Programme
Overview

"It seemed to me that there was nothing more beautiful in the world than being able to write a work for the theater. Enchant the audience. Move. “To make people cheer,” said Giacomo Puccini, overwhelmed by Verdi’s “Aida,” for which he made a special pilgrimage on foot to Pisa, twenty kilometers away, in 1876 because he could not hear modern operas in his birthplace of Lucca. This fascinatingly complex man, who loved hunting and cars, was different from his contemporaries. Also dramaturgical. He said goodbye to the classic heroic material of previous opera works. His protagonists were people from next door, “the great pain in little souls” (Puccini).

Star tenor Jonas Kaufmann succeeds like no other in bringing these moving feelings of ordinary people to the world's stages and, in the spirit of Puccini, rousing opera audiences and music critics to storms of enthusiasm. 2024 marks the 100th anniversary of Puccini's death. With his program “Viva Puccini! " Jonas Kaufmann dedicates himself to the work of this extraordinary composer. A very personal homage with the most beautiful arias and scenes from his world-famous operas such as “La Bohème”, “Tosca” and “Madama Butterfly” – interpreted by the German State Philharmonic under the direction of Jochen Rieder, soprano Valeria Sepe and “the greatest tenor of these days” (The Daily Telegraph).

Venue Info

KKL Luzern - Lucerne
Location   Europaplatz 1

KKL Luzern’s spectacular architecture designed by Pritzker Prize winner Jean Nouvel and the quality of its facilities set this venue apart from more traditional culture and convention centres. Its trade-mark is the common theme of culture, conferences and culinary choices – the complete experience orchestrated under the famous roof. The building is situated in the heart of Switzerland, only one hour by train from Zurich Airport, within walking distance of Lucerne’s finest hotels and a few sheltered steps from the international railway station. It is the perfect venue for your next premium event, such as product launches, anniversary celebrations and award ceremonies, high-profile meetings, receptions and banquets.

Concert Hall
The showpiece of the KKL Luzern is its renowned Concert Hall with 1,898 seats and acoustics that provide incredible sound and inspire the world’s leading conductors, orchestras and soloists to perform at their best.

Conventions
The outstanding Concert Hall with its multifunctional usage, is also an exciting possibility for conventions. A wide screen is hidden above the stage and may be lowered for awards, product presentations and other events. Interpreting booths and excellent infrastructure are at hand for a most memorable convention or meeting or live television broadcast.

Two water canals frame the Lucerne Hall, a venue that is also unique in its adaptability and convertible for 200 up to 1,800 guests. It can be used for a variety of settings including product presentations, congresses, concerts and banquets. With its appropriate audiovisual facilities, variable height staging and mobile rostrum, all combined with the deliberately simple design of the hall, the organizer will find creative freedom to style the event.

The Auditorium for up to 271 listeners, too, is equipped with state-of-the-art congress installations and, like the Lucerne Hall, provides an attractive setting for conferences. Event organizers are also increasingly discovering the Crystal Lounge, the attractive meeting point in the KKL Luzern. It boasts an oval-shaped bar that can be moved around the space, allowing for maximum flexibility and turning the lounge into a premier events venue.

Culinary experiences
The cuisine facilities of the KKL Luzern offer organizers and guests all kinds of catering options and total culinary experiences. Packages and offers – such as refreshing time-outs, cocktail receptions for networking, stand-up lunches, seated dinners or exclusive lounge experiences – can be tailored to the organizer’s specific needs.
