Ensemble Phoen vividly captures the multifaceted and magical world of the circus through music. Their performance not only pays homage to the artistry of the circus but also celebrates the enduring musical inspiration that artists and composers have drawn from the captivating circus ring over the centuries.
Charlie Chaplin, who composed music for the circus he loved so much, and Nino Rota, who skilfully wove circus music’s tonal structures into film scores starting in the 1950s, exemplify the deep bond between the circus realm and musical creativity. Ensemble Phoen, comprising four saxophones and a pianist, carries on this tradition by reviving the circus spirit through their performance. They adeptly weave selected film clips into their musical experience, creating a captivating visual accompaniment.
The programme ranges from Ernst Toch’s “The Juggler” for piano to Igor Stravinsky’s “Circus Polka for a Little Elephant”, also for piano, and Charlie Chaplin’s emotive “Smile”. Nino Rota’s music for “La Strada, Il Circo” and other Fellini films expresses the tonal diversity and emotional depth of circus music. Arnold Zamarin’s “A Clown's Trick” and Viola Falk’s “Traurigkeit und Heiterkeit in Zweisamkeit” (Shared sadness and serenity) complement the programme with modern interpretations and reflections on life in the circus.

About Candlelight
The Candlelight Concerts, a series developed by Fever, aim to make classical music more accessible to everyone. They allow people worldwide to experience live music performances by local musicians in captivating venues, illuminated by the enchanting glow of over a thousand candles. Candlelight was initially conceived to showcase classical concerts featuring renowned composers like Vivaldi, Mozart, and Chopin. Over time, the series has expanded to include a diverse array of themes, honouring not only classical masters but also contemporary artists such as Coldplay, Ed Sheeran, Queen, ABBA and many more. Genres such as jazz, film music soundtracks, soul, opera and flamenco are also included. This multi-sensory experience has evolved to include ballet and aerial acrobatics, further enhancing the performance. The Candlelight Concerts are staged in over 150 cities worldwide and have attracted more than 3 million attendees.
Tickets are sold exclusively by the organiser.

“The Gospel People” were founded by Gospel Concert Management and Charles W. Creath in 2011. After his death in 2020, lead singer Owen Nixon took over as musical director.
He has a deep love for the church, holds a spiritual office and supports various initiatives, including performing as a soloist with the “All City Chorus of the City of Portsmouth.” In his earlier years, he was also an a cappella solo vocalist and holds a Bachelor of Music with a specialisation in media studies. Alongside him, Brandon Landrum (keyboards and vocals) is a permanent member of the band. The legend continues with the singers who joined the cast in 2022 – Toneisha Jones Harris (alto), who has previously played roles on Broadway, including Shug Avery in “The Color Purple” and Oda Mae Brown in “Ghost, The Musical”. She was the highest-placed African-American singer in the history of NBC’s “The Voice” in 2020. Her colleague Madyson “Symphony” McSwain (soprano) has recently released her debut album and has previously appeared on stage with the incredible Adam Blackstone to celebrate his Emmy win. As a tribute to the unforgettable Deirdre Valentine “Big Mama”, the internationally acclaimed worship songwriter Jessica Fox (alto) was brought on board as her replacement. This year, Demarkis Vinson will stand in for Ernest Meredith (drums), who was unable to take part at short notice.

Vienna – also the city of female composers!
They remained overlooked for many years, but then it happened quickly: the (re)discovery of Johann Strauss’ female contemporaries! Their works, often hidden in Viennese archives, German libraries or Upper Austrian castles, are usually only available in piano versions.
One of the main characters of the concert is Constanze Geiger. Johann Strauss’ father dedicated the “Flora Quadrille” to her, and his son composed the “Cricket Banner Waltz” in her honour – the child prodigy who later became a princess. Her eventful life – including the birth of her son two years before her marriage to Prince Leopold von Coburg – is just one of many stories brought to light in the concert. Josefine Weinlich-Amann, founder of Europe’s first women’s orchestra and an internationally acclaimed conductor, and Leopoldine Blahetka, a pianist and composer who was supported by Beethoven, also take centre stage. The programme includes works by the waltz composer Gisela Frankl and a ragtime piece, alongside music by composers associated with Johann Strauss, created for significant events such as the arrival of the future Empress Elisabeth in Nussdorf, festive anniversaries of the imperial family and performances at the Vienna World Exhibition. They travelled halfway around the world with their music.
Inspired by these extraordinary women, our programme also features works by contemporary female composers – a ragtime by Violeta Dinescu, dance music by Johanna Doderer and Viola Falb, a tango by Melissa Coleman and a world premiere by Ursula Erhart. Their arrangements make this concert possible, as their meticulous research uncovered only piano sheet music.

