We are pleased to announce that our chamber music concerts will resume in the Humboldt Hall following the summer break. Following captivating concerts featuring the Morgenstern Trio in February and the Kravets-Kassung Duo in March, we look forward to three more concerts starting in October. The Arundos Wind Quintet, the Arisva String Quartet, and the Kassung & Marziali Guitar Duo will perform in the Humboldt Hall.

We are very grateful for the renewed funding commitments from the City of Cologne’s Cultural Affairs Office and the Kunststiftung NRW. Given the current financial situation, this is by no means a given and sends a strong and important signal in support of the arts and music in Cologne. It is only thanks to this support—and to the generous commitment of our friends and patrons—that we are able to present these five outstanding concerts this year. Unfortunately, the scheduling and use of the Humboldt Hall for our association is still being coordinated with the relevant city departments. We hope that this will finally be resolved in the course of May and that we will then be able to announce the exact dates for the three fall concerts before the summer break. We will keep you updated here on the website. You are also welcome to sign up for our newsletter. There, we send out updates every two months on upcoming concerts at the Humboldtsaal as well as the schedule for the entire Cologne Classical Ensemble collective.
