Sir John Eliot Gardiner
“It is naturally profoundly disappointing that this opportunity to experience Beethoven’s Missa Solemnis together has fallen victim to the Coronavirus pandemic. It was to have been a double Denkmal – for Mariss Jansons and, of course, for Beethoven 250 years after he was born.” Sir John Eliot Gardiner sent us this video message, in which he very much regrets the cancellation of the upcoming concerts on April 2 & 3, but the conductor also sends a personal message to all of us!

Almost everyone in Germany knows “Pumuckl”, the goblin with the red hair – and the musical intro of the series! The five musicians of the brass ensemble NoPhilBrass and the drummer Christian Pilz met at the original location of a Pumuckl episode, a carpenter’s workshop, to record the music there.

In recent months, we have often been asked when and how the decision for a new chief conductor of the BRSO is made. In the form of a Q&A, we tried to answer the most important questions.
