A musical dialogue full of sound colors in the Red Hall

With In Dialogue: Flute & Bassoon, the Hochschule für Musik Mainz opens an evening for fine chamber music, transparent lines, and a concentrated live atmosphere on December 16, 2026. Students from the class of Prof. Dejan Gavric and Prof. Axel Benoit will perform, accompanied on the piano by Polina Grishaeva. The Red Hall on the JGU campus is made for such formats: close, precise, acoustically direct.

Fine chamber music, great impact

When flute and bassoon meet, there is no loud effect but rather a chamber music interplay with character. The high, floating color of the flute meets the warm, distinctive foundation of the bassoon. Especially in an intimate hall like the Red Hall, this orchestration unfolds particularly impressively on a small scale: every phrase has contour, every breath movement has noticeable presence.

The Red Hall as an ideal stage

The Hochschule für Musik Mainz is closely connected to Johannes Gutenberg University and is considered a vibrant place for concerts, teaching, and artistic practice. The Red Hall in the building at Jakob-Welder-Weg 28, 55128 Mainz provides a suitable environment for this: campus-close, easily accessible, and well embedded in the everyday life of the HfM. Those who love chamber music do not experience distance here, but direct audience atmosphere and clear musical contours.

Students with profile

Such evenings show how strongly HfM Mainz shapes young musicians in stage performance. The focus is on sound balance, synchronization, and stylistic control - the foundations of a convincing concert experience. The audience does not experience a mere exhibition of works, but a lively snapshot of musical development, driven by concentration and joy of playing.

An evening for listeners with a fine ear

In Dialogue: Flute & Bassoon promises a compact, demanding yet accessible concert format. Those who appreciate chamber music precision, tonal nuances, and the special closeness between stage and hall should mark this date. Mainz thus gets an evening that highlights the interplay of talent, education, and live magic.

Conclusion: This concert evening combines young elite promotion with a strong musical idea. Flute, bassoon, and piano meet in the Red Hall with an audience seeking intensity rather than volume - an event that should be experienced live.
