World-famous lads

The history and work of the Tölzer Knabenchor (Tölz Boys' Choir) are based on the pleasure of singing in a group. Originally founded in the Bavarian town of Bad Tölz, the choir is now based in Munich and enjoys an international reputation. Their concert at the Elbphilharmonie features motets by Johann Sebastian Bach, which are some of the most demanding works in the choral repertoire. The versions performed by the Tölzer Knabenchor are based on the latest scholarly findings from the autograph manuscripts and original copies.

Please note: This event replaces the cancelled concert from 22 March 2020. Tickets purchased for the postponed concert are valid for this event.

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«.
