Philharmonisches Orchester Gießen live in Kiel

Experience Philharmonisches Orchester Gießen live on September 19th

Philharmonisches Orchester Gießen, founded in 1946, is a German orchestra with a broad repertoire encompassing works from the Baroque period through contemporary compositions. While maintaining a strong foundation in classical and romantic orchestral literature, the ensemble frequently performs music by 20th and 21st-century composers, often commissioning new works and engaging in projects that explore innovative musical approaches. The orchestra is known for its versatility and commitment to both established masterpieces and lesser-known scores.

The performance on September 19, 2026, will take place at Opernhaus Kiel. Originally constructed in 1905, the Opernhaus Kiel underwent extensive renovations completed in 2008, modernizing its technical capabilities while preserving its historical architectural features. It is notable for its horseshoe-shaped auditorium providing excellent acoustics and sightlines. Throughout its history, the Opernhaus Kiel has hosted a diverse range of operatic and orchestral performances, establishing itself as a significant cultural venue in northern Germany. The building itself represents a blend of Art Nouveau and Neoclassical styles.
