An extraordinary concert at the Cologne Philharmonie
On November 15, 2026, the Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra will perform at the Cologne Philharmonie. Conducted by Klaus Mäkelä, the concert combines two significant works of music history: Antonín Dvořák's 7th Symphony and Béla Bartók's operatic work Bluebeard's Castle.
Also featured are the two artists mentioned in the event title, Jennifer Johnston and Gerald Finley. Together with the renowned Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra and conductor Klaus Mäkelä, a concert evening emerges that brings together symphonic richness and dramatic operatic music.
Dvořák's 7th Symphony
Dvořák's 7th Symphony forms the symphonic part of the evening. The work represents great orchestral sound effects and a demanding musical design. At the Cologne Philharmonie, Dvořák's symphonic style meets the unique sound culture of the Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra.
Bartók's Bluebeard's Castle
In the second part of the program, Béla Bartók's operatic work Bluebeard's Castle will be performed. The presentation adds a dramatic and vocal dimension to the concert evening. The combination with Dvořák's 7th Symphony makes the program a versatile encounter between symphony and music theater.
The concert takes place at the Cologne Philharmonie and is aimed at everyone who wants to experience large orchestral compositions, demanding classical music, and Bartók's operatic work live.
