Classical Music Reimagined

Felix Reuter combines classical music with wit, spontaneity, and musical curiosity. A pianist, composer, and improviser trained in Weimar, he moves fluidly between classical concert, improvisation, and musical storytelling - in 2025 also serving as ambassador for Johann Sebastian Bach at EXPO in Osaka. For many years, he has developed formats where musical precision meets engaging knowledge transfer.

In "Classical Music Reimagined," Reuter poses questions rarely asked at classical concerts: How did Mozart's "Eine kleine Nachtmusik" come about? And what would Frank Sinatra have discussed with Franz Liszt? Reuter plays, narrates, improvises, and opens fresh perspectives on familiar works and composers - with wit, pace, and deep musical knowledge. This is not parody, but a playful approach to musical understanding and listening habits.

The Johann-Rist-Forum, with its magnificent Steinway grand piano, provides the perfect setting for this venture. An evening for seasoned concert-goers and for anyone who wants to experience classical music differently - entertaining, surprising, and with a musician who captivates the audience through knowledge, wit, and the joy of playing.
