A person can lose so much: keys or small change, nerves or courage, memories, home, freedom, dignity. And, although we often don't want to admit it: one day, even life. On the other hand, one can also lose inhibitions, leave something burdening behind, and look forward with freshness and freedom. The Elbphilharmonie's community project offers creative Hamburg residents aged 16 and over the opportunity to explore these topics from different perspectives, together with professional artists. They will present their results as a performance in the Recital Hall, accompanied by the Ensemble Shiraz.

The Artelize Podcast: A love letter that was never sent

‘A narrative of the soul’ was how one critic described a recent Glasgow performance by Ethan Loch, and there’s no question that this young Scottish pianist (who has become a nationwide star since his triumph in BBC Young Musician in 2022) has something very special to say. Today, he lavishes all his artistry on Debussy’s shimmering musical pictures and premieres a new creation of his own: a ‘dance drama’ inspired by the sea and brought to life by ballet dancer Antonia Cramb.

Glasgow Royal Concert Hall

When people sing together, something happens. It strengthens mental health, activates both body and mind, and singing together releases “happy hormones” that improve your mood and reduce stress.

Under the title Sing! Sing! Sing! we invite you to a concert where the audience themselves perform. Under the competent guidance of singing instructor Line Groth, you will learn one of the great pop songs of the day, and after a few hours we will be ready to sing the song together.

All participants meet at 7 pm with singing instructor, Line Groth, who over the next two hours will teach us today's choir arrangement - which has been written for the purpose and adapted to the level. The repertoire is one of the great pop hits of the time - often by Danish artists.

Ben Rector makes his return to the symphony stage in 2026. The singer-songwriter has independently released seven studio albums including Brand New and Magic which both charted #1 on the US Folk and #2 on the US Rock and US Indie Billboard chart. His songs have received both RIAA Gold and RIAA Platinum certifications, amassing more than a billion streams, and have been licensed in more than 100 ad campaigns, television shows, and movies.

In Symphonies Across America, audiences will experience a new dimension to Ben’s music only experienced at the symphony. Pulling from more than 15 years of cross-country travel as a touring artist, Rector masterfully brings anthem sing-a-longs, quippy humor and deep, meaningful lyrics—all beautifully backed by orchestra arrangements. Joining Ben on his symphony tour across America is his good friend, Jon McLaughlin. Jon’s recently released album, Scenarios (October 2025), marks a bold new chapter, featuring brand-new songs that showcase both his storytelling and signature piano-driven sound. No stranger to the symphony stage, Jon’s depth and talent is sure to create a perfect complement to Ben on stage.

In this original rock revue, we get to be a fly on the wall on a truly wacky farm in Wittenförden. Overworked people and highly sensitive animals sing about their joys and sorrows in the countryside. Cows vehemently rebel against classical music in the barn and demand "hard rock instead of Mozart." Three desperate pigs threaten to call Amnesty International when faced with the butcher. The Polish farmhand would love to leave the farm again, and who would have thought that the farmer's wife, Alma, used to be a fixture at the village disco? A dreamy mole longs to migrate south like a bird, and the enchanting farmer's daughter, Anja, sings about her big heart for all animals in a big cheerleader number... In short: on this farm, things really get wild.

If the phrase “male a cappella group” conjures up an image of students in blue blazers, ties, and khakis singing traditional college songs on ivied campuses… think again. Straight No Chaser (SNC) are neither strait-laced nor straight-faced, but neither are they vaudeville-style kitsch. They have emerged as a phenomenon with a massive fanbase and a long list of accomplishments including 2 RIAA Gold Certified albums, over 1.5 million concert tickets sold, over 1 billion streams on Pandora, and over 2 million albums sold worldwide. Straight No Chaser is the real deal, the captivating sound of nine unadulterated human voices coming together to make extraordinary music that is moving people in a fundamental sense… and with a sense of humor.

Insects do not have the best reputation with people. They sting and bite, crawl into corners and crevices and, with their spindly legs and antennae, are simply just disgusting - that is the commonly held perception. At the same time, many insects are extremely important for ecological balance! Beetles, for instance, break up the soil, compost waste, contribute to the pollination of plants and control pests. The band Bad Bugs gives a voice to the oppressed – and fights back against the fact that more and more habitats for insects are being destroyed. With synthesisers, electric guitars and their voices, they bring the »Underground Sound« of the world of bugs onto the stage and musically present their way of looking at things. They do not wish to be repressed any longer! Together with the audience, they transform their environment so that everyone feels comfortable within it, people and animals alike.

Twinkle Concert L / Bad Bugs

The Canadian trumpeter and composer Kenny Wheeler (1930 - 2014) was one of the quieter but all the more powerful figures in jazz. His move to Great Britain in 1952 was what we would today call a »match«, a happy and momentous encounter. A lyrical melancholic (»sad music makes me happy«) met the hard-hitting sound and broad rhythm of northern English brass bands and, with an irrepressible desire for freedom, mixed some of the most important and influential large ensemble recordings of the last 60 years.
