Die Saite – das „Stimmband“ des Instruments

Größer als man vermutet ist die Wirkung der Saiten auf den Klang und die Spieleigenschaften eines Violoncellos. Vergleichbar mit unseren Stimmbändern tragen sie wesentlich zur Ausdrucksfähigkeit und -stärke des Instruments bei. Wie man durch gezielte Wahl der vier Saiten den Instrumentklang beeinflussen und optimieren kann, erläutert und demonstriert Dr.-Ing. Thomas Zwieg von Larsen Strings A/S. Ein spannendes Thema, nicht nur für Fachleute!

Katastrophe oder Chance?

Die Quellenlage der Suiten für Violoncello solo von J. S. Bach

Die sechs Solosuiten von Bach gehören zu den Werken, die jeden Cellisten ein Leben lang begleiten. Warum aber sind so viele unterschiedliche Ausgaben dieses Klassikers auf dem Markt? Dr. Norbert Müllemann, Cheflektor des G. Henle Verlags, bringt Licht ins Dunkel der Quellenlage. Ist die problematische Überlieferung der Suiten für den heutigen Cellisten nicht vielleicht gerade eine Chance?

Presentation

Digitale Selbstdarstellung für Musiker

Was muss ich für Künstlerfotos machen? Brauche ich eine Website, Facebook und Instagram? Mancher junge Musiker fühlt sich vielleicht etwas verloren bei Themen wie Marketing und Social Media PR, die mittlerweile auch in der Klassik unerlässlich sind. Julia Kadar vermittelt Grundlagen, wie man sich auch auf der Online-Bühne erfolgreich präsentieren kann.
