The »String Instruments« workshop is an opportunity to look over the shoulder of a violin-maker and have a go at playing a violin or even a double bass yourself. During the visit to a Hamburg violin-maker’s workshop, participants discover first-hand how much craftsmanship goes into creating such an instrument. And to close, the Javus Quartett demonstrates what’s possible with string instruments.
The workshop is connected to the Javus Quartet concert on 20 January 2027.
The Elbphilharmonie’s »Insight« events give people deeper insights into musical phenomena. Experts in different fields explain aspects from their day-to-day work clearly and entertainingly and are happy to answer the public’s questions.
