Brahms between Passion and Grand Symphonic Sound

On October 12, 2026, the Music Theater in Revier in Gelsenkirchen invites you to the 2nd Symphony Concert titled Do You Love Brahms? In the Great House, romantic intimacy, virtuosic piano art, and the youthful freshness of an early orchestral composition meet.

When Feelings Become Music

Johannes Brahms poured his deepest emotions into music. His close connection to Clara Schumann remained marked by great closeness and unfulfilled love. This emotional tension becomes the sonic motif of the concert: between warm string colors, powerful orchestral dialogues, and a finely nuanced romantic sound language.

Annika Treutler at the Concert Piano

The focus is on the Piano Concerto No. 2 in B-flat major, Op. 83. OPUS Classic award winner Annika Treutler interprets this demanding work with musical precision and great expressiveness. DER SPIEGEL praised her admirable strength and precision. In the second piano concerto, Brahms combines virtuosic passages with lyrical depth, chamber music intimacy, and majestic orchestral impact.

Serenade No. 1 Opens the Evening

With the Serenade No. 1 in D major, Op. 11, there is also a work on the program in which Brahms prepares his way to later symphonic greatness. The youthful fresh composition unfolds bright woodwind colors, dancing movements, and a carefully balanced orchestration. Under the direction of Golo Berg, an evening concert emerges that shows Brahms from his sensitive yet powerful side.

Live Atmosphere in the Great House

The audience's mood in the Great House of the Music Theater in Revier meets the detailed sound of a philharmonic concert. The conducting unifies the musical lines while the piano and orchestra respond to each other in intense synchronization. Thus, a concert experience arises that combines radiant romance, virtuosic stage performance, and concentrated musical tension.

Conclusion: Experience Brahms Up Close

The 2nd Symphony Concert combines Brahms’ Serenade No. 1 with his emotionally and technically demanding second piano concerto. Visitors can expect an atmospheric evening with Annika Treutler at the piano, Golo Berg at the conductor's desk, and great romantic orchestral literature. Anyone who wants to experience Brahms' sound world live should mark this concert date in Gelsenkirchen.
