Gärtnerplatz-Open-Air 2012

Even before our opening premiere, we would like to warmly invite you to celebrate a musical party with us in Gärtnerplatz! Following the tradition of the three previous open-air concerts, our soloists and our orchestra under the baton of our new Chief Conductor Marco Comin will be presenting an entertaining summer concert programme as part of the festival celebrating "200 Years of Isarvorstadt".

You'll be able to enjoy a musical journey through Europe in what we hope will be magnificent summer weather, with popular classics from Offenbach through Elgar to Rossini and Strauss – and one or two previews of the new season, of course!
