Deutsches Symphonie-Orchester Berlin, Robin Ticciati (conductor) Reinhold Messner (narrator) Frederic Wake-Walker (concept and director) Richard Strauss 1864 - 1949 Eine Alpensinfonie Berlin, Tempodrom, 2021 Recorded at Berlin's Tempodrom, the Deutsche Symphonie-Orchester Berlin and its chief conductor Robin Ticciati present Richard Strauss's "An Alpine Symphony" as a musical and philosophical mountain hike with the legendary mountaineer Reinhold Messner. The concert leads us through the Alps, lets the audience pass flowering meadows en route, through thickets and underbrush, over mountain pastures and glaciers to the summit, and finally the descent surrounded by thunderstorms. Messner provides insights into the physical and psychological borderline experiences of his mountain ascents and speaks about extreme situations, the perception of nature, and his mental state on the night before departure, during the conquest of the peak, during the long, onerous descent and the exhausted, contented return home. Directed by Andreas Morell Director: Andreas Morell. Actors: Reinhold Messner (narrator) (2021)