Joseph Haydn skilfully encapsulated “the idea of chaos” in his masterpiece “Schöpfung” (The Creation). In contrast, Jean-Fery Rebel unleashes a tumultuous energy within the baroque primordial soup. Yet, God graciously brought forth light, water, air and earth, paving the way for humanity’s arrival. Alongside this emergence was Johann Sebastian Bach, who also worked wonders through the organizing principle of the fugue. Ludwig van Beethoven demonstrated how to intertwine freedom with rigour, chaos with order, in his “Grosse Fuge.” This concert creation blends Ligeti, Schnittke and improvisation, playfully engaging with all the elements.

Who would have thought that a declaration of love for the Queen and literature could blend so perfectly? It’s all thanks to the dogs. During a stroll with the Queen, they dash off to bark at the county library’s bookmobile, which happens to be parked in one of the palace courtyards. Out of courtesy, the Queen apologises to the librarian, and, to be polite, borrows a book – only to discover a passion for reading.
The ripple effects of the Queen’s sudden literary appetite shake Buckingham Palace to its core, leaving not a dry eye in the audience.

With youthful energy and charm, they lead their audience on a journey through musical history, taking in not just Mozart, Schubert and Strauss, but World Music and Pop as well.

Anyone who has met Jalalu-Kalvert Nelson in person won’t soon forget the warmth and openness he radiates – a genuine, boundless heart beats here for you. The composer and trumpeter, originally from Oklahoma and now residing in Switzerland, seems to brim with an inexhaustible energy. This energy fuels his chamber music compositions, theatre scores, live performances and a seemingly endless repertoire of stories. While we cannot say for certain whether Meredith Monk shares the same openness and warmth, her fusion of ritual and mythical elements with the avant-garde art practices of 1970s and 80s New York – particularly through her dynamic performances of her own works and her role as a composer – reveals a shared artistic thread with the other featured artist.

Three long-cherished dreams of the Minetti Quartet are brought to life in concert. Mozart’s D minor Quartet captivates with its intricate complexity: dark and yearning in tone, meticulously constructed yet remarkably light-footed. Erwin Schulhoff's Five Pieces for String Quartet enchants with its cheeky and spirited style. Antonín Dvořák's final quartet in G major challenges the players to their utmost. This monumental work is filled with exuberant cheerfulness, soulful melodies, wild Slavic dances and a generous dose of good humour.

How far do you have to travel to be away? How long will it take to walk there? Travellers are always on the lookout for stories, encounters and people. Where is the accordionist who was playing outside the bistro the other day? Where have the Viennese girl’s lofty dreams taken her? Where can you find refuge from the nightmares, whether it’s the haunting figure of a child murderer or the solitary suitcase left in the grounds of a concentration camp? Actress and singer Nicole Beutler takes audiences on a musical and theatrical journey with her show “Wer weiß, wo ich schon morgen bin” (Who Knows Where I'll Be Tomorrow), alongside the talented musicians of the Viennese theatre. Jacques Brel, Patrick Bruel, Randy Newman, Serge Gainsbourgh and Udo Lindenberg accompany them with their songs and stories.

GLOAMING. As the evening sun casts its enchanting colours and long shadows after extended days, there's a unique atmosphere that Scala's music effortlessly conjures in the listener. In recent years, Scala’s works have found their way into countless Hollywood movies.
The winning formula lies in the seamless fusion of compelling visuals with the distinctive sound of Scala, consistently eliciting unique and powerful emotions in the listener. This effect is also achieved during their acclaimed live performances.
With GLOAMING, the Kolacny brothers have curated the pinnacle of their Hollywood repertoire, promising an evening filled with emotions and goosebumps.
SCALA, an all-female choir, specialises in recording and performing popular rock, metal, hip-hop, dance and pop songs with classical arrangements.
The choir is conducted by Stijn Kolacny, with piano accompaniment and song arrangements by Steven Kolacny.
Historically, cover songs have frequently taken centre stage, notably featuring in numerous trailers for Oscar-nominated films like Zero Dark Thirty and The Social Network. They’ve also left their mark on a plethora of well-known TV series, including Sex Education, Downton Abbey, The Simpsons, Sons Of Anarchy, Homeland, Desperate Housewives, Lucifer and Nikita. More recently, the cover of Smells Like Teen Spirit feature in the acclaimed series Kurt Cobain – Montage of Heck, while their rendition of Alanis Morissette's “You Ought To Know” became a notable part of the documentary chronicling her album “Jagged Little Pill.”
SCALA & Kolacny Brothers have now recorded over 250 songs in various languages, which are available for licensing and dubbing purposes. Scala occasionally undertakes specific commissions for these occasions.

