Chopin Poetry and Beethoven's Passion: A Piano Evening that Enchants Augsburg

The internationally performing pianist Sachiko Furuhata will perform on Saturday, May 30, 2026, at the Small Golden Hall in Augsburg. The program includes touching nocturnes and brilliant études by Frédéric Chopin as well as two iconic Beethoven sonatas. An evening that unites sound culture, virtuosity, and great emotions – in the baroque Rococo jewel with excellent acoustics.

Golden Sound Space, Strong Feelings

The Small Golden Hall is known for its clear projection and fine reverberation structure – ideal conditions for an intimate concert experience. When Furuhata's singing touch illuminates the nocturnes and the famous Revolutionary Etude ignites, a live atmosphere is created in which every nuance counts and every breath is audible.

Program with Dramatic Orchestration

The first part is dedicated to the lyrical and brilliant facets of Chopin: Nocturne in C-sharp minor op. posth. BI 49, Nocturne in E-flat major op. 9/2, Nocturne in D-flat major op. 27/2, Étude in E major op. 10/3, Étude in C-sharp minor op. 10/4, Étude in C minor op. 10/12 'Revolutionary Étude', along with the dramatic Scherzo No. 2 in B-flat minor op. 31. After the intermission, Beethoven unfolds his full range: the Moonlight Sonata op. 27/2 in glassy transparency and the energetic Waldstein Sonata op. 53 with gripping thematic development and fiery coda.

Expertise on World Stages

Furuhata, born in Yokohama, made her debut at Carnegie Hall in New York in 2017. Since then, she has performed at venues including the Herbst Theatre San Francisco, Usher Hall Edinburgh, Gewandhaus Leipzig, Berliner Philharmonie, and Laeiszhalle Hamburg. As a soloist, she has played with renowned orchestras; awards and international invitations attest to her artistic authority and stage performance.

Stage Performance that Moves

Transparent sound, colorful phrasing, and confident synchronization of both hands – Furuhata's playing connects technical precision with narrative breath. The dynamic range of her interpretation makes the architectural structure of the movements audible, especially in the Waldstein Sonata, while in Chopin's nocturnes, the line draws through the space like a glowing thread.
