SUMMARY:Mizmorim Festival 2024
DESCRIPTION:In its tenth edition\, taking place January 24th–31st\, the Mizmorim Festival 2024 will be dedicated to the universal cosmos of the Psalms under the title “Tehillim”. To celebrate the festival’s tenth anniversary\, it will for the first time last an entire week and present no less than twelve concerts\, a photo exhibition\, museum tours\, a lecture\, and a late night program\, all taking place at eight different venues throughout Basel.\n\n\n\n\n\nThere are many characteristics that distinguish the great religions from each other\, but there are also some characteristics that unite them. The love of art\, poetry\, music and song\, for example\, which finds its expression in the Psalms\, is one of these uniting characteristics. The biblical book of Tehillim (Book of Psalms) contains 150 individual Mizmorim (Psalms)\, and given the inexorable connection between poetry and music\, the Mizmorim Chamber Music Festival strives to live up to its name – and to the Psalms themselves – with our 10th Anniversary Edition\, “Tehillim”. \n\n\nThe anthology of 150 psalms\, whose composition is attributed to King David and others\, is a significant part of the Jewish liturgy. The poems include songs of praise to God\, as well as accusations\, gratitude in various life situations\, and expressions of love\, anger\, despair\, and hope – themes that are significant in all religions and cultures. \n\n\nThe festival program includes well-known versions of Psalms by Orlando di Lasso\, Salomone Rossi\, Heinrich Schütz and Johann Sebastian Bach\, as well as newer versions for chamber music ensembles by various composers including Peter Eötvös\, Oliver Knussen\, Darius Milhaud and Steve Reich. The program also includes purely instrumental musical reflections\, confirming the inspiring power of these millennia-old texts. \n\nThe festival features nearly thirty first-class musicians\, ten prestigious ensembles\, two world premieres\, and several Swiss premieres. As a special highlight\, the Lucerne Festival Contemporary Orchestra (LFCO)\, led by Swiss conductor Baldur Brönnimann\, will perform Steve Reich’s work Tehillim in the Musiksaal of the Stadtcasino Basel. Other highlights of the festival include concerts with the Leipzig vocal ensemble Amarcord in the Basel Synagogue\, and the ensembles Hespèrion XXI\, the Capella Reial de Catalunya and Jordi Savall in the Martinskirche of Basel.

SUMMARY:Mizmorim Festival 2023
DESCRIPTION:From January 19th to 22nd\, 2023\, the ninth edition of the Mizmorim Kammermusik Festival 2023 follows the life stages of Theodor Herzl (1860–1904) and his “Project Blue-White”. Twelve concerts and a panel discussion will show musical works bridging the utopia and the reality of Zionism. With his publication “Der Judenstaat” (1896) and the First Zionist Congress\, which was held for the first time in Basel in 1897\, Herzl not only provided the theoretical and practical foundations for the movement for a Jewish national state\, but also placed great importance to music. \n  \n\n\nEstablished and founded in 2015 by Michal Lewkowicz\, the Mizmorim Kammermusik Festival is a multi-day classical chamber music event celebrating the diverse encounters between Jewish music and Western art music. Every year in January\, renowned artists from Switzerland and all over the world come together in Basel to present works from different epochs on a specific topic. The programs and artists take the audience on a varied journey\, discovering unknown works and new perspectives on the classics. Due to its unique concept\, the Mizmorim Chamber Music Festival has gained a special place in the Swiss cultural calendar.
