Dear friends of Ruhr Piano Festival,
from today’s perspective, the development of the current pandemic and the accompanying legal regulations unfortunately mean that, in all likelihood, we will not be able to begin the Ruhr Piano Festival 2021 at the end of May – as announced just a few weeks ago. Therefore, we are once again reorganising our 2021 programme and moving more concerts originally planned for early summer to autumn. But we are not giving up and hope that the situation will relax in June so that we will at least have the chance to make our concerts live for you again in July.
As soon as the pandemic situation allows, we will publish our concert calendar with the planned concerts here.
You will surely believe me: My staff and I, we all deeply long to be able to play for you and be there for our artists again as soon as possible! Please keep your fingers crossed for us and stay healthy!
Yours
Franz Xaver Ohnesorg
Director of the Ruhr Piano Festival
