Programme Note
Based on György Ligeti's “Hamburg Concerto”, Ulrich Leyendecker wrote a piece entitled “Mannheim Concerto”. The concert for “double chamber orchestra”, which can also be performed by a divided symphony orchestra, was commissioned by the Kurpfälzisches Kammerorchester Mannheim. The premiere took place on January 7th, 2007 in the Rosengarten Mannheim. The request for a “double chamber orchestra” came about because the Munich Chamber Orchestra was in addition to the Mannheimers in this concert.
