Between melancholy, farewell, and radiant tones, that special intensity unfolds for which Schubert is revered to this day. In the intimate setting of a song evening, a live atmosphere is created that makes every nuance audible.

A historical place for great emotions

The magnificent interior design gives the evening a rare depth: when voice and piano fill the space, a mixture of closeness and grandeur is created that makes classical concerts unforgettable. The interplay of sound, light, and architectural elegance becomes part of the musical narrative here.

An evening for an audience with a fine sense

The event is part of the GLUCK FESTIVAL, which stands for artistic excellence and historically informed programming. With Swan Song, the focus is on the lyrical power of the repertoire, on dynamic arcs, careful orchestration in the pianistic sense, and the immediate impact of vocal expression. Those who love song art will experience a concert experience here with special density and emotional precision.
