The piano quartet takes centre stage, with works by Mozart and the young Richard Strauss that build a bridge from Viennese Classicism to late Romanticism. The centrepiece of the evening is Beethoven's "Duet for two obbligato eyeglasses" for viola and cello - a subtle and humorous dialogue between two related voices.

Founded by the pianist Biliana Tzinlikova, the violinist Klara Flieder and the cellist Christophe Pantillon, the Ehrbar Chamber Music Society (ECMS) has now established a clear artistic profile. This season's programme features familiar, already esteemed musicians as well as new names that add exciting perspectives to the series.
The promotion of young talent remains a central concern and an essential part of the artistic vision. Performers will include the multi-award-winning Austrian violinist Leonhard Baumgartner with duo partner Liam Dugelay and mezzo-soprano Maria Hegele, winner of the Haydn Singing Competition 2025.
The ECMS stands for stylistic diversity, artistic excellence and inspiring, friendly musical encounters on stage. The great standard literature of piano chamber music continues to shine at the centre of the concert series - enriched by rarities on the fringes of the established repertoire.
The Ehrbar Saal has become one of the most popular venues for the performance of top-class chamber music in Vienna, and the Ehrbar Chamber Music Society has become a centre of attraction for a discerning audience.
