Viva Vivaldi: Baroque Music Up Close at the Mercatorhalle Duisburg
On January 19, 2027, the Duisburg Philharmonic will open their rehearsal for the program Viva Vivaldi to the public. Visitors will experience a direct insight into the musical work before the 5th Philharmonic Concert – with free admission and starting at 11:30 AM.
Vivaldi’s Sound World in the Rehearsal Process
Antonio Vivaldi's music combines rhythmic impulse, virtuosic lines, and precise musical dramaturgy. In the public orchestra rehearsal, it becomes visible how individual voices create a cohesive sound image: Strings respond to each other, articulations are sharpened, and the interplay under the direction of Alessandro De Marchi takes its final shape.
Alessandro De Marchi at the Podium
The musical direction will be taken by Alessandro De Marchi, a recognized specialist in historically informed performance practice and the repertoire of Baroque and Classical music. Together with the Duisburg Philharmonic, he develops the sound of the program and provides insights into the synchronization of ensemble, dynamics, and musical rhetoric.
Valerio Losito and Joachim Held
Two more musicians are mentioned in connection with the program: Valerio Losito and Joachim Held. Losito is active as a violinist in the field of historical performance practice, while Joachim Held is known as a lutenist and guitarist for his work with Renaissance and Baroque music. Their participation refers to the colorful sound language that Vivaldi's music unfolds between solo brilliance and chamber music transparency.
A Special Look Behind the Scenes
A public rehearsal differs from the finished concert evening: The audience experiences the concentration, the acoustic fine-tuning, and the stage performance emerging in real-time. It is precisely this proximity that makes the visit a special concert experience for lovers of classical music as well as for anyone wanting to learn about the working process of an orchestra.
Conclusion: Experience Vivaldi Live and Free of Charge
Viva Vivaldi offers a focused insight into the preparation of the 5th Philharmonic Concert at the Mercatorhalle Duisburg. Those who wish to experience Baroque orchestration, vibrant audience atmosphere, and the precision of a professional orchestra up close should not miss this public rehearsal.
