The introduction takes place in the Souterrain (formerly Odeonzaal, entrance on the ground floor) and is free for the audience. The speaker will be using sound amplification. A few days before the première, the introduction is also available as a podcast. On the program page of the concerning performance, you can see whether the podcast is already available.
