👤 Artistic Director: Prof. Markus Bellheim Performers Lena Neudauer, violin Markus Bellheim, piano Students of HMTM (University of Music and Theatre Munich) Programme Claude Debussy (1862–1918): Piano Trio in G major (Trio for piano, violin and cello) Dmitri Shostakovich (1906–1975): Piano Trio No. 1 in C minor, op. 8 (Trio for violin, cello and piano) Franz Schubert (1797–1828): Piano Trio in B-flat major, op. 99 / D 898 (Trio for piano, violin and cello) Description The season opens with the 1st concert in the ODEON concert series at the Allerheiligen-Hofkirche, titled “First Paths”. The church’s unique architecture at the Munich Residenz provides the perfect setting for a listening experience that creates a unique sense of focus. “Between the Lines” is the theme of the next six concerts. A central anchor of the programme is Dmitri Shostakovich, one of the most important composers of the 20th century. His life and work were profoundly shaped by the political upheavals of the Soviet era. His music tells of the constant balancing act between conformity and artistic self-realisation—of fear and oppression, but also of dignity, hope and inner freedom. Against the backdrop of current political tensions, his work, framed by compositions by Debussy and Schubert, takes on particular relevance. It vividly reminds us that culture is always greater than the politics of any state—and that art can foster understanding where politics leaves us speechless. Come in, take a seat and let the sounds carry you through the church—a rare, restorative pause in the rhythm of the city. Accompanied by Dr. Tobias Reichard’s hosting, music and space merge into a compelling arc that will resonate long afterwards. Get your tickets now for the 1st ODEON concert: “First Paths” in Munich!
