Experience hr-Sinfonieorchester live on September 22nd

hr-Sinfonieorchester, the symphony orchestra of Hessischer Rundfunk (Hessian Broadcasting), is scheduled to perform at the Casals Forum in Kronberg im Taunus on September 22, 2026. The orchestra is known for its broad repertoire spanning from Baroque to contemporary works, with a particular focus on German Romantic and 20th/21st-century compositions. They frequently collaborate with internationally renowned soloists and conductors, and are recognized for their high artistic standards and innovative concert formats.

The Casals Forum itself opened in 2002 and is dedicated to fostering young cello talent, stemming from the legacy of Pablo Casals who lived in Kronberg for many years. The Forum houses a world-class concert hall specifically designed for chamber music and intimate orchestral performances, prioritizing exceptional acoustics. It’s not solely a performance venue; it also functions as a teaching and research center for cello studies. The building's architecture reflects a modern aesthetic while integrating into the surrounding landscape. The hall’s capacity is relatively small, creating an exceptionally close connection between performers and audience. It regularly hosts masterclasses, workshops, and recitals alongside orchestral concerts.
