Chamber Concerts
The immense Bayerisches Staatsorchester and its numerous members not only perform opera and symphonic music – for several decades now they have also been especially passionate about performing smaller format chamber concerts. The chamber music series, which now finds its home in the Allerheiligen-Hofkirche and in each and every season offers six Sunday matinees with different line-ups, has been with us since 1960. In the 2025–2026 season, the selection ranges from English Renaissance to Christmas baroque music, through to the classics of the 20th century. As a feature of the Munich Opera Festival, there are also some larger arrangement chamber concerts in the Cuvilliés Theatre. With the orchestra’s young, up-and-coming talent, with its programmes the Hermann Levi Academy also makes a significant contribution to the Bayerische Staatsoper’s instrumental profile. Over time, the chamber music work and performances have produced an in-house ensemble, which also performs in Munich and far beyond.
