A quick note to those of you who enjoy sunbathing on the roof – The GA Sommergarten season is now underway again on the roof of the Bundeskunsthalle in Bonn. Three concerts are due still this Summer from the General Anzeiger’s concert calender and all are worth a visit.

21 July – Soulcake: The name will give you an idea of the music but there will also be Rock and Pop classics to hear. I’m looking forward to the music, and also to seeing eleven people fit onto the GA Summer stage. Should be interesting!

11 August – The R&B Express: Again, the name gives away the style, but you will probably know the band anyway centered around vocalist Linda Meissner and sax player Kiki Schumacher. As with Soulcake though, there are sure to be some musical surprises in the set list.

18 August – Friend n Fellow: I remember seeing this duo at Bonn Harmonie some years ago and they were breathtaking. At the time a HiFi magazine was singing their praises, so expect an ear for musical perfection from vocalist Constanze Friend and Thomas Fellow. Definitely one for connosseurs of something a little different musically but top calibre.

All concerts 11.30 to 14.30 on the Bundeskunsthalle Roof. Free Entry.
