A Classic Afternoon with Summer Feeling
The Heinrich-Schnitzler-Orchester looks back on a long Bochum tradition: Founded in 1974, the ensemble has established itself as an amateur string orchestra with a repertoire ranging from Baroque to modern, shaping the cultural life of the city for decades. At the picnic concert conducted by Dirk Weber, classical works as well as pieces from film and musical will be heard, unamplified and right in the green.

Wiesental as a Stage for Atmosphere and Time Out
The Wiesental in Bochum-Weitmar is a developed green corridor in the Marbach Valley with a pond, playground, outdoor fitness facilities, and gastronomic offerings in the vicinity. This mix of park landscape and urban proximity makes the place ideal for a summer open-air experience. Those who want to experience the music should bring their own blanket or folding chair and make themselves comfortable on the lawn.

What Visitors Can Expect
The concert is intentionally kept uncomplicated: open air, family-friendly, stroller accessible, and suitable for all age groups. In case of bad weather, the event will be canceled. This creates a light, immediate cultural format that puts proximity, audience atmosphere, and musical quality in the center.
