"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 particular focus on the Romantic period, featuring Robert Schumann, Johannes Brahms, and the multitalented E.T.A. Hoffmann (who, in an idealized form, became the title character in Offenbach's opera), "The Fantastic" will be explored with a variety of chamber music works in diverse ensembles.

Apollosaal

Seit 2010 spielen Ensembles der Staatskapelle im Bode-Museum, einem Juwel der Berliner Museumslandschaft. Matinee-Konzerte von gut einer Stunde Dauer im Gobelinsaal mit Musik aus den vergangenen Jahrhunderten können zwanglos in weitere Stunden im Museum übergehen – etwa bei einem Ausstellungsbesuch oder kulinarischen Ausklang im stilvollen Museumscafé.

Gobelinsaal Bode-Museum

For more than six decades, the chamber concerts by musicians from the Staatskapelle have been a constant feature of the Staatsoper programme. This season, ensembles have come together to select music from different periods, styles and cultures under the theme of ‘playing together’. On eleven dates in the Apollosaal, which with its special atmosphere is an ideal venue for chamber music and communicative interaction between players and listeners, works from the Baroque to the present day will be performed in constellations that are both exciting and harmonious, in which tangible contrasts play just as important a role as a common resonance and the balancing of opposites.
