Klang•Punkte 2026 - „La Mandolina Española“

The mandolin takes center stage in a lively journey through the musical landscapes of the Iberian Peninsula.

FeaturingAlon Sariel and Ensemble(Vincent Kibildis (harp), Elias Conrad (theorbo/guitar), and Tobias Steinberger (percussion)).

In the hands of Alon Sariel, the mandolin becomes more than just an instrument—it becomes a voice for centuries of tradition, invention, and change. From the refined elegance of Renaissance masters such as Antonio de Cabezón and Diego Ortiz to the National School of the early 20th century, featuring Albéniz, Sarasate, and Tárrega, this program unfolds the rich and diverse tapestry of Spanish music. 

Along the way, it also encounters the melancholic beauty of Sephardic melodies—echoes of a world shaped by migration, memory, and resilience.
