Mozart's Jupiter Symphony meets Weber's virtuosic bassoon

On Thursday, October 8, 2026, the Isarphilharmonie in Gasteig HP8 transforms into a sound space for classical music at the highest level. The Munich Philharmonic, conducted by Andrea Marcon, presents a program that connects Mozart's cheerful operatic world, Carl Maria von Weber's romantic sound language, and the monumental Jupiter Symphony.

Sparking start with Mozart

The concert evening opens with Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart's overture to Così fan tutte. Its elegant orchestration, pointed rhythm, and buoyant dynamics create an immediate contrast to the solemn grandeur of the later symphonic movement. Andrea Marcon guides the orchestra with precise conducting through Mozart's transparent sound and the finely tuned synchronization of the instrumental groups.

Raffaele Giannotti in the spotlight

In Carl Maria von Weber's Bassoon Concerto in F Major, Op. 75, Raffaele Giannotti, solo bassoonist of the Munich Philharmonic, takes on the solo part. The work, composed in 1811, combines cantabile warmth with technical brilliance and showcases the bassoon in its lyrical, virtuosic, and dialogical role. Amid colors of woodwinds, string sounds, and orchestral responses, a concert moment with special sonic depth is created.

Mozart's Jupiter Symphony as a grand highlight

With the Symphony in C Major KV 551, known as Jupiter, the program reaches its symphonic scope. Mozart combines festive sonic splendor with contrapuntal art and leads the musical lines in the famous final fugue to an impressive finale. In the live atmosphere of the Isarphilharmonie, light, acoustics, and audience mood unfold into an intense concert experience.

Concert introduction before the start

A concert introduction in the rehearsal hall of House C begins at 6:15 PM and lasts about 40 minutes. The concert evening itself starts at 7:30 PM and lasts about an hour and a half, including the intermission.

Conclusion

This symphony concert unites Mozart's operatic sparks, Weber's bassoon artistry, and the overwhelming architecture of the Jupiter Symphony. Anyone wanting to experience classical music in a concentrated live atmosphere will find an evening full of elegance, energy, and musical mastery in the Isarphilharmonie.
