A piece of music is worth a thousand words. True as the saying is, the more you know, the better and more deeply you listen. And so Lucerne Festival offers presentations and introductions to its concerts to enhance your musical experience. Our dramaturgs give introductory talks (in German) to a selection of our concerts. These generally take place in the KKL Auditorium one hour before the concert begins. Admission is free to members of the University for Seniors. Please sow your membership ID at the entrance.
