Vivace: Tradition and new musical worlds

 

In the eyes and ears of musicians and the audience, Ruben Gazarian tapped new musical worlds – without neglecting musical heritage. After all, Beethoven remains the measure of all things musical for the WKO's artistic director. And he knows exactly how to combine the musical challenge before the concert interval with brilliant, fascinating finales. This road into the orchestra's future has been confirmed by standing ovations.

 

Fifty years and 4,200 concerts later, including nearly 900 in Heilbronn; the Württemberg Chamber Orchestra of Heilbronn – the cultural ambassador of the city and the region – nowadays enjoys an unsurpassed reputation among promoters and the audience as a dependable musical performer.
