Experience culture. Poetry Slam in Hamburg

Isemarkt

With a length of almost one kilometer, the Isemarkt is a particularly large weekly market. Around 200 exhibitors sell their goods here twice a week in picturesque surroundings and a nice atmosphere. The Isemarkt between the underground stations Hoheluftbrücke and Eppendorfer Baum is now a part of Hamburg that is hard to imagine without.

Junge Symphoniker Hamburg

Go big or go home: in their winter concert, the Junge Symphoniker Hamburg, conducted by Daniel Kirchmann, will devote themselves for the first time to a single, full-length work – but what a work it is! It is »the creation of a giant«, said Hugo Wolf, a reviewer who was not exactly known for his restraint, after the highly successful premiere of Anton Bruckner’s longest and most powerful symphony in Vienna in 1892.

The Eighth surpasses »all of the master’s other symphonies in terms of intellectual dimension, fertility and grandeur«, Wolf continues. The many scruples and revisions in the work’s creative process had therefore been worthwhile: in fact, the premiere of the Eighth was not only the greatest success of Bruckner’s life. It was also a veritable »victory« over his otherwise stubborn opponents in Vienna. Even his arch-enemy Johannes Brahms is said to have reluctantly admitted: »Bruckner is a great genius after all.«

The symphony offers not only friends of pictorially poetic, overwhelming, emotionally intense soundscapes enough material to rave about (especially in the Adagio!). Lovers of compositional artistry will also get their money’s worth. The motif that rises by a semitone at the beginning of the first movement can be understood as the starting point for all the themes in the work – which are simultaneously layered on top of each other in the powerful final bars of the finale. A feast for all fans of symphonic summit ascents!

Junges Orchester Hamburg Winter Concert

On February 7 and 8, 2026, we will perform our winter concerts.

This time, the concerts are designed as family concerts, and children are expressly welcome! The program is also family-friendly: in the first half, the well-known and catchy Nutcracker Suite by Pyotr Tchaikovsky will be performed, along with excerpts from Engelbert Humperdinck’s Hansel and Gretel (including the famous Evening Prayer).

In the second half, Sergei Prokofiev’s Peter and the Wolf will be presented as a live musical story. The orchestral music accompanies the simultaneously narrated story of Peter, the dangerous wolf, and numerous other animals that Peter tries to save from the wolf.

Of course, you are also very welcome to enjoy the familiar and memorable melodies even without (bringing) children!
