An evening with old songs that shine anew in Augsburg
With The Liadhaber, a concert is coming to Augsburg on September 11, 2026, that combines folk music, song tradition, and lively stage presence into a unique event experience. The group led by folk song researcher Dagmar Held presents old songs in a new guise on stage, creating a warm, immediate event atmosphere that appeals to both lovers of traditional music and curious culture fans.
Music with history and character
The Liadhaber came together in early 2011 to bring back to life songs recorded in Bavarian Swabia and in German-speaking areas of Southeastern Europe. The program features tavern songs, ballads, songs about traveling, love, and farewells. Through diverse arrangements, the pieces unfold a blend of earthiness and fine poetry.
A concert that creates closeness
Violin, clarinet, accordion, harp, and bass shape the sound of The Liadhaber. This very instrumentation ensures a tightly woven, acoustic evening that slows down in the best sense. The audience experiences not a loud show here, but a sensitive concert with a great sense of dynamics, text, and musical color.
Augsburg as a fitting setting
The Augsburg city offers the ideal setting for such a cultural format. Those attending the concert can combine the evening with a stroll through the city center, enjoy nearby gastronomy, and experience a culturally charged visit that pleasantly stands out from classical mainstream events.
Conclusion
The Liadhaber promise an evening full of melodies, stories, and true closeness to the stage. Anyone wanting to experience traditional music in a contemporary form should not miss this concert in Augsburg.
