the content

This season, too, an unusual and personal programme will be presented under the title "Spotlights": musicians of the orchestra will play works that are particularly close to their hearts. The programme ranges from world-famous pieces of the chamber music repertoire to real rarities that are hardly ever heard in the concert hall. Listen to favourite pieces, rarities and evergreens, including works by Bohuslav Martinů, Ernest Chausson and Rebecca Clarke.

Adventskalender im Foyer: Das 2. Fensterchen

Today in the Rangfoyer on the right: ‘Mozart for violin and piano’
with Maïlis Bonnefous and Maxime Perrin
5:00 p.m. / Rang-Foyer rechts
Duration: approx. 25 minutes / Free admission


This afternoon in the Rangfoyer, you can experience two young French artists, our former violin academy student Maïlis Bonnefous and our solo repetiteur Maxime Perrin at the grand piano, who will play some Christmas carols for you, along with Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart's Sonata for Violin and Piano in F major, K. 376. The piano and violin communicate with each other lightly and gracefully, as equal musical partners in the movement. This is because the composer shifted his aesthetic premises from the accompanied solo movement to a balance of both instruments. This sonata was part of a cycle of six works that Mozart dedicated to his student Josepha Auernhammer. An unknown critic praised the wealth of ‘new ideas and traces of great musical genius (...) In addition, the accompaniment of the violin with the piano part is so skilfully combined that both instruments are maintained in constant attention’. Today, look forward to this musical dialogue between Maïlis Bonnefous and Maxim Perrin.

Born in 1992, the young French violinist Maïlis Bonnefous initially completed her musical training at the Toulouse Conservatory in 2011 before moving on to the Berlin University of the Arts and then to the Leipzig University of Music for her master's degree. Alongside her studies, she was the section leader of the second violins in the French Youth Orchestra from 2009 to 2013, was an academy musician with the Orchestre national du Capitole de Toulouse in 2011, played in the Gustav Mahler Youth Orchestra from 2013 to 2015, and was an academy musician in the orchestra of the Deutsche Oper Berlin between 2015 and 2017. She regularly performs in concerts of the Karajan Academy of the Berliner Philharmoniker and was a scholarship holder of the Balthasar Neumann Ensemble between 2018 and 2020. She is the winner of numerous competitions.

The French pianist Maxime Perrin (1988) has been an accompanist at the Deutsche Oper Berlin since 2020. His piano studies initially took him to the University of Music and Theatre in Leipzig to study with Prof. Markus Tomas (piano) and Prof. Phillip Moll (song interpretation), and then to the University of Music in Hanover. He attended numerous masterclasses, including with Emmanuel Ax, Andrzej Jasinski, Alexandre Tharaud and Philippe Cassard. During the course of his career, he has performed as a soloist, chamber musician and song accompanist in Germany, France, Austria and Switzerland. In 2013, he was awarded a scholarship by the Richard Wagner Association of Hannover and accepted as a pianist into the Junge Deutsche Philharmonie. With this orchestra, he has already performed at the Berlin Philharmonie and the Alte Oper Frankfurt.
