19 December 2024 Lübeck (Germany)
Drei Haselnüsse für Aschenbrödel
Orchestra - Musik- und Kongresshalle Lübeck (MUK)
Program Info: Karel Svoboda - Drei Haselnüsse für Aschenbrödel
The original film with live orchestra Who doesn't know the theme song of the Christmas classic “Three Hazelnuts for Cinderella”? For over 50 years, the fairytale heroine has been riding dreamily on her gray horse Santa Claus through snow-covered landscapes, delighting generations of viewers.
Cinderella takes her fate into her own hands, fights for great happiness and shows the prince exactly where to go right from the first encounter in the forest. Since its first broadcast in 1973, the film fairytale with its snowy backdrop and wintry-romantic atmosphere has been an integral part of the Christmas program. Once again, the beautiful Cinderella and her prince can look forward to a very special stage: For several years now, “Three Hazelnuts for Cinderella” has regularly sold out concert halls at Christmas time in German-speaking countries, whose podiums are transformed into the setting for the enchanting love story.
While the fairytale film unfolds on a large screen, the film soundtrack by Karel Svoboda is played live by a large symphony orchestra and synchronised scene by scene with the romantic and funny adventures. Shortly after the Cinderella soundtrack, Svoboda received his first orders from the West and his theme tunes for animated films such as “Maya the Bee”, “Wickie” and “Nils Holgersson” were created. But only the enchanting melody to which the princess races through the snow on her white horse can evoke such blissful feelings of happiness in the audience.
