Benefit evening with piano and violin: Great emotions in the Klosterkirche

On Friday, January 9, 2026, two strong artistic signatures will meet at the Kulturforum Klosterkirche Traunstein: pianist Chenny Gan and violinist Regine Schmitt-Welsch will present a chamber music evening in support of the association Together Against Cancer e.V. The historic ambiance of the Klosterkirche, the excellent acoustics, and a carefully curated program promise an intense concert experience.

Sound colors that carry: Piano meets violin

The live atmosphere of the Klosterkirche allows even subtle nuances to be heard. Gan's fluid touch and her sense of orchestration at the piano combine with Schmitt-Welsch's warm, resonant violin tone to create a finely balanced synchronization. Thus, chamber music is born that breathes: dialogical, pulsating, with clear dramaturgy and attentive 'conducting' from the duo.

Profile with format: International experience and regional anchoring

Chenny Gan, Associate Professor at the Wesleyan College Conservatory Division in Macon (USA), has performed with solo and orchestral projects in Europe, Asia, and North America. Her repertoire spans classical literature to interactive concert formats. Regine Schmitt-Welsch studied in Würzburg, worked for many years in the Frankfurt Opera and Museum Orchestra, guest-starred with top orchestras, and has been playing in the Bayreuth Festival Orchestra since 2017. As a chamber musician, she impresses with stylistic knowledge from Baroque to modern.

Audience mood: Closeness, intensity, goosebumps

Those who know the Klosterkirche know: the room responds to every phrasing. When the violin seems to shine in the dome and the piano builds the sound architecture underneath, a dense audience atmosphere arises – driven by fine dynamics, clear sound, and a stage that allows for intimacy.

Comfort on site: Admission, service, travel

Admission begins one hour before the concert starts, hall entry is usually 30 minutes prior. A free cloakroom is available in the basement. The location is accessible (elevator, accessible toilet). Parking is possible within walking distance – including in the underground garages Rathaus and Bahnhof as well as at Karl-Theodor-Platz; the Traunstein train station is about 400 meters away.

Conclusion

A benefit evening that goes under the skin: pianistic elegance, violinistic expressiveness, and a space that lets music shine. Anyone who wishes to experience chamber music in its most direct form should secure this date.
