Almost as if she had the Elbphilharmonie in mind as a possible performance venue, the NDR composer in residence Unsuk Chin has dedicated one of her works to the water spirits, or sirens to be more precise. The mythical femmes fatales are a byword for (acoustic) temptation. But how does their song actually sound? To find the answer, the South Korean composer consulted Odysseus, who had himself tied to a ship’s mast so that he could listen to the sirens in safety. Chin captures all the diverse facets of their song with fluorescent brilliance.

Iannis Xenakis: Architect of Sound

Resounding walls and audible spaces: in the work of Iannis Xenakis, music and architecture merge. #NewMusic #Portrait #HistoryOfMusic

Location : Elbphilharmonie Hamburg
Großer Saal

Heart of the Elbphilharmonie: the Grand Hall seats 2,000 guests in the »vineyard« style. The stage for artists and orchestras is situated at the centre of the concert hall and is surrounded by terraced seating.

Finding Your Seat

All visitors enter the building via the main entrance. Admission takes place in the entrance foyer and is by concert ticket only. The »Tube«, an 82-metre-long, curved escalator, leads visitors up to the Plaza following admission.

From the Plaza, access to the concert foyers is via stairs and lifts. The main cloakroom is situated on the 11th floor and the hall entrances are on floors 12, 13, 15 and 16. Please follow signs to the area in which your designated seat is located, as indicated on your ticket.
Cloakroom

Please note that, during the coronavirus period, the cloakrooms in the Elbphilharmonie remain closed. Jackets and small handbags can be taken into the hall. Umbrellas, bags sized A3 and bigger, and luggage and other bulky items must be stored in the lockers in the corridor on the right next to the large escalator on the ground floor/entrance area.

Coughing, Clapping, Chatting – Recommendations for Sensitive Acoustics

A concert at the Elbphilharmonie is a unique experience for both audience and artists. Guests and musicians alike rave about the precise acoustics in the Grand Hall. You can hear every note, even from the highest balcony.

Unfortunately, the opposite is also true: even presumably quiet noises from the audience are clearly audible in the entire hall. We therefore ask our visitors to take the following recommendations into consideration, because »Everything Can Be Heard Here«.
