Your perfect concert visit.<br />
What am I gonna wear?<br />
Generally: You can wear whatever you want. However, sweatpants do<br />
tend to attract more attention than a blazer.<br />
Oh, no! I’m late! What now?<br />
Un<strong>for</strong>tunately, you’re gonna have to wait. After the concert begins, you<br />
may not enter until the next musical intermission.<br />
Passing notes? Or may I speak?<br />
In the case of acute speech necessity, it is advised you best wait until<br />
the break. There are more than enough chances to talk be<strong>for</strong>e and<br />
after the concert!<br />
When do I clap?<br />
He who carries the concert program (or this pamphlet!) has a clear<br />
advantage. Therein is written, how many movements a piece has.<br />
Vaughan William’s Concerto has 3 movements, <strong>for</strong> example, but you<br />
only clap after all three have been played!<br />
Typically, you also applaud the conductor, as soon as he enters<br />
the stage <strong>for</strong> the first time, and you applaud the soloist after his<br />
per<strong>for</strong>mance!<br />
… What about my phone, though?<br />
It’s best to keep it off. A ringtone during the per<strong>for</strong>mance doesn’t just<br />
disturb you, but everyone around you and the concert!<br />
Did someone <strong>for</strong>get his violin case?<br />
If you see a violin case or something similar at the exit, then that’s the<br />
promoter’s plea <strong>for</strong> financial support. The concert carries no admission<br />
charge, but the orchestra would be very pleased with a small donation!
