Frischer Wind in altehrwürdiger Concertgebouw-Tradition: Die Matthäus-Passion bei den Osterfestspielen Baden-Baden
Phillip Richter

Die Osterfestspiele Baden-Baden haben sich für das diesjährige Festival neu aufgestellt. Denn im Jahr 2026 kehren die Berliner Philharmoniker mit ihrem Chefdirigenten Kirill Petrenko nach 13 glanzvollen Jahren in Baden-Baden an ihre ursprüngliche Wirkungsstätte an der Salzach, nach Salzburg, zurück. In Baden-Baden füllen dafür gleich zwei aufregende Klangkörper den Spielplan der Osterfestspiele: Das Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra aus Amsterdam für mehrere Konzertaufführungen und das Mahler Chamber Orchestra für die Neuinszenierungspremiere von Richard Wagners Lohengrin. (Rezension der Aufführung v. 30. März 2026) […]

Kovacs – Shades of Black (2015, Netherlands)

As randomly chosen by survey[1] on Mastodon, our next spotlight is on number 799 on The List, submitted by @raisedfist.

I started this draft over a week ago, wondering if I could write it without comparing this singer to another singer. But, on this side of the pond, I can barely find any info on Kovacs, i.e., Sharon Kovacs, or any reaction on this, her debut album. And so, let me just say it, knowing I mean it only as a point of reference and not to diminish the ginormous talent that is Kovacs in any way.

Imagine Amy Winehouse’s spirit, resurrected and mixed with the presence and gumption of Asajj Ventress (i.e., one of my most favorite characters in the Star Wars universe). Can you dig it? Kovacs’ soulful voice and lyrics are beautiful, powerful, sexy, cheeky, just on the edge of dangerous. In other words, I’m quite happy to have learned about this artist, I really enjoyed this album, and I’m excited to check out the rest of her work.

And, since we’re in the middle of our month-long run of #BowieADay, I think it’s worth mentioning that Kovacs is a David Bowie fan – indeed, one of the only things I could find on Kovacs is that she joined the Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra in 2023 for a special cover of Bowie’s take on Jacques Brel’s “Amsterdam” (aka “Port of Amsterdam”). For those following our BowieADay listening schedule, today we listened to his covers album, Pin Ups (1973); his cover of “Amsterdam” wasn’t included on the album proper, but was included as the B-side for the album’s “Sorrow” single. Whether before or after checking out Shades of Black, I highly recommend watching the Kovacs/Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra performance of the tune, at the end of this video (starting at 1:07:50).

Happy listening!

1. The survey choices that initially led to this spotlight were “When the weather gets rough”, “And it’s whiskey in the shade”, “It’s best to wrap your savior”, and “Up in cellophane”, following the earlier surveys that had “Well, I don’t want no Abba Zabba”/“Don’t want no Almond Joy”/“There ain’t nothing better”/“Suitable for this boy” and “Well, it’s the only thing that can pick me up”/“Better than a cup of gold”/“See only a chocolate Jesus”/“Can satisfy my soul”. The second option was the winning selection, and the survey result was translated as picking an album in The List that contained a word in the phrase – in this case, “shade”. ↩︎

Kammermusik No. 3 Op. 36 n.2 (1925)

1 Majestätisch und stark. Mäßig schnelle Achtel
2 Lebhaft und lustig
3 Sehr ruhige und gemessen schreitende Viertel
4 Mäßig bewegte Halbe. Munter, aber immer gemächlich.

#KlausMäkelä, who will become #music dir designate immediately, said in an interview that he did not think his age was relevant, noting that he had been conducting for >½ his life, beginning at 12.

“I don’t think about it. Music doesn’t really have any age,” he said.

Mäkelä, who will also take over as chief #conductor of the #RoyalConcertgebouwOrchestra in #Amsterdam in 2027, said he was joining the #Chicago #Symphony bc it has “that intensity — that same sound from the past.”