“With me, with me no night is too long!” sings Baron Ochs auf Lerchenau joyfully in Richard Strauss’s “Rosenkavalier” waltz, evoking a mood that the composer had already captured in his early violin sonata. Volkhard Steude enchants on his violin for a lively concert evening that promises not to be too long. You’ll find yourself dancing along as Fritz Kreisler adds a splash of Viennese flair to a tango by Isaac Albeniz or ignites your spirit with “Gitana,” a captivating gypsy dance. This sets the stage for the exhilarating “Tzigane” by Ravel, composed for the virtuoso fingers of Hungarian violinist Jelly d’Arányi.

The Chaos String Quartet, hailing from four European countries, can do it all – playing string quartets by Otto M. Zykan and Jörg Widmann classically with two violins, viola and cello. Their ability to also create music with toothbrushes and winter jackets is both virtuoso and astonishing!
For the ensemble, there is no such thing as impossible. Composer Manuela Kerer masterfully turns the seemingly impossible into something significant and grand. As a result, her piece aptly bears the title “IMPOs II.” The ensemble’s sonic landscape is replete with overtones, spectra, and a kaleidoscope of tonal colours. Even electric toothbrushes become captivating instruments when you truly listen to them.
Composer Carola Bauckholt takes a bold departure from traditional string instruments. Instead, she invites the ensemble to create music using the fabric of their jackets – the very clothes they are wearing!
They stroke, tap, squeak, and clap while intently studying their sheet music. Their piece, entitled Hirn und Ei (Brain and Egg), culminates in a furious cacophony of noise.

Greece is often seen as the symbol of freedom and Mediterranean joie de vivre. After the fall of the fascist junta in 1974, Austrian-Hungarian priest Lorenz Gyömörey relocated there, having been an active participant in the fight for freedom and describing himself as a "cultural refugee". On the island of Amorgos, he purchased a small house that lacked electricity and running water. There, as well as in Athens, he immersed himself in the study of Greek literature and music. Helmut Wiesinger recites this tribute to Lorenz Gyömörey and his quest for freedom, while Greek songs are performed by Marcus Patka on guitar and Taner Türker on cello.

A delightful surprise awaits our audience in the third concert of our series, as we feature Johanna Beyer (1888-1944), an overlooked composer of experimental instrumental music. She was part of the American ultra-modernist movement alongside Henry Cowell and later connected with the New School group led by John Cage. Her music is strikingly concise and transparent, built on a strong conceptual foundation, and she is recognised as the first female composer to create an electro-acoustic work, aligning her with the contemporary composer Mark Fell. The evening will also spotlight a second composer, known to a completely different audience as a leading figure in electronic music. Following a successful workshop where we translated his process-driven musical structures into instrumental compositions, we are now ready to take the next step in our collaboration.

As a tantalising introduction, much like an amuse-gueule from the kitchen, we offer an ear-opening warm-up session to whet your appetite for the upcoming concert.

Together, we’ll dive into captivating highlights from the programme, giving visitors a unique, immersive listening experience right alongside the musicians. Start: 18:15 (free of charge).

With his signature narrative flair, Michael Köhlmeier brings to life the icons and legends of our time. He recounts why the legendary jazz pianist Thelonious Monk went to prison for a friend, how a chess duel unfolded between the greats Bob Dylan and Bobby Fischer, and shares stories of Marilyn Monroe, Max Schmeling, Ignaz Semmelweis, and the first lady of jazz, Ella Fitzgerald. Köhlmeier’s modern-day heroic tales, though grounded in fact, are artfully woven in a literary style. They explore themes of genius, madness, life’s illusions and extraordinary moments. These captivating stories will be enhanced by the jazz sounds of pianist Martin Gasselsberger and saxophonist Klaus Dickbauer.

