Spanish Guitar Poetry in the Vault: Carles Trepat in Traunstein

On Sunday, March 1, 2026, the Spanish guitar poet Carles Trepat fills the venerable monastery church of the Kulturforum Traunstein with warm, singing tones. Using historical instruments, he unfolds a program between elegance and passion – a concert experience that makes the unique acoustics of the former Capuchin church a participant.

Colors of Sound that Shine

Trepat, born in 1960 in Lleida, is considered a master of fine nuances. His sound arises from controlled articulation, natural orchestration, and a stage performance that emphasizes closeness rather than effects. As the first notes sparkle, a live atmosphere expands: the audience's mood shifts from tense silence to audible enthusiasm.

Journey through Spanish Guitar Tradition

The program takes listeners through the Iberian sound world – with works by Fernando Sor and Domenico Scarlatti to Miguel Llobet and José Tárrega to Manuel de Falla, Ángel Barrios, Mangoré Sainz de la Maza, and more. Trepat not only plays these scores but tells their origins: phrasing as breath, rubato as light change, synchronization of the right and left hand like precise conducting.

Historical Instruments, Timeless Intensity

Trepat became famous for interpretations on historical guitars – such as an Antonio Torres guitar from 1892 with gut strings. This choice shapes the sound: transparent bass, creamy mids, soft lows. In the monastery church, every line carries to the last row; resonances weave into a shimmering echo carpet.

Awards, Classification, Repertoire Depth

Trepat won, among others, the Premio Tárrega at the international competition in Benicàssim and received the José Tomás Honorary Award in 2014. His discography ranges from 'Música espanyola per a guitarra' to Mompou recordings to 'Granados-Llobet: …100 años de un viaje'. Reviews highlight his delicate sound culture, stylistic authenticity, and precisely edited text treatment.

Venue with Character: Kulturforum Monastery Church

The modernized, listed monastery church connects historical aura with contemporary stage technology. Row seating for about 300 visitors, clear sightlines, quiet hall acoustics – ideal conditions for a focused listening experience. Admission typically starts 60 minutes before the concert begins; hall entry usually follows about 30 minutes prior. Cloakroom services are free, and the venue is accessible with an elevator.
