Klassikphilharmonie Hamburg

• Classical Music

The KlassikPhilharmonie Hamburg (previously Hamburger Mozart-Orchester) was founded in 1978 by conductor Robert Stehli. The orchestra’s repertoire ranges from the Baroque to the Modern period. In addition to concerts at the Schleswig-Holstein Musik Festival and the Mozartfest Würzburg as well as international tours, the KlassikPhilharmonie is a regular and welcome guest in Hamburg’s Laeiszhalle. The »Hamburg Proms« are something of an institution in Hamburg’s music scene: just like at the famous London model, the »Last Night of the Proms«, at the »Hamburg Proms« the audience breaks with strict concert traditions and shows its full enthusiasm by clapping, singing and tapping along with the music.
