Free Advent Concerts

 

We are already half way through Advent but PollyEster sent us a great tip about the Musical Advent Calendar concerts going on every day up to Christmas. You can see the list of concerts here  – they range from classical, rock, choir  to brass bands. Entrance is free (you can give donations on your way out).  Many are in the Altstädter Nikolaikirche so very convenient for the Weihnachtsmarkt too.

 

Wednesday Night Concerts

Teresa has the following tip about the Wednesday concerts at Rudolf Oetker Halle, (middle Wednesday of each month 8 pm). They are also broadcast live on WDR  3 radio and the best part is tickets are only €5!  They showcase music from around the world and have a great schedule of musicians from all different musical backgrounds. You can pick tickets up at the tourist information office, I hear they are very popular.
