An evening between opera, jazz, and great stage magic at the Nikolaisaal

With Harmony Music - From Ballad Opera to Broadway, a program hits the stage at Nikolaisaal Potsdam on January 8, 2027, that elegantly dissolves musical boundaries. The Chamber Academy Potsdam combines that evening the sharpness of Kurt Weill with the breadth of George Gershwin, with Devid Striesow as a speaker. The result promises a concert experience with style, wit, and that live atmosphere that suddenly makes a classical concert evening feel very present.

When sound meets character

Harmony music thrives on transparency, precision, and an orchestration that translates large operatic worlds into a concentrated wind ensemble. This is precisely where the charm of this evening lies: the well-known melodies appear newly contoured, closer to the breath of the musicians and closer to the audience's mood in the hall. Those who listen attentively experience not just arrangements, but a finely balanced musical narrative.

Between Weill, Gershwin, and the 1920s

The program leads into an era where music theater was experimented with between Berlin and New York. Selections from The Threepenny Opera and Porgy and Bess open a panorama from a social perspective, jazzy harmonies, and pointed rhythms. The wind players of the Chamber Academy Potsdam bring these materials to the stage with clear sound and precise synchronization, while Devid Striesow connects the evening with language and presence.

A concert evening with attitude and elegance

The Nikolaisaal provides an ideal setting: acoustically precise, atmospherically close, and in its central location right in the middle of Potsdam, easily accessible. The concert is aimed at listeners who not only want to enjoy classical music but also experience it in its dramatic power. Here, not only beauty in sound counts, but also the tension between text, music, and stage performance.

What makes this date special

The blend of scenic reading, chamber music virtuosity, and the grand theatrical tradition of the selected works makes the evening a powerful start to the concert year 2027. Those who love the fine edge between opera, concert, and musical storytelling will find just the right measure of intimacy and expression here. A visit is worthwhile for all who appreciate musical substance and live presence at the highest level.
