Antonio Vivaldi: The Four Seasons – “Spring”
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart: Flute Concerto in D major
Ludwig van Beethoven: Symphony No. 1
Antonín Dvořák: Suite “From the New World” 

Michael Kofler - Soloflute Munich Philharmonics & Residenz-Solisten

An evening of elegance, rich tonal colours and poetic moods awaits visitors in the historic Allerheiligen-Hofkirche. In the warm glow of candlelight, music of breathtaking beauty unfolds, capturing the magic of the Baroque and Classical eras as well as the emotional heights of Romanticism. Michael Kofler, a flautist of international renown, together with the Residenz Soloists, guides the audience through a programme that brings the diversity of the European musical tradition to life in radiant colours of sound.

Antonio Vivaldi’s “Spring” from The Four Seasons opens the concert with sparkling lightness. Each phrase seems to paint the awakening of nature – singing birds, murmuring streams and gentle spring storms come vividly to life through the playful dialogue of the strings.

Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart’s Flute Concerto No. 2 in D major follows with subtle elegance. The clarity of the melodies, the graceful shaping of the themes and the harmonious balance between solo flute and ensemble create an incomparable intimacy within the Hofkirche. Michael Kofler interprets the work with lightness and sensitivity, allowing every motif, every breath of the music to be heard and drawing the listener into a dialogue between history, sound and space.

Ludwig van Beethoven’s Symphony No. 1 brings vitality, tension and compositional brilliance to the historic hall. Even in this early work, one senses the energy and innovative spirit of the young composer: melodic beauty meets rhythmic drama, harmonic turns meet orchestral power. The symphony fills the space with life, captivates the ear and already hints at Beethoven’s later greatness.

The crowning finale is Antonín Dvořák’s From the New World Suite. Vast landscapes, deep emotions and rhythmic vitality open a musical journey across continents. At times dance-like, at times full of longing, the work tells a story of departure, discovery and home all at once.

Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart – Piano Sonata in B-flat major, K. 333

Mozart’s Piano Sonata in B-flat major, K. 333 is one of the most refined examples of his piano writing. The first movement combines elegance and clarity with effortless virtuosity. In the lyrical slow movement, Mozart creates a deeply expressive, almost vocal atmosphere. The lively finale returns to a playful spirit, bringing the sonata to a brilliant and charming close.

Franz Schubert – Impromptus, Op. 142

Schubert’s Impromptus, Op. 142 unite spontaneity with remarkable structural depth. Dramatic gestures alternate with moments of lyrical simplicity and flowing melody. The famous third Impromptu unfolds with serene, timeless beauty, while the final piece brings energetic movement and virtuosity, concluding the set with brilliance.

Frédéric Chopin – Fantaisie in F minor, Op. 49

Chopin’s Fantaisie in F minor, Op. 49 is among his most personal and dramatic works. Rather than following a strict form, the music unfolds like a free narrative, moving between powerful, march-like passages and deeply poetic moments. A calm, hymn-like section at the center offers a moment of reflection before the work builds again toward its passionate conclusion.
