Music with historical depth

The evening focuses on the intimate power of the art song: Students from the song classes of HfM Karlsruhe, along with Alexander Fleischer on piano, will present a program that brings the romantic expressiveness into the acoustically approachable space of the Wahnfried House. The combination of scientifically curated moderation, musical direction, and emerging voices adds extra excitement to the concert experience.

A place that breathes sound history

The Wahnfried House is not just any event space, but the authentic core of the Richard Wagner Museum, where Wagner's life and impact have been conveyed for decades. The museum is regarded as a shaping cultural space of the festival city of Bayreuth and provides an immediate atmosphere that makes song interpretation particularly close, concentrated, and emotional.

Anniversary with resonance

“50/150 – Utopia and Echo” stands for a program that not only exhibits Bayreuth's Wagner heritage but also continues it sonically. The series intertwines projection, reflection, and resonance into an evening that highlights musical orchestration in a smaller format, stylistic refinement, and live atmosphere. Especially in the song evening, the tension between text, voice, and piano unfolds with particular intensity.
