An evening for new sounds, great tension, and Henze intensity
With Future Music »Henze«, the Augsburg State Theatre continues its series for New Music on 10/17/2026 at 6:00 PM. On the brecht stage in the Gaswerk, the Augsburg Philharmonic will present a program featuring works by Hans Werner Henze – moderated, focused, and entirely tailored to the immediate live atmosphere. The result promises a concert experience that balances sound precision, intellectual sharpness, and emotional power.

Between Experiment and Expression
The Future Music series has represented new and contemporary music in Augsburg for years in a particularly accessible form. Henze fits perfectly into this profile: His music combines orchestration, dramatic tension, and a strong connection to literary and political ideas. This interplay of structure, color, and expression is precisely what makes this evening so fascinating. ([staatstheater-augsburg.de](https://staatstheater-augsburg.de/konzert_26?utm_source=openai))
The Brecht Stage as a Sound Space
The brecht stage in the Gaswerk provides the ideal setting for this. The venue has around 215 seats and is located in the Gaswerk area in Augsburg-Oberhausen. The address for directions is Am Alten Gaswerk 7, 86156 Augsburg. The parking garage opposite the stage is limited, so arriving by bus or shuttle is also recommended for the evening. Bus line 21 stops at the Gaswerk; additionally, on performance days, there is a free taxi shuttle from Oberhausen train station.

A Concert with Proximity, Focus, and Resonance
Especially in new music, presence in the space counts: fine dynamic nuances, precise entries, transparent sound layers. The audience experiences not just a concert but a musical thought movement in real time. The Augsburg Philharmonic has established a format with the Future Music series that consistently lives this openness.

For those who want to discover or hear Henze live, this evening offers character, substance, and sonic radiance. The combination of moderated presentation, ensemble quality, and special performance space makes this concert a must-attend for curious music fans.
