A winter piano recital full of poetry: from mysterious nights, lullabies and festive soundscapes to Schubert's timeless depths - a touching, truly magical winter sound.

A piano recital like a journey through the moods of winter: Fanny Hensel's "December" opens the program, Holmès paints the mysterious Christmas night, Florence Price touches with an intimate spiritual. Gentle lullabies and frosty soundscapes by Leite, Bilbro, Beach and Backer-Grøndahl meet festive miniatures by Klein-Schäfer, Känzig and Schwartz. Schubert's impromptus allow the diversity of the evening to shine in timeless depth - truly magical (in the first part works of 2-5 minutes and as a crowning finale approx. 30 minutes of Schubert).

Aperitif & 3-course festive menu, incl. mineral water (discounts for children and young people). The price is due to the greater expense for the external catering and the rental of the Villa St. Charles Hall. It is a unique experience to be pampered with culinary delights in the Wienersaal and/or Gobelin Room.

How to get there: S3 or Voralpenexpress to Meggen Zentrum or bus 24 to the Kapelle stop; from there approx. 4-7 minutes' walk. By car (destination: Benzeholzstrasse 41): there are a limited number of parking spaces in front of St. Charles Hall; there are public parking spaces in the immediate vicinity of the parking facility (Fridolin-Hoferstrasse; along the lake, by the outdoor pool). The underground car park in the village center is also available (5 to 8 minutes' walk from there) via Kapelle / Benzeholzstrasse.
