Making Waves

If you want to hear a composer who made waves in their time and beyond, the Beach is a great place to start—Amy Beach, to be exact!

Beerthoven's 2025-2026 Season continues with the Austin-based piano trio Triple Take, featuring pianist Maimy Fong, cellist Elizabeth Lee, and violinist Javier Chaparro. Making Waves will present three piano trios by women whose works continue to resonate, including Amy Beach, Cécile Chaminade, and Agnes Zimmermann.

Thanks to our sponsors, we will be serving warm pastries and cold beer generously provided by Easy Tiger and Lazarus Brewing as well as wine and non-alcoholic beverages—all at no additional cost!

This event will take place at the historic Saengerrunde Hall in downtown Austin; home to Austin's oldest cultural institution, the German singing society the Austin Saengerrunde. Experience Beerthoven in the heart of the Live Music Capital of the World!

Kids are welcome! Tickets for children as well as students through college age are available for $10. Purchase at the door or email daniel@beerthoven.com for advance student tickets.

Parking Info:

Look for parking in the state parking garages immediately surrounding the Saengerrunde facilities. During most of our events these are open and free of charge. Sometimes there is a parking attendant charging $30, especially when concurrent events take place at the Moody Center. In that case, you may look for parking on street or at the Capitol Visitors Parking Garage, three blocks south of the Saengerrunde on San Jacinto (this is typically free). The Bullock Museum also offers an inexpensive parking option.

About Beerthoven:

The critically acclaimed Beerthoven Concert Series is a down-to-earth, approachable celebration of classical song, chamber music, and beer; a quirky mixture of Bach and Doppelbock in unique and intimate settings. Beerthoven finds its inspiration in the musical and festive events of the Austin Saengerrunde as well as the private "salon" concerts of Beethoven's time. Beerthoven events feature live classical music, free beer, and other refreshments and snacks in an all-inclusive manner. There is no backstage here; audience members may even find themselves standing in line for beer with the performers.

Programming is intentionally diverse in tone, instrumentation, and featured performers. Beerthoven supports local artists by offering fair compensation and unique performance venues. Audience members will find our prices at the very low end of typical classical concerts—especially for students and especially given the high quality of the exbeerience. Learn more at beerthoven.com
