Glorious Opera Gala in Passau: The Spring Gala at the City Theater
An evening for great emotions: On January 18, 2026, the Spring Gala of the State Theater of Lower Bavaria returns to the Passau City Theater. The Lower Bavarian Philharmonic unfolds festive sounds under the musical direction of GMD Basil H. E. Coleman; soloists guide through a program of opera, operetta, and orchestral bravura pieces. A concert experience that combines acoustic precision and stage magic.
Live Atmosphere in the Prince-Bishop's Opera House
The historic architecture of the City Theater creates proximity to the stage: warm acoustics, clear projection of voices, beautiful orchestral image. Light effects and precise conducting synchronize into a captivating stage performance – felt from the first beat to the last applause.
Sound Colors, Arias, Orchestral Colors
Opera highlights, waltzes, and overtures alternate. Radiant bel canto lines meet dance-like orchestration, fine woodwind solos meet cultivated strings. This creates a dramatic curve that pulses between lyrical intimacy and symphonic brilliance – concertant, precise, vibrant.
Orchestra & Conducting
The Lower Bavarian Philharmonic presents the range of its repertoire. GMD Basil H. E. Coleman controls tempo, articulation, and balance, confidently guiding soloists through dynamic crescendos and subtle rubati. The result: a polished sound that connects tradition and the present.
Audience Atmosphere and Acoustics
The audience atmosphere is supportive: short changes, confident moderation, clear sightlines. The hall makes details audible – the breath of the singers, the phrasing of the strings, precise accents from the cembalo and harp. A concert experience with close-up character.
Conclusion
What can visitors expect? A festive evening with operatic romanticism, orchestral elegance, and vocal virtuosity – served concertantly in the most beautiful setting of Passau. Secure your seats now and experience the Spring Gala live.
