BR-KLASSIK – My music

Celebrity guests and their favorite music

Prominent guests come to the studio and bring their favorite CDs. In conversation with BR-KLASSIK moderators, they reveal a lot of personal things – guaranteed to be more exciting than any TV talk show.

She is a violinist and festival director. One could also say that Franziska Hölscher collects festivals. In addition to the chamber music series “Klangbrücken” in the Konzerthaus Berlin, she has been leading the Musiktage Feldafing together with pianist Kit Armstrong since 2021, until last year also the Chamber Music Days in Mettlach in Saarland and this year for the first time the Franconian Summer. All this in addition to an intensive concert and teaching activity as a teacher.
She always seems perfectly balanced, even relaxed, when you meet her. This is probably the only way to create such a comprehensive and responsible workload. Especially in the first year as festival director of the Franconian Summer, which she only knew from the planning. A festival that has set itself the task of bringing classical music to the Middle Franconia region for many eventful years of its existence. Franziska Hölscher also wants to make the concert in the region an experience and invites you to 21 concerts in churches, halls, parks and even on a ship on the Brombachsee from June 16th to August 27th.

It will be interesting to find out from her whether she is still so calm and relaxed shortly before the start of her newcomer to the festival, or whether a certain tension is spreading through her. For the first time she will finally meet her new Franconian audience with her series between Feuchtwangen and Erlangen, Rothenburg od Tauber and Nuremberg. In view of her intensive concert activities, she is by no means lacking in exciting and top-class artists in her first program. Franziska Hölscher has a large network. You know each other and have often given concerts together. This is how artist friendships develop, which significantly simplify the life of a concert planner.
With such a rich artistic activity, Ursula Adamski-Störmer is excited to talk to the violinist about her favorite music and whether perhaps one or the other piece will also be found in the Franconian Summer.
