Hibiki Oshima was born in Yokohama. At the early age of eleven, she had made up her mind to get to know Europe and its culture, and a year later she had the chance to implement this plan on a lengthy journey. These impressions led her to enrol at the Vienna University of Music and Performing Arts after completing her secondary education. There, her teachers included Rainer Küchl, Johannes Meissl and Avedis Kouyoumdjian. She has performed at numerous music festivals, including Wien Modern, the Pacific Music Festival, the Bienal Musica Hoje and ECMA in Switzerland. She completed her education by taking courses with Gerhard Schulz, Anner Bylsma, Hatto Beyerle and Heime Müller. In 2006/07 Hibiki Oshima was a fellow of the Herbert von Karajan Centre. She won the First Prize at the Chamber Music Competition Pietro Argento as well as the Second Prize and special prize at the Premio Internazionale di Musica “G. Zinetti”. In addition, she received the Eduard Söring Prize of the Foundation for the Support of the Hamburg State Opera in 2011. Her passion for chamber music and contemporary music led her to join ensembles such as the Hibiki Quartet and the Ensemble Platypus, with which she has presented numerous world premieres by young composers. After an engagement as First Concertmaster with the Württembergische Philharmonie Reutlingen, she has been section leader of the second violins of the Hamburg Philharmonic State Orchestra since 2010. When she is not playing the violin, she likes to cook and dedicates herself to her secret passion, paragliding.
Thomas Tyllack was born in Munich, where he studied cello with Fritz Kiskalt. In 1982 he completed his bachelor’s degree with distinction, followed two years later by a postgraduate degree. Thomas Tyllack was a member of the World Youth Orchestra and participated in the Menuhin Academy in Gstaad. He attended master courses with Radu Aldulescu and the Alban Berg Quartet. In 1984 he was appointed principal cellist at the Deutsche Oper am Rhein in Duisburg. Since 1986 he has been principal cellist of the Hamburg Philharmonic State Orchestra. In addition to his love for orchestral playing for the opera and concert stage, he dedicates himself intensely to chamber music. He greatly enjoys passing on his knowledge and skills to his students.
In order to bring not only the great symphonic works but also smaller chamber orchestra pieces to the stage, the director of the Felix Mendelssohn Youth Orchestra (MJO), Prof. Clemens Malich, established the Moses Mendelssohn Chamber Orchestra (MKO) in 2019. Rarely performed or almost forgotten works, such as those by composer Joseph Boulogne, are particularly dear to this orchestra.
The orchestra rehearses as needed and on a project basis in a fixed chamber orchestra formation. In this way, the nearly 20 selected musicians are able to quickly develop new pieces and bring them to the stage.
Outstanding in the first year of existence were performances with the Bundesjugendballett (BJB) under the artistic direction of John Neumeier, both in the Hamburg club Gruenspan and on the main stage of the Hamburg State Opera. In the following season, the MKO was a guest at the Thalia Theater and performed on stage together with the ensemble members of the "Embassy of Hope" and the Thalia Theater on the occasion of the 40th anniversary of the UN Refugee Aid.
In addition to Prof. Clemens Malich, Solveigh Rose (Philharmonic State Orchestra Hamburg) and Michael Holm (Youth Chamber Music Initiative Hamburg) also work intensively with the young people.
The Philharmonic Academy 2023 puts a special focus on the connection between old and new, known and unknown, on the spirits of the past in harmony with the sounds of the future. In the 4th Academy Concert, very different coping potentials inherent in music in the field of tension of its respective present are revealed. Thus the bombastic film music sounds of Franz Waxman, who has quite unjustly fallen into oblivion, are combined with the so fundamentally humanistic sound ideals of Johann Sebastian Bach and his son Carl Philipp Emanuel Bach. With Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy and Camille Saint-Saëns, we move into Romanticism and thus to the fraternization of nature and man, before Mieczysław Weinberg's music tells of the existential power of art in times of crisis. Conducted by Clemens Malich, the Felix Mendelssohn Youth Orchestra (2nd half of the concert) and the Moses Mendelssohn Chamber Orchestra (1st half of the concert), part of The Young ClassX, will perform. This unique initiative by the Otto Group and the Salut Salon ensemble allows children and young people to immerse themselves in the wonderful world of music in a variety of ways. In the process, they play side by side with experienced musicians who help them conquer the boards that mean the world.
In cooperation with "The Young ClassX"
Venue: Laeiszhalle, Grand Hall, Johannes-Brahms-Platz 20355 Hamburg
