360° № 1

In the organizer's words:

360° is the one-hour, moderated after-work concert series of the Jena Philharmonic Orchestra, in which the orchestra can be experienced up close and from an unusual perspective. The musicians sit where the audience usually sits - in a circle, with the conductor in the center - and right in the middle: you. Whether right next to the harp, percussion or between the strings - the interplay, tonal subtleties of individual instrument groups and solo passages can hardly be perceived with such intensity otherwise, nor can the physical presence of the musical work. A format that enables extraordinary listening experiences, playfully overcomes barriers and creates closeness - between orchestra and audience as well as to the music itself. The strong demand in recent seasons speaks for itself. Try it out and immerse yourself in the sound!
