The holidays are hardly over and we already have the first confirmations for Reeperbahn Festival 2019! When the Elbphilharmonie became one of the venues of elaborately arranged concert nights in the course of the Reeperbahn Festival last year the response was fantastic. This year, it will again be a special element of the festival programme. You can start now and make reservations for three concerts at the philharmonic hall.

Friday, 20 September:
20:30 pm         Anna Ternheim vs. Kaiser Quartett
midnight          Lisa Morgenstern

Saturday, 21 September:
22:30 pm         Efterklang

It may not come as a surprise if Anna Ternheim and Efterklang flood the large concert hall with unconventional emotions. Rating: Particularly touching. Both concerts are world premieres, specially arranged for the festival and the Elbphilharmonie setting. Anna Ternheim will perform together with the Kaiser Quartett, while the Belgian ensemble B.O.X. will complement the setup of Efterklang (Photo). And because the Danes feel that people behind the scenes of a cultural site such as the Elbphilharmonie still don't get enough attention, they will invite members of the cleaning team to accompany some of their songs as a choir. A novelty that we will celebrate.

The third act is the Berlin pianist Lisa Morgenstern who will present her album "Chameleon", announced for 2019, on which the composer and insider tip will perform her incomparably enchanting songs at the piano and synthesizers to perfection. Ageless as the Weinberg architecture of the large philharmonic concert hall, Morgenstern's music will be an appropriate addition to the programme, a reason for great anticipation.

The Reservation System
All Reeperbahn Festival ticket holders who purchase their tickets by 9 January 2019 and are among the first 5,700 people to purchase a 4-, 3- or 2-Day-Ticket or a 1-Day-Ticket for Friday or Saturday were automatically emailed a personalised access link by 10:00 AM on 10 January 2019 that allows them to reserve one Elbphilharmonie concert per Reeperbahn Festival Ticket. The reservation must be made between 10 January, 2:00 PM, and 7 February 2019, 6:00 PM.
