Anna-Lena Elbert live in Lockenhaus

Experience Anna-Lena Elbert live on July 12th

Anna-Lena Elbert will perform at Pfarrkirche Lockenhaus in Lockenhaus, Austria on July 12, 2026. Elbert is a German pianist known for her interpretations of Romantic and contemporary classical music, frequently focusing on the works of composers like Rachmaninoff, Liszt, and contemporary figures exploring minimalist and spectralist aesthetics. Her playing is often described as possessing both technical brilliance and a deeply expressive quality, emphasizing nuanced dynamics and atmospheric soundscapes.

Pfarrkirche Lockenhaus is a parish church with origins dating back to the 13th century, though the current structure largely reflects Baroque renovations undertaken in the 17th and 18th centuries. The church is dedicated to Saint James the Apostle. Notably, it gained international recognition as the primary venue for the annual *Lockenhaus Chamber Music Festival* founded in 1983 by Gidon Kremer. The festival's association has established Pfarrkirche Lockenhaus as an important space for chamber music performance due to its favorable acoustics and intimate setting. The building features significant architectural details typical of Burgenland’s Baroque churches including ornate stucco work and altarpieces.
