Summer Sound with Narrative Power
Marion Ludwig, Barbara Fichtner, Sirka Schwartz-Uppendieck, and Michael Herrschel create a concert experience that intertwines sound colors and literature closely. The evening traverses Celtic seasonal festivals, Mediterranean flute tones, and delicate harp images, until a warm, almost cinematic atmosphere unfolds through piano and voice. This very blend is what makes the format appealing: chamber music with a narrative arc, precise orchestration in a small ensemble, and a palpable live atmosphere.

A Stage for Female Composers and Rarely Heard Sound Worlds
The Summer of Female Composers Fürth once again focuses on music by women from several centuries in 2026. Sirka Schwartz-Uppendieck has been a defining voice in this project as a pianist, organist, and initiator of this series for years; her work has been recognized with the Cultural Special Prize of the City of Fürth. This makes Celtic Summer not just a concert, but a curated exploration of repertoire that too rarely stands in the spotlight of concert life.

The Resurrection Church as a Resonance Space
The Resurrection Church is located at Nürnberger Straße 15 in the city park of Fürth and is one of the prominent cultural venues in the city. According to the City of Fürth, it is only a few minutes from the Fürther Freiheit stop and the Fürth main train station; the church itself describes itself as an Open Church in the city park. For a concert with fine dynamics and acoustic transparency, this space creates exactly the kind of closeness that makes chamber music so intense.
