for the First time, the BR-Symphony orchestra holds the end of the year, the ARD – with a kind of precious-Kurkonzert. The Criticism.

Munich – The best news first: The man from the front row again. Both of the cufflinks, he was asked previously in a rescue operation by the Moderator. Thomas Gottschalk, sleeves with open shirt ten minutes before the start of the Live broadcast at the Herkules hall of the stage, the tastes of prehistoric “Wetten, dass…?”-Times, as the chief always took even the Warm-up. The Gag with the helpless Entertainer and the erroneous clothes is allegedly fixed, but it makes the mood.

the fall of blonde, is an excellent fit to the ARD-new year’s eve concert, better than the day before, not only hüftsteife Sky du Mont in the ZDF-competitive event. Gottschalk can also joke seriously. And that he – dropped, as before, the “Candide”Overture just once – from the same Generation such as Lenny Bernstein, Born in 1918, comes to believe it. The program, for the first time by the Symphony orchestra of the Bavarian radio with Mariss Jansons denied, requires a stomach bitter. A wild hunt through the appetizers charts. What doesn’t fit, is forced.

This is (almost) everything straight Jansons-food. Anyone who has experienced the BR-Symphony orchestra on tour, understands that their usual encores, for the first time experience the entire evening. But, and this addition raises the 90 minutes over the Kurkonzert, so sparkly and in a double sense waxed from the jewelry box. In the “Valse triste” of Sibelius, about the high school in the strings-uniformity will be demonstrated, dvo?ák’s 15. Slavonic dance ignites as parallel fireworks batteries, Brahms’ fifth Hungarian dance also works as a Terminator Version.

With Lang Lang in the kitsch region

Some of the region drifts into Kitsch. Not the Blue and red light, the churching hall, Hercules hall wants to put a TV kralbet Studio, but, for example, Debussy’s “Clair de Lune” in an obese Arrangement by Leopold Stokowski and another Star. Lang Lang, the two slow piano concert in controls. The Andante from Mozart’s KV 467 plus the Adagio from the “Yellow River Concerto” by Xian Xinghau (1905-1945), and you don’t know whether the creep in the smallest of musical ramifications is honestly felt, or just a Pose.

was Actually Lang Lang for the Vorkonzert on 30. December provided. After the Chinese liked only occur at the turn of the year, he had previously from the South Korean Seong-Jin Cho represented. Why the need for a (more expensive) soloist has been used, is not evident to the enjoyment of the Evening. And Lang Lang’s encore, Chopin’s Grand Valse brilliant, shows: he is not after his forced break on the dam.

Jansons, in the summer of a dangerous Virus infection, haunted, familiar, sometimes with a casual blow to his precious orchestra. The instrumental virtuoso, a beautiful, descriptive phrase, is not bought, but home equity: concert master Anton Barakhovsky gets to Ligeti’s “Concert românesc” legitimate cheering. The Abmoderation to the regular broadcasting time. Punctuality under duress – Gottschalk had to be more to the Bayern-1-new year’s eve party.
