Thomas Hengelbrock live in Munich

Experience Thomas Hengelbrock live on October 23rd

Thomas Hengelbrock will appear at the Isarphilharmonie in Munich on October 23, 2026. Hengelbrock is a German conductor and violinist known for his historically informed performance practice, particularly within Baroque and Classical repertoire. His interpretations emphasize clarity of texture, dramatic intensity, and a focus on the rhetorical aspects of the music, often achieved through meticulous research into performance traditions and employing period instruments where appropriate. He frequently explores lesser-known works alongside established masterpieces.

The Isarphilharmonie, opened in 2021, is Munich’s newest concert hall and is located in the Werksviertel district. It was designed by architects Staab Architekten and boasts a vineyard-style layout intended to create an intimate atmosphere for both performers and audience members. The hall’s acoustics were developed with a focus on natural reverberation and clarity. It serves as the primary performance space for the Munich Philharmonic Orchestra alongside the Philharmonie am Gasteig, which is currently undergoing renovation. The Isarphilharmonie aims to be a versatile venue accommodating orchestral concerts, chamber music, and other musical events. It represents a significant addition to Munich’s cultural infrastructure.
