SUMMER FAIRY TALE
“Summertime” is the first of two summer serenades in Baden’s Kurpark in 2026! On Saturday, August 22, this concert will be nothing less than a gathering of the international brass elite. Four “superstars”—David Taylor (iconic bass trombonist and legend of the New York scene), Alex Sipiagin (virtuoso jazz trumpeter), Sergej Nakariakov (world-renowned trumpet virtuoso), and Daniel Schnyder (New York saxophonist, acclaimed composer, and arranger)—will take center stage together this evening. The 12-member international brass ensemble also features hand-picked young talents from the brass scene.
Gershwin and jazzy echoes of George Shearing, a fiery “Danza del Fuego” bursting with rhythm and energy, “Mozart Interludes,” and “Vivaldi Revisited” cast classics in a new light, while “CUBAC” blends Bach with a Cuban groove and playfully celebrates the boundaries between the concert hall and the open-air festival. The result is a serenade in which stars and rising talents, classical music and jazz, virtuosity and that summer feeling come together to create a rich, sparkling “Summertime” experience—right in the heart of Baden’s atmospheric spa gardens.

SUMMER FAIRY TALE
On Sunday, August 23, the Summer Serenade in Baden’s Kurpark will transport you to the heart of Romanticism: Beethoven’s Sixth Symphony, the “Pastoral,” in a celebrated chamber music arrangement designed as a country outing, where the sounds of birdsong, the murmur of a stream, and distant thunderstorms can be experienced in the open atmosphere of the spa park; this music seems to grow directly from the surrounding nature and transforms the open-air theater into a musical narrative. Tchaikovsky’s “Souvenir de Florence” strikes a very personal note: it is Tchaikovsky’s stormy, passionate recollection of his summer fairy tale in Florence, a fervent, rhythmically energetic declaration of love to the Tuscan metropolis. The result is a highly virtuosic finale in which longing, exuberance, and a zest for life coalesce into an intense, summery sound.wikipedia+4
This evening is brought to life by the CHAARTS chamber artists, the internationally diverse ensemble from Aargau known for its rich orchestral sound. At the helm are six outstanding soloists: Abigel Kralik (USA/Hungary) and Eoin Ducrot (Ireland) on violin, Mathis Rochat (Switzerland) and Pietro Montemagni (Italy) on the viola, and Milena Marena (Switzerland) and Andreas Fleck (Germany) on the cello, who together illuminate these two masterpieces with stupendous virtuosity and great emotional range.
Ludwig van Beethoven (1770–1827)
Symphony No. 6 in F major, Op. 68, “Pastoral” (1810 version)
