We captivate your audience wherever we perform – whether in large concert halls, on festival stages or in intimate off-venues. The Stegreif Orchester radically breaks with the conventions of traditional concert performance: without sheet music, without chairs and without a conductor, we move freely around the space and create a three-dimensional, immediately palpable connection with the audience.For 2027/28, we’re bringing a diverse portfolio of cross-genre productions, offering exactly the right production scale for every venue and every space.
For small venues, we present a subtle seven-piece ensemble with explore_händel, which transforms more intimate spaces into exciting soundscapes ranging from Baroque to jazz. For medium-sized stages, productions such as freeBach [WT], feel:free, echo:chamber and freemahler unfold their dynamic and multi-layered appeal. And for the very large halls and festival stages, we bring the full orchestral line-up – expanded to include electric guitar, saxophone and drums – to the stage. In bfree, escape valse, freeEroica and freebruckner, 26 musicians fuse the sound of a classical orchestra with jazz, folk, pop, techno or even dance to create a modern, symphonic and performative force of nature. Whether in open spaces without seating, in a traditional auditorium, or complemented by interactive community projects and music mediation – we have the right format for every venue.
Show your audience what dynamic orchestral formats can look, sound and feel like today, and let’s create unforgettable musical experiences together!
