Fabulous Sound Worlds at the Congress Center in the Park
On Tuesday, November 17, 2026, the Augsburg Philharmonic Orchestra invites you to the 2nd Symphony Concert of the 2026/27 season at the Congress Center in the Park. Under the title »Fabulous«, the concert connects Finnish mythology, romantic virtuosity, and fairy-tale ballet music for a colorful evening with great orchestral impact.
Between Nature Mystery and Fairy Tale World
Jean Sibelius opens the program with »The Swan of Tuonela«. Dark string textures, mysterious sound colors, and an almost ethereal atmosphere lead into a Nordic mythology. Sibelius made nature itself a musical experience and shaped it into an urgent, poetic orchestral landscape.
Tianwa Yang Interprets Tchaikovsky's Violin Concerto
The focus is on Pyotr Tchaikovsky's Violin Concerto in D major Op. 35. The Artist in Residence Tianwa Yang takes on the solo part and encounters a work full of lyrical melodies, brilliant solo passages, and emotional tension. The stage performance requires technical precision, expressive phrasing, and close synchronization between violin and orchestra.
Prokofiev's »Cinderella« Brings Movement to the Concert Stage
Sergei Prokofiev's excerpts from the three ballet suites of »Cinderella« conclude the evening. His music portrays characters, conflicts, and transformations with sharp rhythmic sensitivity and orchestral fantasy. Dancing motifs, pointed instrumentation, and surprising sound changes bring the fairy tale to life even without a stage set.
Conducting and Live Atmosphere
The musical direction is taken by Domonkos Héja. Together with the Augsburg Philharmonic, he creates a program that shifts between mysterious sound poetry, romantic concerto, and colorful ballet music. In the concert hall, a live atmosphere arises in which acoustics, light, and audience mood enhance the dramatic effect of the works.
Conclusion: An Evening Full of Fantasy
»Fabulous« promises a diverse concert experience for friends of classical music: Nordic nature images, Tchaikovsky's virtuosic violin concerto, and Prokofiev's fairy-tale sound language meet the precision of a large symphony orchestra. Anyone wishing to experience orchestral colors, strong soloists, and musical storytelling live should mark this evening at the Congress Center in the Park.
