At this concert, the BFO will take us on a musical journey along the Rhine, both to its banks – in the form of Schumann’s symphony inspired by some pleasant experiences there – and its depths, with a scene from Wagner.

His deeply human story is dedicated to the remembrance of his uncle who was a young budding pianist at ...

Pina Bausch was one of the most influential dancers and choreographers of the 20th century, the creator of epoch-making productions of dance theatre, and it is perhaps no exaggeration to say that her magnus opus was the Tanztheater Wuppertal itself, which from the early 1970s on she transformed into an extremely important centre of modern dance.
Although she passed away more than fifteen ...
