A soul journey that captivates Fürth

On May 6, 2026, Rolando Villazón, together with the Lautten Compagney and Wolfgang Katschner, will bring his program Viaggio dell’anima – Soul Journey to the Stadttheater Fürth. The evening dives deep into the inner world of a person embarking on a musical journey to the center of his own soul – with Monteverdi and composers of his time as a sonic compass.

Sound between brilliance and abyss

Villazón has been one of the most defining voices in the opera and concert world for many years. His international career includes celebrated performances on the major stages of Europe and beyond, along with an extensive discography with Deutsche Grammophon. For this concert, he shapes an intensity field from expression, line, and text comprehensibility that feels particularly close in the live moment. The music of the early Italian opera unfolds its full emotional tension between monody, affect, and the art of narrative singing.

Monteverdi, monody and the birth of modern feeling

At the center of the program is that musical language which took new paths around 1600: solo singing with instrumental accompaniment, clear text declamation, and a direct approach to feeling. It is precisely from this that the special energy of this evening arises. For those present in Fürth, there will be no historical reconstruction, but a vibrant concert experience with historical depth, precise orchestration, and a tension-rich stage performance.

The Lautten Compagney as a finely drawn sound fabric

The Lautten Compagney is known for stylistic accuracy, colorful sound discourse, and its close proximity to historical performance practice. Together with Villazón, a dialogue between voice and ensemble emerges that does not rely on mere virtuosity, but on atmosphere, dramaturgy, and emotional density. Especially in a venue like the Stadttheater Fürth, whose classical framework directs the focus to listening, this program unfolds its full effect.

An evening for audiences with a sense of intensity

The concert promises an evening for listeners seeking great emotions in concentrated form. The mixture of sacred and secular works, baroque expressiveness, and modern stage presence makes Viaggio dell’anima a special date in the Fürth concert calendar. The live atmosphere is likely to oscillate between fine silence, keen attention, and powerful vocal highlights.

Conclusion: Fürth experiences great music under the sign of the inner journey

Rolando Villazón and the Lautten Compagney will bring a demanding, sensual, and emotionally charged concert to the Stadttheater Fürth on May 6, 2026. Anyone who loves baroque sound art, a great voice, and a finely constructed program should not miss this evening.
