Portraitkonzert: Fantastische Geschwister – Carolin und Jörg Widmann

Carolin and Jörg Widmann are among the most outstanding siblings in the international music world. With their extraordinary talents and artistic versatility, they have had a significant influence on musical life for around three decades. In their joint projects, the siblings combine their individual strengths and regularly invite high-calibre musicians from the international chamber music scene. Supported by established string quartets and other renowned guests, they create programmes that span two centuries of music history and include both classical and contemporary works. Their concerts range from dense chamber music quartets to solo concerts with a large string orchestra.
