What is a walking concert ("Wandelkonzert")?
If the musician can't come to the audience, the audience goes to the musician - or their instrument. The immobility of organs almost prescribes the form of the concert in which the audience moves between the individual venues. It is the only opportunity to hear the entire spectrum of church music on the important organs of all Lübeck city centre churches and to listen to various ensembles in just one day. And it is a rare opportunity to be part of something special.
A different organ, a different organist, a different ensemble, a new piece. The atmosphere of the Lübeck Walking Concerts oscillates between the poles of cheerfulness and concentration, between the robust physicality of walking and the enraptured spirituality of the musical experiences.
