Festival

Rotterdam Philharmonic Gergiev Festival 2019

The 2019 Gergiev Festival, from 12 to 15 September 2019, is devoted entirely to Paris, the city of love, light and music. From the Baroque to Stravinsky, this edition of the festival features the rich musical history of France.

Programme
Hector Berlioz: La damnation de Faust
Overview

Is it an opera? Or a work for the concert hall? Hector Berlioz had no such restricting thoughts when he wrote his smouldering music drama La Damnation de Faust, and he made highly original choices of instrumentation as well. Along with a star-studded cast Gergiev shows what a revolutionary composer Berlioz was and how much influence his colourful instrumentation had on later French composers.

Venue Info

De Doelen - Rotterdam
Location   Schouwburgplein 50

De Doelen is a concert venue and convention centre in Rotterdam, Netherlands. It was originally built in 1934 but then destroyed in 1940 during the German bombardment of Rotterdam in May 1940 at the outset of World War II. It was rebuilt in 1966, originally with one hall to which two more were added in the 1990s.

It has a variety of facilities, including the Grote Zaal (Grand Hall), a 2,200-seat concert hall, two smaller halls which each seat about 700 people, and convention rooms. In 2015 it was classified as a Rijksmonument.

Although mainly known as a venue for classical music, de Doelen is also a stage for jazz, world music and as the Central Boxoffice for the International Film Festival Rotterdam. It is also the home of the Rotterdam Philharmonic Orchestra.
