Info for Strauss

"Unter der Leitung ihres Chefdirigenten Toshiyuki Kamioka spielt die Kopenhagener Philharmonie drei der funkelndsten Partituren von Richard Strauss: das Oboenkonzert mit dem Solisten Andreas Fosdal, das erste Hornkonzert, gespielt von Jakob Keiding, und die Suite aus Der Bürger als Edelmann. Strauss' Oboenkonzert besteht aus drei nahtlos ineinander übergehenden Sätzen: Ein pastoraler Anfang mit kunstvollen Oboenlinien führt zu einem strahlenden langsamen Satz und einem virtuosen Finale. Strauss' berühmter Horn spielender Vater inspirierte ihn zu seinem ersten Hornkonzert, das seine offensichtliche Vorliebe für den ungehemmten, bukolischen Charakter des Horns offenbart, wenn es die Orchesterfarben durchschneidet. Strauss' Musik zu Der Bürger als Edelmann (basierend auf der Molière-Lully-Kollaboration Le bourgeois gentilhomme aus dem 17. Jahrhundert) ist ein frühes Beispiel des Neoklassizismus und wurde ursprünglich komponiert, um unmittelbar vor seiner Oper Ariadne auf Naxos aufgeführt zu werden. Das Ergebnis ist ein typisches Strauss'sches Werk, das Lyrik und Humor vereint.

Toshiyuki Kamioka
was born in Tokyo, where he studied conducting, composition, the piano and the violin at the National University of Fine Arts & Music. In 1982, he was awarded the coveted Ataka Prize and two years later received a Rotary International Fellowship to attend the Hamburg Conservatory where he studied conducting under Klauspeter Seibel.

During season 1985/6 he has been a korrepetitor in Hoofstad Operette Amsterdam. He was a korrepetitor and conductor at Theater Kiel between 1987 and 1992, where he gained his first theatre experience as répétiteur for soloists and as Kapellmeister at the Städtische Bühnen.

By 1987, he had become a lecturer in chamber music and accompaniment at the Hamburg Conservatory and, in the 2000/01 season, he stood in as professor of the opera classes at the Frankfurt-am-Main Conservatory. Since the autumn of 2004, he has been working as professor of conducting at the Saar Conservatory (HfM Saar) in Saarbrücken.

From 1992 to 1996, Toshiyuki Kamioka was the lead Kapellmeister at the Aalto Theater in Essen. Between 1996 and 2004, he held the post of general music director at the Hessisches Staatstheater in Wiesbaden. During the eight seasons from 1998 to 2006, Toshiyuki Kamioka was Chief conductor of the Nordwestdeutsche Philharmonie in Herford, at the same time he was invited to tour regularly in Germany and abroad. Concerts with ensembles such as the NHK Symphony Orchestra in Tokyo and the Bamberg Symphony Orchestra have gained him an international reputation. Press and public heap equal praise on his highly musical and sophisticated interpretations. Aside from his commitments as conductor, Toshiyuki Kamioka also continues to delight audiences with his subtle interpretations and virtuosity as a piano soloist.

Maestro Kamioka was the general music director of the Wuppertal Symphony Orchestra (WSO) from the 2004/05 season onwards. In 2009/10 he changed position to become chief conductor and artistic director. Between 2014 and 2016 he held the intendant position in Theater Wuppertal.

Under his baton, the WSO has developed considerably, both musically and technically, leading to regular invitations to appear in Milan. Building on its’ successful nine-day concert tour in Japan in 2007, the orchestra returned there for a further, more extensive visit in October 2010. During this stay of fourteen days, the orchestra had ten concerts in nine cities, such as Tokyo, Yokohama, Fukushima, Nagoya and Fukuoka. In August 2011 the WSO gave its debut with Toshiyuki Kamioka in a sold out performance in the Concertgebouw Amsterdam where they were joined by Tzimon Barto at the piano playing Johannes Brahms’ Piano Concert No 1.

Toshiyuki Kamioka had simultaneously acted as the general music director of the Saarländisches Staatstheater in Saarbrücken since the 2009/10 season. He joined the New Japan Philharmonic as Artistic Advisor in April 2015, and has been appointed the NJP’s Music Director in September 2016.
