"The Fantastic" is the theme of this season's chamber concerts in the Apollosaal, based on the season's first opera premiere, Offenbach's Les Contes d'Hoffmann . Musicians of the Staatskapelle Berlin have developed programs that approach this idea and concept, which play a key role in music, in a variety of ways. Ranging from the Baroque to the present day, with a special focus on the Romantic period, "The Fantastic" will be explored with a variety of chamber music works in diverse ensembles.

More than 80 years separate the works of three Romantic composers who are the focus of this chamber concert. The program spans from Franz Lachner, a name most have heard of, through one of the greats, Johannes Brahms, to a true rediscovery, Mathilde von Kralik.
