On December 17, 2015 – at 8 pm in Munich’s Prinzregententheater – the Munich Chamber Orchestra under direction of the new Ukrainian concertmaster Diana Tishchenko will perform Karl Amadeus Hartmann’s 4th Symphony.

In an unconventional and exciting programme, Hartmann will be joined by the Concerto for String Orchestra by the Polish composer Grazyna Bacewicz (1909–1969), the Funeral music by Paul Hindemith and two Baroque compositions by Antonio Vivaldi and Luigi Boccherini. For the first time, swiss cellist Christian Poltéra is a guest at the MKO. Also present is a special cello from the workshop of Antonio Stradivari: the legendary “Mara”, which the writer Wolf Wondratschek created a literary monument for with his book “Mara”.
