Concerts for Hamburg
NDR Bigband / Gary Husband / Niels Klein
The »Concerts for Hamburg« programme is not limited to classical music in 2019: the NDR Bigband is comes on board for two concerts. Big band means swing rhythms, powerful brass sounds and lots of fun. Under the simple title »Selfies«, the members of the NDR Bigband show that music is not only their profession but also a passion. Ranging from the glamorous to the groovy, the soloists present their own compositions and personal favourites, conducted by Niels Klein.
In the wake of its overwhelming success in past years, a third season of the concert series aimed at newcomers will be put on in 2019: an hour of classical music in the Grand Hall of the Elbphilharmonie – no dress regulations, no rules of etiquette, just a relaxed atmosphere! This time the programme is not entirely composed of classical music: the NDR Bigband can be heard as part of the series for the first time.
