Monteverdi Festival Gala Concert: Italian Baroque in the Silbersaal
On October 21, 2026, the Silbersaal at the Deutsches Theater Munich will be transformed into an intimate sound space for Italian Baroque music. The Monteverdi Festival Gala Concert features the ensemble Cremona Antiqua, exploring the vocal and instrumental music of the 17th century.
A Musical Journey to Claudio Monteverdi
Under the title I baci di Zefiro, works by Claudio Monteverdi from the Scherzi musicali and the madrigal books will be the focus. The program is complemented by compositions from Barbara Strozzi, Alessandro Piccinini, Girolamo Frescobaldi, Giovanni Gabrieli, and Giovanni Battista Degli Antonii.
Delicate Tone Colors and Baroque Stage Atmosphere
The concert experience thrives on the sensitive interplay of soprano, violoncello, theorbo, and harpsichord. A rich musical dramaturgy unfolds between love, longing, pain, grace, and virtuosity. The historical sound language of Italian Baroque meets the concentrated live atmosphere of the Silbersaal.

Silvia Frigato and Benedetta Zanotto take on the soprano parts. Nicola Brovelli plays violoncello, Mauro Pinciaroli theorbo. Antonio Greco acts as musical director and harpsichordist.
