His only violin concerto was the first large-scale piece that Pyotr Tchaikovsky began to compose anew after the catastrophe of his misguided marriage. But unlike his Fourth Symphony, also completed during this period (which is on the program of the second Academy Concert of the 2025–26 season), this work contains neither disastrous falls nor motifs of fate, and there is no plot that could be subsumed into the music. Nevertheless, it perhaps subliminally tells of the search for the right place in life, of the relationship of the individual to society. The very choice of the key of D major—the same as in Ludwig van Beethoven's Violin Concerto—signifies a connection to history, and his individual approach to symphonic form testifies to the composer's self-confidence. Leonidas Kavakos, who made his debut with the Bavarian State Orchestra a good ten years ago with Johannes Brahms's Violin Concerto, takes on the solo part. The musical director—for the first time ever at the Bavarian State Opera—is Markus Poschner, one of the most stylistically versatile and curious conductors of our time. With Beethoven's Eroica , he makes a debut that reassesses the work's political message for our times: a debut that raises high expectations.

The Spanish conductor Pablo Heras-Casada, principal guest conductor of the Teatro Real in Madrid, will be conducting the Bavarian State Orchestra for the first time and will present Hector Berlioz's orchestral songs Les Nuits d'été, Op. 7. Christian Gerhaher will perform the vocal part in this romantic, wistful song cycle, marked by farewells, which was never performed in its entirety during the composer's lifetime. He last appeared in this context exactly ten years ago, at the 5th Academy Concert in 2016 under the direction of Kirill Petrenko. The concert will then be followed by a work with a twenty-year history of composition: Johannes Brahms began drafts for a symphony as early as 1854, but he wrote doubtfully to Hermann Levi: "You have no idea how we feel when we always hear such a giant (meaning Beethoven) marching behind us." The composer was not satisfied with his own work until he was 43; Symphony No. 1 in C minor, Op. 68, was premiered in Karlsruhe in 1876 (the same year as Richard Wagner's Ring of the Nibelung in Bayreuth).

5. Chamber Concert: Time Stands Still

Sebastian Weigle is already a familiar name at the Munich National Theater, having performed in numerous operatic performances. With The Love of Danae, the internationally sought-after artist recently rehearsed his first new production at the Bavarian State Opera, and now he is conducting an Academy concert for the first time. The program features two orchestral works whose virtuosity and richness of color showcase the instrumental talent of an orchestra in every respect: Modest Mussorgsky's only original orchestral composition, A Night on Bald Mountain, a wild witches' sabbath, and Camille Saint-Saëns 's Organ Symphony   , in which the State Opera's new organ is able to unfold its splendor. In the fine tradition of the Bavarian State Orchestra of introducing its soloists in the Academy Concerts, principal trumpeter Johannes Moritz will interpret the Trumpet Concerto by Alexander Arutiunyan: a truly spectacular piece in which the Armenian composer combines elements of his homeland's folk music with late-Romantic, luxuriant harmonies and French flair – a captivating discovery.
