The small festival Chamber Music in Hütten promises a unique musical experience in an exceptional setting. Organised by the Freiraum Cultural Association in cooperation with the Leogang Mining and Gothic Museum, the festival takes place on 7 and 8 November 2026. Over two consecutive days, music lovers can look forward to a varied programme celebrating historic soundscapes, great composers and musical discoveries.
The two venues could hardly provide a more atmospheric setting. St Anna Miners’ Chapel in the district of Hütten and the Thurnhaus, part of the Leogang Mining and Gothic Museum, offer the ideal backdrop for outstanding chamber music. Combining musical excellence with historic surroundings, the festival promises a concert experience that appeals not only to enthusiasts of early music.
A Musical Tasting Menu and a Celebration of Mozart
The festival opens on Saturday 7 November at 6 pm in St Anna Miners’ Chapel with Musical Tasting Menu, performed by Maria Galkina and Florian Moser of Salzburg Court Music. Audiences can look forward to a varied musical introduction to the weekend. At 8 pm, the programme continues at the Leogang Mining and Gothic Museum. With MOZART – Letters and Music, Ivanis, Goikoetxea and Wilkening explore the life and work of one of the most significant composers in the history of music. Through a combination of letters and music, the programme offers a multifaceted insight into Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart and his time.
Sunday 8 November is also dedicated to musical discovery. At 11 am, Wolfgang Brunner will introduce the works at the Leogang Mining and Gothic Museum, offering audiences an opportunity to gain a deeper understanding of the music to follow. At 11.30 am, Salzburg Court Music takes to the stage with Salzburg Dance, Splendour and Sensibility around 1700. The programme explores the musical expressions and soundscapes of an era in which dance, emotion and musical elegance were closely intertwined.
