Karg-Elert Days

From October 16 to 18, 2026, we cordially invite you to the Karg-Elert Days in Hamburg. The work of composer Sigfrid Karg-Elert (1877–1933) lies at the intersection of rich, sonorous Impressionism, the late Romantic tradition, and the musical upheavals of the early 20th century. Our three-day program combines scholarly exploration with a diverse range of concerts. We are very much looking forward to inspiring encounters, moving music, and professional exchanges with you in Hamburg, the city of the organ!

This opening event will focus on Sigfrid Karg-Elert’s three major “Impressions” cycles (Op. 72, 108, and 142), complemented by delicate organ improvisations. The concert will fully showcase the tonal spectrum of the newly restored and impressively expanded organ (Peter
1966 / Klais 2023).

Eintritt: 12,00 EUR
Ermäßigt: 6,00 EUR

In cooperation with Karg-Elert-Gesellschaft e.V. and Orgelstadt Hamburg
