors open: 2:30 PM
