Unter der Leitung ihres Chefdirigenten Philippe Jordan, begehen die Wiener Symphoniker einen der Höhepunkte ihres Saisonschwerpunkts zu Hector Berlioz. Die bekannteste der Kompositionen von Berlioz, die Symphonie fantastique, gilt als einer der ersten Vertreter der Programmmusik. Berlioz hielt sich dabei an die Struktur des klassischen Dramas und verfasste die im Untertitel ausgewiesene Episode aus dem Leben eines Künstlers in fünf Teilen. Darin verarbeitete er die noch unerwiderte Liebe zur britischen Schauspielerin Harriet Smithson. Erst mit der Komposition des als Fortsetzung der Symphonie fantastique angesehenen lyrischen Melodrams Lélio ou Le Retour à la Vie erreichte Berlioz seine Angebetete. Die Ehe hielt jedoch lediglich ein knappes Jahrzehnt. Anders als die weltberühmte Symphonie fantastique präsentieren die Symphoniker mit Lélio eine wahre Rarität, die erst in den letzten Jahren wieder als Ergänzung zur übermächtigen großen Schwester zu hören ist.

Deutsch

Under the direction of its principal conductor Philippe Jordan, the Wiener Symphoniker will present one of the highlights of its seasonal focus on Hector Berlioz. The best-known composition by Berlioz, Symphonie fantastique, is considered one of the first representatives of programme music. There, Berlioz followed the structure of the classical drama and wrote the Episode in the Life of an Artist, in Five Parts, as specified in the subtitle. In this work, he tried to come to terms with his love, still unrequited, for the British actress Harriet Smithson. Berlioz only reached his beloved after the composition of the lyrical melodrama Lélio, ou le retour à la vie, considered to be a sequel to Symphonie fantastique. The marriage, however, lasted only a little more than a decade. Contrary to the world-famous Symphonie fantastique, with Lélio, the Wiener Symphoniker will present a real rarity which is only heard again in the last few years as a supplement to its superior big sister.
