Anyone planning to attend the Mahler Festival in Leipzig in May 2011? I would be interested in swapping opinions during and after the concerts with someone. This plan is tentative as I don't know if I will be able to secure tickets yet. Please let me know.

Hi parisboy42, I will be in attendance, I just received my tickets for 7 of the shows (symphonies 2,3,4,6,7,8,10) the 5th and 9th were sold out. I have seen the 1st and das lied before, as well as the kindertotenlieder . I haven't made hotel plans yet but the Radisson Blu is right across the street and very affordable this far in advance.

Hi,

 

I'm getting cold feet about the entire idea. I might decide at the last minute which would mean standing room only for me. Do you know if German symphonies sell steh platz like in Austria?
