Romantic Sound Worlds at Augustinum Bonn
On Saturday, November 14, 2026, the Bonn Orchestra Association invites you to its autumn concert at Augustinum Bonn. Under the direction of Robert Wittbrodt, two extraordinary works of the Romantic period will be performed: Louise Farrenc's Symphony No. 1 in C minor, Op. 32, and Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy's Violin Concerto in E minor, Op. 64.
Farrenc's Symphony: Powerful, Independent, and Full of Color
Louise Farrenc's first symphony combines classical clarity with dramatic energy. The orchestration features striking themes, tension-filled crescendos, and finely-tuned soundscapes. The Bonn Orchestra Association thus centers a composer whose music is gaining increasing attention on concert stages.
Mendelssohn's Violin Concerto with Matilde Margalho
The highlight of the concert evening is Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy's Violin Concerto in E minor. Portuguese violinist Matilde Margalho will take on the solo part, engaging with the romantic masterpiece with virtuosic precision and lyrical expressiveness. A musical dialogue unfolds between solo violin and orchestra, ranging from delicate lines to powerful tutti passages.
Live Atmosphere and Precise Conducting
Robert Wittbrodt leads the orchestra through a program full of contrasts. The audience's mood thrives on the immediate connection between soloist, orchestra, and space: vibrant string colors, striking wind accents, and the synchronization of the individual instrumental groups shape the concert experience. In Augustinum Bonn, the audience can expect a focused stage performance with classical elegance and emotional depth.
An Evening for Lovers of Romantic Music
The autumn concert of the Bonn Orchestra Association combines musical rediscovery and a great repertoire. Farrenc's symphony opens new perspectives on orchestral music of the 19th century, while Mendelssohn's Violin Concerto, with its lyrical solo part and virtuosic dramaturgy, ranks among the defining works of the romantic concert literature.
Those who want to experience the Bonn Orchestra Association live will find an evening of refined orchestral work, virtuosic violin, and impressive romantic sound language at Augustinum Bonn. Secure your place and experience this special concert atmosphere directly in the hall.