„O ihr Menschen die ihr mich für feindselig, störrisch oder misantropisch haltet oder erkläret, wie Unrecht tut ihr mir, ihr wißt nicht die geheime Ursache von dem, was euch so scheinet …“ So beginnt Ludwig van Beethoven sein „Heiligenstädter Testament“, in dem er seinen Gehörverlust beklagt, an den Tod denkt, sich aber fürs Leben und die Kunst entscheidet. Cornelius Obonya liest aus dem tief berührenden Brief. Matthias Schorn, Ania und Sophie Druml lassen Beethoven musikalisch sprechen: Mit Trios, in denen die Klarinette die erste Geige spielt!

“Oh! ye who think or declare me to be hostile, morose and misanthropical, how unjust you are, and how little you know the secret cause of what appears thus to you!” With these words, Ludwig van Beethoven begins his profound “Heiligenstadt Testament,” a letter in which he confides his despair over his increasing deafness, contemplates death, but ultimately chooses life and art. Cornelius Obonya will give voice to this emotionally charged letter, while Matthias Schorn, along with Ania and Sophie Druml, will let Beethoven speak through music – performing trios where the clarinet takes centre stage.

There may be few clear aesthetic connections between Pauline Oliveros (1932-2016) – the trailblazing electronic music pioneer, composer, accordionist, and creator of “deep listening” – and Daniel Riegler, founder of Studio Dan, trombonist, and composer. However, both are linked through Riegler’s leadership of the ensemble, which shares ties with many figures of the American avant-garde. Will this be an evening of contrasts? Perhaps. But the occasion is the celebration of the 20th anniversary of our ensemble – Ceremony! The first part of the event features Pauline Oliveros’ sonic meditations, designed to elevate consciousness, while the second part bursts with Daniel Riegler’s composition for “his Studio Dan,” an exuberant musical answer to the provocative question: “Who cares if we don’t care?”

Inspired by the wonderful Neapolitan tradition of caffè sospeso, where the buyer of a cup of coffee financially supports the cup of an unknown fellow customer in a gesture of solidarity, we present the Biglietto sospeso for the concerts in the YOU BETTER LISTEN! series. It’s essentially a one-for-two deal!

There may be few clear aesthetic connections between Pauline Oliveros (1932-2016) – the trailblazing electronic music pioneer, composer, accordionist, and creator of “deep listening” – and Daniel Riegler, founder of Studio Dan, trombonist, and composer. However, both are linked through Riegler’s leadership of the ensemble, which shares ties with many figures of the American avant-garde. Will this be an evening of contrasts? Perhaps. But the occasion is the celebration of the 20th anniversary of our ensemble – Ceremony! The first part of the event features Pauline Oliveros’ sonic meditations, designed to elevate consciousness, while the second part bursts with Daniel Riegler’s composition for “his Studio Dan,” an exuberant musical answer to the provocative question: “Who cares if we don’t care?”
Amuse-Gueule
As a tantalising introduction, much like an amuse-gueule from the kitchen, we offer an ear-opening warm-up session to whet your appetite for the upcoming concert. In the hour leading up to each performance, we invite curious audience members to join us at the heart of the ensemble. Together, we’ll dive into captivating highlights from the programme, giving visitors a unique, immersive listening experience right alongside the musicians. Start: 18:15 (free of charge).

After more than a decade, The Erlkings have set out on their long-awaited winter journey through the 24 songs of Schubert's masterpiece. The poetry of Wilhelm Müller has been adapted into contemporary English by Bryan Benner, reimagined for the 21st century with The Erlkings‘ signature sound. The outcome is a realm of ice, snow and burning tears, artfully crafted through the unique blend of voice, guitar, cello, tuba, drums and vibraphone.

An evening that combines melodies and stories from Scotland, Ireland and Persia. Scottish dances, Irish songs, lively jigs, and tunes of shepherds and shepherdesses – all brought to life through a unique musical dialogue between the piano trio and the oud.
The performance opens with a song that speaks of falling in love, of life’s worries and of hard work. Frank Martin and Bohuslav Martinu capture the essence of folk music in their works for piano trio – songs once sung during and after work, reflecting themes of love, passion and life connected with nature.
Avin Ahmadi, singer and oud player, brings a new perspective to this traditional music. Accompanying herself on the oud, she sings about the present – her life in Iran and stories from the north, south, east and west of the country. These songs reflect the rich sense of community and culture across Iran’s regions, bringing to life a diverse musical heritage and the tradition of collective storytelling.
