A Sound Myth Returns to Munich
When Mike Oldfield’s Tubular Bells resonates on September 28, 2026, at Circus Krone in Munich, progressive music history meets one of the most iconic live venues in the city. The concert traverses the great chapters of the Tubular Bells saga and promises an intense concert experience between monumental sound architecture, fine dynamics, and cinematic tension.
A Work That Has Made Music History
Mike Oldfield is one of the formative figures of Progressive Rock and instrumental pop culture. With Tubular Bells, he achieved a debut in 1973 that is still considered a landmark today. The series was later continued with Tubular Bells II and Tubular Bells III, and now forms the basis of a large-scale tour that will travel through Europe in 2026. At the center is a live interpretation with an expanded ensemble and the musical signature of Robin Smith, long-time collaborator and arranger of this production.

Oldfield's musical language merges folk, progressive rock, ambient, and classical elements into a distinctive live moment. Especially in Circus Krone, this dramaturgy unfolds its special effect, as the closeness to the event makes the audience's mood immediately palpable.
