The Deutsche Kammerphilharmonie Bremen and its artistic director Paavo Järvi are awarded the Rheingau Music Prize 2019. The award, initiated by the Rheingau Music Festival, will be presented for the 26th time this year and is endowed with € 10,000. The prize money will be provided by the Hessian Ministry of Science and the Arts.
The Rheingau Music Prize will be awarded to the Deutsche Kammerphilharmonie Bremen and Paavo Järvi as part of the concert with the artist in residence of the RMF Daniil Trifonov on July 12, 2019 at the Kurhaus Wiesbaden.
The Deutsche Kammerphilharmonie Bremen is a unique phenomenon in the cultural landscape: it fills concert halls all over the world, inspires audiences with its stirring style of music-making, organizes itself democratically and finances itself predominantly on its own. The orchestra was founded in 1980 by music students, and today it is a figurehead: for classical music, for the city of Bremen - but also for entrepreneurial spirit and social commitment. Paavo Järvi and Die Deutsche Kammerphilharmonie Bremen have made interpretation history with their groundbreaking projects on the symphonies of Beethoven, Schumann and Brahms. In 2016 the ensemble was awarded the title "Orchestra of the Year" by Deutschlandfunk Kultur.
The Deutsche Kammerphilharmonie Bremen is the first orchestra in residence at the Rheingau Music Festival to present all its abilities in four concerts with music from Bach to Tchaikovsky. The orchestra comes to the festival with outstanding soloists who have long had musical partnerships with the top ensemble from Bremen: The Deutsche Kammerphilharmonie will meet the artist in residence Daniil Trifonov (12.7.) at the concert opening. On the second evening of the Residence, Gabriela Montero and Igor Levit will be on stage together with the orchestra (14.8.). Hilary Hahn also plays with the Deutsche Kammerphilharmonie Bremen (22.8.). In December the Deutsche Kammerphilharmonie returns to the festival with Igor Levit. (5.12.)
