Symphonic Brass Brilliance in the City Theater: Hour of Music 2026

On March 28, 2026, Amberg pulsates to the rhythm of symphonic brass music: The Knappschaftkapelle of the City of Amberg invites you to the Hour of Music at the City Theater. Under the direction of Anton Lottner, the 50-member orchestra shapes a colorful program between classical, musical, and modern wind orchestra literature – with a youth orchestra and goosebump moments.

Sound Colors that Light Up the Hall

Original compositions, spectacular arrangements, and solo highlights unleash their effect in the hall. From Jacques Offenbach's Orpheus in the Underworld to musical highlights from Jesus Christ Superstar, the musicians create a dramaturgically wise arc with captivating contemporaries. Precise interplay, balanced orchestration, and dynamic tension arcs make the concert experience immediately tangible.

Live Atmosphere with Depth of Detail

Finely tuned synchronization of wood and brass, radiant fanfares, lyrical cantilenas of the clarinets, and warm horns – the acoustics of the house carries every nuance. Light and space set the stage performance in scene as the ensemble transitions from gentle pianissimi to energetic tutti passages.

Tradition Meets Present

The orchestra, deeply rooted in Amberg's mining history, celebrates its history while simultaneously looking forward. In addition to symphonic brass music, colorful dances such as Arabian Dances and Troll Dance are also heard – music that carries the audience along and visibly heats up the audience's mood.

Promising Youth

The youth orchestra under Moritz Rothmeier opens with fresh sound and clear articulation. Clean intonation and a lively pulse: This is how the next generation sounds – a boon for the entire evening.

Conclusion

An evening full of emotion, precision, and local identity. Two hours of music theater feeling for wind orchestra – dense, varied, close. Experience this highlight live at the City Theater in Amberg and secure your tickets in advance.
