Improvisations on Debussy, Stravinsky, Vitali and Poulenc
Saturday, 02/07/2026 19:00 HfMT, Mendelssohn-Saal

The Berlin impromptu orchestra always plays without a conductor, sheet music or chairs; the musicians use the resulting freedom for improvisation, movement and "recomposition". Despite - or perhaps because of - its unconventional approach, the orchestra remains at the heart of classical music practice even after ten years.
For the first time, the Hamburg HfMT is now cooperating with the Stegreif Orchester from Berlin: over the course of a semester, students will take part in three two-day workshops with musicians from the Stegreif Orchester and thus be introduced to what is possible in the field of classical music practice. The results are presented to the public in a final concert at the Hamburg University of Music and Drama. The project is also the subject of an accompanying musicology research project (Prof. Dr. Jutta Toelle).
