There are only a few days left before DR starts selling tickets for the dress rehearsals. From Monday at 11.00 am, it will again be possible to buy tickets for DR Kor & Orkestres open dress rehearsals and working rehearsals.
But REMEMBER that you need to be a member of the Friends to enjoy the musical experiences. Many have faithfully re-paid their membership fee, even though we have been without the opportunity to attend rehearsals for some time, to the extent that they have taken place at all. There is still time to re-subscribe.
On our website you can find the autumn programme, renew your membership and find out how to buy tickets, all in the article below.
Have a great time!
It is with great pleasure that we can now present you with the coming season's autumn programme, which we think has hit the top of what DR can offer in the halls of the Concert Hall. And it is with even greater joy that we can now allow ourselves to believe that the programme can be completed as planned after just over a year where the Corona has ruined a lot for all of us, including the joy of being present at the rehearsals in DR-Byen.
The organisation has been running on empty. We have not been able to organise events, hold general meetings or distribute scholarships, which is one of the main purposes of the Friends' Association. Now we are looking forward to normality. And already this Sunday, we can offer the opportunity to come to the Sunday Salon in DR-Byen at a favourable price. Read more about it here. Buy tickets here.
We have also set aside money for the ”missing scholarships” this autumn so we can hand them out when we are allowed to gather again. So we are aiming for a musical general meeting out of the ordinary this autumn.
Supporting DR's choirs and orchestras requires that our loyal members continue to support the organisation by renewing their membership card.
Renew your membership here.
You will need a valid membership card when purchasing tickets for next season's rehearsals. Therefore, we will close the re-subscription on 19 August, but from Monday 23 August at 11:00 am it will be possible to order tickets for this autumn's open dress rehearsals and working rehearsals. This can be done via a closed link that members have access to at drvenneforeningen.dk, by calling Koncerthuset's Customer Centre or by visiting Koncerthuset's Customer Centre in person.
Tickets for open dress rehearsals and working rehearsals cost 95,- incl. fee.
HYou must also show your membership card together with the numbered tickets at the rehearsals.
NOTE: Dress rehearsals can consist of both rehearsals and rehearsal work. Changes may occur.
