Wurde hier früher, standesgemäß, wie man dachte, zu Silvester die Neunte von Beethoven als Signum des tradierten Humanismus aufgeführt, pflanzte Metzmacher, ganz entschieden ein Verfechter der Moderne, an dessen Stelle ein Konzert mit dem anspielungsreichen und durchaus ironisch-provokativ gemeinten Titel "Who is Afraid of 20th Century Music?", in dem Werke zeitgenössischer Komponisten erklangen - jedoch nicht ohne zuvor erläuternd dem Publikum nahe gebracht worden zu sein. [G] If before, in keeping with one's station, as was thought, Beethoven's Ninth used to be performed on New Year's Eve as a seal of traditional humanism, Metzmacher, a very decided advocate of the modern, planted in its place a concert with the allusive and quite ironic-provocative title 'Who is Afraid of 20th Century Music?', and let ring out works of contemporary composers - although not before providing explanatory commentaries which conveyed an appreciation of the pieces to the public.
