Jenaer Philharmonie live in Jena

Experience Jenaer Philharmonie live on September 13th

Jenaer Philharmonie, the resident orchestra of Jena, Germany, typically performs a repertoire spanning from Baroque to contemporary classical music, with a noted focus on works by German composers and frequently incorporating pieces by composers with connections to the region of Thuringia. The orchestra is known for its versatility, engaging in both symphonic concerts and collaborative projects across various artistic disciplines.

The concert on September 13th, 2026 will be held at Volkshaus Jena. Originally constructed in 1925-1926 based on plans by architect Wilhelm Kreis, the Volkshaus was designed as a multi-purpose venue intended to foster civic engagement and cultural life. Its architectural style reflects elements of Expressionism and New Objectivity. Throughout its history, it has served as a site for political assemblies, trade union meetings, celebrations and cultural events.

Following extensive renovations completed in 2023, the Volkshaus now functions as a modern event location while retaining its historical significance. The building features a large hall suitable for orchestral performances alongside smaller rooms for diverse events. The acoustics of the main hall have been updated to accommodate high-quality musical presentations.
