New Year sounds golden: Brass and organ open Coburg's concert year

Free entry and festive sounds: On January 11, 2026, at 5:00 PM, a Philharmonic Brass Quintet together with the organ fills the Moriz Church in Coburg. The program spans from Melchior Franck to Johann Sebastian Bach to Edward Elgar – a New Year's concert that ideally unites acoustics, architecture, and the art of timbres.

Dynamic start, brilliant sound

As trumpets, horn, trombone, and tuba set the first fanfares, live atmosphere pulses immediately. The quintet – Hedwig Emmerich and Markus Riepertinger (trumpets), Martin Osterhammer (horn), Carsten Fuss (trombone), and Johannes Freyer (tuba) – synchronizes articulation and dynamics with precise orchestration. The Moriz Church contributes to a clear yet warm sound with its Gothic expanses.

Organ sound with richness of color

Markus Ewald at the organ allows registers to shimmer, merging with the brass or shining soloistically. In Bach's lines, fine conducting from the console is evident, while Elgar's harmonious sound expands into wide arcs. Subtle balance, well-rounded intonation, and a stage performance without showiness characterize the concert experience.

Tradition that moves Coburg

New Year's concerts are part of Coburg's musical landscape: the Philharmonic profile from the regional theater meets the church musical expertise of the Moriz Church. The repertoire honors local music history (Melchior Franck) while also connecting to international concert traditions – a crowd-puller with a reliable audience atmosphere.

Space, light, resonance

The architecture of St. Moriz City Church provides ideal conditions: clear projection for brass, deep fundamental tones for tuba and trombone, along with an organ plenum that immerses the vaults in floating sound planes. Every chorale, every fanfare gains contour – acoustically precise, emotionally close.

Conclusion: A festive start to the year with brilliant brass colors and colorful organ. Those who want to experience Coburg's classical scene live should mark the date, enjoying great music in special acoustics – all with free entry.
