Great chamber music, close and tangible: Viola meets piano in Amberg

On March 9, 2026, Tabea Zimmermann and Javier Perianes will transform the Amberg city theater into a resonant space for masterpieces of chamber music. Two exceptional artists combine experience, sound fantasy, and stage presence – for a concert experience that unites acoustics, light, and emotion in perfect synchronization.

Sound colors that breathe

Zimmermann's warm viola timbres and Perianes' bright piano tone merge into a finely balanced orchestration of feelings. The program spans from the 19th to the 20th century – featuring works that make admiration, inspiration, and artistic exchange audible.

Brahms, Schumann, Britten, Shostakovich

The close connection of Johannes Brahms to the musician couple Robert and Clara Schumann shapes the romantic sound language – lyrical, singable, chamber music intimate. In the 20th century, Benjamin Britten's variation art and Dmitri Shostakovich's late introspection reflect the modern age: clear lines, nuanced dynamics, dramatic tension. Internationally performed programs by the duo included Fantasy Pieces by Schumann, Brahms' Viola Sonata in E-flat major op. 120/2, Britten's Lachrymae, and Shostakovich's Viola Sonata op. 147.

Audience atmosphere: focused – and electrified

The live atmosphere in Amberg carries: short breaths, tense silence, then enthusiastic applause. Overtones unfold in the room, the stage shines – a stage performance that convinces through clear phrasing, chamber music direction, and flawless balance.

A house for fine tones

The Amberg city theater offers excellent sightlines and an intimate acoustic – ideal for finely chiseled sound developments, silky pianissimi, and bright forti. Cloakroom free of charge, quick entry, short distances.

Conclusion

Those who want to experience chamber music in its highest perfection are at the right place: an intense evening between romanticism and modernity – poetic, precise, moving. Secure your tickets in time and experience the duo live in Amberg.
