When symphonic brass music creates images
On Sunday, November 8, 2026, the MON District Orchestra Donau-Wald in Deggendorf combines sonorous symphonic brass music with visual art. The concert Images in the Mind takes the audience to the auditorium of the Robert Koch Gymnasium and makes music the starting point for their own inner images.
Mussorgsky's Pictures at an Exhibition as the musical center
At the center is Modest Mussorgsky's famous cycle Pictures at an Exhibition in an arrangement for symphonic brass orchestra by Tohru Takahashi. The distinctive timbres of the work meet ten new images from artists of the Deggendorf Art Association, which will be presented alongside the concert.
From full sail to grand film music
The program opens the musical space wide: In addition to Mussorgsky's work, Karl Strobl's march With Full Sails will also be heard. The film music from Avengers: Endgame by Alan Silvestri is part of the concert program and brings a modern, powerful sound language to the event.
A selection orchestra from the region
The District Orchestra Donau-Wald brings together musicians aged 15 to 70 from the districts of Deggendorf, Regen, and Straubing-Bogen. The musical direction is taken by Christian Janker. Birgit Tomys from Bavarian Radio will host the program. This combination of regional roots, ambitious orchestral work, and visual art shapes the unique event experience.
Event atmosphere and audience mood
As brass sounds carry through the auditorium and simultaneously draw attention to new artworks, a multi-layered event atmosphere arises. The event planning focuses on the dialogue between hearing and seeing: well-known melodies, symphonic dynamics, and expressive images appeal to different senses. The concert is suitable for music lovers, families, and anyone who wants to experience classical works in an open, modern concert format.
Conclusion: Experience music live, retain images in the mind
Images in the Mind promises a concert with strong contrasts, regional commitment, and an unusual connection of orchestral sound and art. Those who want to discover symphonic brass music, film music, and visual art in a shared event experience will have a special concert morning in Deggendorf on November 8.
