Mindful experience of music
We would like to invite you to dive into inner worlds for a few minutes right before the concert begins. Appropriate mindfulness exercises help relax the mind and body, sharpen the senses, and feel boundlessness.
Concert tickets for € 20 are normally available in the RSB visitor service; the mindfulness exercise is included in the price.
Here you will find information: Mindfulness exercises before chamber concerts
