Federspiel brings new sound worlds to Unterschleißheim with We & Now
On November 20, 2026, the Bürgerhaus Unterschleißheim transforms into a resonant space for one of the most innovative musical ensembles in the European brass band scene. Federspiel presents the new program We & Now at 8:00 PM – a musical encounter between alpine tradition, world music, jazz, and contemporary concert aesthetics.
Seven Wind Players, a Distinctive Sound
Federspiel consists of seven musicians and combines clarinet, trumpets, flugelhorns, piccolo trumpet, zither, vocals, and other timbres into an extraordinary ensemble sound. The instrumentation opens up space for precise synchronization, surprising dynamics, and a stage performance that goes far beyond classical brass music.
At the center are musical independence and a keen awareness of the present. Traditional forms meet modern orchestration, percussive playing styles, and world musical influences. This results in concert moments that oscillate between powerful fanfare, delicate chamber music lines, and rhythmic movement.
We & Now: Music for the Present
The new program accompanies Federspiel on stage starting in 2026. The title refers to the big questions of the present and to a music that brings together the past and the future. Between folkloric roots, contemporary composition, and a jazz-like openness, the ensemble develops a sound full of warmth, energy, and surprising twists.
The live atmosphere thrives on the direct interplay of the seven musicians. Breath, brass, wood, and voice intertwine; from individual impulses emerges a fluid overall sound. Sometimes the instruments shine bright and festive, sometimes they condense into an earthy groove. The direction is taken not by a single person, but by the audible trust within the ensemble.
Experience from Hundreds of Concerts
For over 20 years, Federspiel has developed its own musical language between tradition and modernity. The ensemble has performed in various concert environments – from renowned philharmonics to atmospheric pub halls – and has established itself with genre-crossing programs in the international folk and world music scene.
Awards such as the Austrian World Music Award and the Freiburger Leiter emphasize the artistic significance of the formation. The discography ranges from Albedo and Wolperting to the 2026 program We & Now. In Unterschleißheim, this musical experience meets a curious audience and an evening that blends concert, sound experiment, and shared experience.
An Energetic and Intimate Concert Evening
Federspiel represents an audience mood that alternates between focused listening, rhythmic movement, and spontaneous enthusiasm. The music possesses the precision of a well-tuned chamber ensemble and at the same time the physical presence of a live band. This very tension makes the evening at the Bürgerhaus Unterschleißheim special: here, virtuosity, humor, musical curiosity, and immediate stage energy meet.
Conclusion: Experience Federspiel Live
We & Now promises a multifaceted concert experience for all who wish to rediscover brass music and leave musical boundaries behind. Anyone looking to experience modern folk music, world music, jazz impulses, and exceptional stage performances live should mark this evening at the Bürgerhaus Unterschleißheim in their calendars.
