Thielemann starts with Levit in the State Opera: a musical festival!

The Berlin State Opera was the scene of a special event on Monday evening when Christian Thielemann celebrated his inaugural concert as the new general music director. With star pianist Igor Levit, he brings a top-class guest musician. The event can be understood as a prelude to a new era in the renowned cultural institution.

The inaugural concert included a carefully selected program with works from high and late romanticism as well as contemporary pieces. Levit interpreted the second piano concert by the well -known composer Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy (1809–1847). In addition, there were other important compositions on the program, including Arnold Schönberg's sound direction "Pelleas and Melisande" and "Elysium", a work by the Canadian composer Samy Moussa.

Christian Thielemann and his role

Christian Thielemann, who previously worked as the chief conductor of the Saxon State Chapel Dresden, took over the position of the general music director after Daniel Barenboim, for health reasons. Despite his health difficulties, Barenboim is expected at the event. A spokeswoman said that he would be "good", which will hopefully be positive.

Thielemann's start in the State Opera is more than just a personal event; It indicates possible changes in the artistic profile of the institution. He brings his extensive experience and style, which will certainly develop in the upcoming performances. In addition, another concert with the same program in the Philharmonie is planned for Tuesday, October 8th, which will increase the expectations for this week in the city.

The evening in the State Opera is an important musical highlight that combines both tradition and innovation. Thielemann's commitment could blow a breath of fresh air and raise the artistic ambitions of the State Opera to a new level. The audience may be excited to see which impulses the new general music director will set and which new performances can be expected in the future.
