I had seen the event advertised and I thought that I had always wanted to watch a classical concert. Set in the lovely basilica, it seemed like an ideal chance. The seats were in 3 categories, but as it was a musical concert, unless you want to get close and personal with the performers, category C is fine. However it is church pews/chairs so sitting for over an hour can be tough on the bum (I am not a church goer so no idea if it is normal to sit for that long!) The event started just after 8 and there were a number of performers. As I had booked online, there was no opportunity for me to receive a programme, and except the four numbers I knew, I had no idea what was being performed. I think if you bought at the venue you got a programme. Lots of lovely music and singing, and the acoustics make it worthwhile. Please don't be someone who has to record everything on your phone - where I was sat, it meant I watched the event through 5 phones. It was a lovely way to spend my birthday.

The concert ticket was purchased online. The cost, I think, is overpriced (the cheapest will cost 34 euros). It is better to come in advance, and to admire the interior, and to take a seat in your sector closer. The acoustics are designed for the sound of the organ, you can hear it well everywhere, but the rest of the instruments or the voice sound a little strange, as for my taste. As if from afar, although this is so, when you sit quite far from the performers, and the sound, as it were, dissipates, ceases to be directed, as is usually the case in a concert or opera hall. But in general, I was satisfied with both the place and the performers. After the concert, which lasts a little over an hour, there is time to walk around the night Pest.

This was marvellous However, I didn’t actually attend the one I bought as that had organ music. I thought I had been very careful NOT to select an organ music concert. The lady on the door allowed me to use my ticket to see a concert at St Anne’s church instead on the Friday night, which was shorter and I believe slightly cheaper - but it was Marvellous!
