ODEON celebrates 20 years with a grand symphonic journey

The ODEON Youth Symphony Orchestra Munich invites you to the Autumn Concert no. 1 on November 24, 2026, in the Hercules Hall of the Residence. To celebrate its 20th anniversary, the ensemble combines contemporary music, expressive late romanticism, and symphonic mastery into a festive anniversary program.

A new overture for a special anniversary

The concert opens with Orbit by Annabel Blaschke. The composer, who was awarded at Jugend komponiert Bayern, wrote the anniversary overture specifically for ODEON. In the orchestral sound language, modern colors, dynamic movements, and precise synchronization come together – a musical look ahead for an orchestra that has been bringing young musicians together for two decades.

Korngold's Violin Concerto with Yamei Yu

At the center of the evening's concert is Erich Wolfgang Korngold's Violin Concerto in D major. The soloist Yamei Yu leads through the virtuosic lines and late romantic sound richness of the work. Between radiant orchestral colors, singable melodies, and technically challenging solo passages, a stage performance full of tension and emotional depth is created.

Mendelssohn's Reformation Symphony

Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy's Symphony No. 5 in D major, the so-called Reformation Symphony, concludes the program. The work combines festive brass sounds, contrasting orchestral passages, and a clearly outlined musical dramaturgy. In the historical setting of the Hercules Hall, the composition unfolds its special effect between classical precision and romantic expression.

Young musicians with extensive orchestral experience

Founded in 2006, the ODEON Youth Symphony Orchestra Munich consists of young musicians aged 15 to 25. Under the artistic direction of Julio Doggenweiler Fernández, the orchestra regularly develops challenging programs and was awarded first place again at the German Orchestra Competition in 2025. Since 2010, there has also been a sponsorship with the Munich Philharmonic.

Conclusion: An anniversary concert full of energy and sound colors

The ODEON Autumn Concert no. 1 promises a versatile concert experience with the character of a world premiere, a virtuosic violin concerto, and great symphonic literature. Anyone wishing to experience the live atmosphere of a young, ambitious orchestra in the magnificent Hercules Hall will find here a festive concert evening bridging the present and music history.
