When Strings and Breath Find a Common Language

On Saturday, October 10, 2026, the historic Rochus Chapel in Landshut transforms into a resonant space for rare timbres and musical encounters. Valentina Bellanova and Markus Wach present their program String Sounds and Breath as part of the Autumn Concerts series Paths to One Another.

Traditional Instruments, Newly Heard

Valentina Bellanova is among the prominent Ney players in Europe. The Italy-born musician combines Turkish and Arabic Ney sounds with her training in recorder, early music, and medieval music. Markus Wach explores traditional string instruments from Central Asia and develops an independent sound language between world music, improvisation, and composition.

A Musical Dialogue Full of Nuances

In the Rochus Chapel, breath, wood, reeds, and strings converge. Bellanova's Ney unfolds a warm, almost human-like sound, while Wach's instruments narrate tales of vast landscapes, cultural heritage, and musical curiosity. The orchestration of these different sound worlds creates an immediate dialogue: sometimes dance-like and captivating, other times calm, archaic, and imbued with subtle melancholy.

World Music in a Gothic Setting

The listed Rochus Chapel, with its special acoustics and almost intimate atmosphere, provides the perfect setting for this concert experience. The historic space enhances the natural dynamics of the instruments and also allows the faintest sounds of breath, string vibrations, and rhythmic impulses to resonate. The audience does not experience a distant stage performance, but a focused encounter with music, instruments, and origins.

Between Early Music, the Middle East, and Central Asia

Bellanova's musical work traverses classical, medieval, and transcultural music realms. She has performed in renowned venues such as the Elbphilharmonie Hamburg, the Berlin Philharmonie, and the Deutsche Oper Berlin, and has played the Istanbul Symphony by Fazıl Say multiple times with German orchestras. Markus Wach represents the engagement with rare instruments, Central Asian sound traditions, free improvisation, and contemporary composition.

Conclusion: An Evening of Concerts for Open Ears

String Sounds and Breath promises a musical journey through melodies whose roots lie long before modern notation. Those who appreciate world music, historical instruments, and extraordinary live atmosphere will experience an evening full of closeness, sound depth, and cultural connection in Landshut.
