OPERcussion – Original Grooves | Überschlag Festival 2026

In the organizer's words:

OPERcussion brings the percussion from the orchestra pit to the stage.

‍

What usually happens in the background becomes the focus here: rhythm, groove, movement.

The Bavarian State Opera ensemble moves effortlessly between Bach, jazz and Latin American influences. Baroque meets Chick Corea, Piazzolla meets improvised passages - all reimagined for percussion.

It's virtuoso, surprising and full of energy.

And above all: extremely well played.
