Cuddle concert

In this series, small ensembles and soloists from the various departments of the Haus der Musik Innsbruck fill the small hall, which is equipped for babies. The six cozy concerts feature varied, age-appropriate concert programs lasting around 30–40 minutes, ranging from classical music to jazz and folk music. Music educator Sascha Rathey (flutist with the TSOI) guides the audience through the concerts and works with the musicians to put together a suitable program.

Edoné Quartet
Selina Danzl, Laetitia Praxmarer, Hanna Messner, Katharina Lardschneider (flutes)

Founded in 2021, the Edoné Quartet consists of Selina
Danzl, Laetitia Praxmarer, Hanna Messner, and Katharina Lardschneider. As the name of their ensemble, Edoné ("preference, enthusiasm"), suggests, the four flutists share a great passion, namely the joy of making music together. They met while studying at the Tyrolean State Conservatory and the Mozarteum. For the cozy concert, they are expanding their repertoire to include pieces with vocals and piano!

"CaraMellas" Solo & Trio
Carina Köninger (horn), Melanie Rigo (clarinet), Alexandra Milborn (piano)

An exciting combination of clarinet, horn, piano, and vocals enchants not only as an ensemble but also in various solo parts. From classical composers such as Mozart to modern literature, everything is represented in a colorful mix. The three students Alexandra, Melanie, and Carina, who are studying for their Master's degree in IGP at the Mozarteum in Innsbruck, are looking forward to a cozy concert together with all visitors, young and old.

"String Sounds"
Hannah Rabl (harp), Amelie Schuster (violin)

Hannah and Amelie know each other from studying instrumental and vocal pedagogy together at the Mozarteum. The two students have been performing as a duo since spring 2024. On the concert harp and violin, they play well-known and lesser-known melodies from classical, folk, and pop music. Hannah and Amelie primarily play calm and romantic pieces from the classical repertoire, but of course they also include a little "showstopper," a cheerful and lively piece of music. From dreamy and melancholic to fiery and cheeky sounds, the duo brings a diverse program to the stage. The gentle tones of the harp and violin invite you to listen and immerse yourself in the world of sound for 30 minutes.

The musical toolbox – pieces for flute, cello, andpiano
Pantxoa Urtizberea (flute), Jakob Mitterer (cello), Nika Afazel (piano)

Just like in real life, there are things in the world of music that you hear more often than others. While you might encounter a string quartet every now and then, you probably have to search longer before you hear the combination of flute, cello, and piano. What a shame! Because the combination of these three instruments is like a small orchestra. All timbres are there, all instrument groups are represented.

The flute whistles in the high register, the cello hums in the low register, and the piano hammers—sometimes loudly, sometimes softly—across all registers. This combination is therefore something like a small toolbox for composers.
In this concert, the audience can therefore expect to hear composers from past centuries who worked with these musical tools and crafted the most beautiful melodies.

Music from five centuries for cello and more...

Duo Lumina
Greta Franzelin (saxophone), Sophie Oberleitner (guitar)

Guitar and saxophone—a rather unusual combination! And that's exactly why guitarist Sophie Oberleitner and saxophonist Greta Franzelin have arranged a program that takes them on a colorful journey of sound. The program features calm, meditative sounds, rhythmic melodies from Argentine tango and Eastern European folklore, as well as some well-known tunes – a colorful interplay of musical diversity.
