[eschiss1]

On 1 February the Alkan symphony is also part of a recital at the Barenboim-Said Akademie, Pierre-Boulez-Saal in Berlin.

Also: another rare opportunity to hear Klughardt's Schilflieder live, in a concert that also includes Juon's trio-miniatures, at Hohhaus-Palais Lauterbach, Eisenbacher Tor 1, Lauterbach, Hesse, 36341, Germany. See Bachtrack.com (this is on 25 January, 19:00 local time.)

Ah, also this. New production of Magnard's Guercœur, by the Frankfurt Opera, in Frankfurt am Main, for 8 days between Feb. 2 and Mar. 8. See their website.

Bachtrack lists a performance of Magnard's cello sonata in Wigmore Hall on 27 May, together with the first sonata of Saint-Saëns and the cello sonata of Melanie Bonis. (Incidentally her flute sonata was performed here in Ithaca last season and a trio of hers is scheduled to be performed- by a different group, I think- here in a couple of months . Quite liked the flute sonata, hoping to catch the next concert...)

Was curious whether any Reger has been programmed for this year (not unsung but arguably undersung, though I realize he is at best controversial on this forum) - his string trio no.1 is being performed at the smaller room of the Konzerthaus in Berlin on 5 April by the Vogler Quartet (with Grieg's G minor quartet and Kodály's violin & cello duo),
his early 3 choruses op.6 are in a program on March 19th at Teatro di San Carlo, Naples, with works by Elgar, Rachmaninov, Boulanger, Brahms, Ravel, Fauré, and the middle-aged Daniel Elder (b.1985) (see their schedule)...
some other works of his are in concerts too, it's true.

A few more maybe interesting concerts:

Hermann Grädener's first string quartet is featured in this Viennese concert on 7 April 2025 in the Mozart-Saal.
Intriguing chamber and song concert on 23 June at Wigmore hall with works by Mendelssohn, Franz Lachner, Louis Spohr, and others.
Speaking of Spohr one can hear his 6 German Songs (Op.103), and works by Clement, Schubert and Beethoven on 17 March at the Jupiter Symphony Chamber Players in New York City (Good Shepherd-Faith Presbyterian Church on W. 66th Street. I recommend their programs in general...)
Also at Wigmore Hall, but on 7 March (forget if this has been mentioned), a concert with cello sonatas by Godard, Fauré and Debussy...
