Peter Schickele’s Concert Appearances
Here is a list of concert halls and
performing groups who have graciously invited Peter Schickele or Prof.
Schickele to present concerts in the near future, along with dates and times
and helpful or informative links. Peter Schickele’s usual touring season runs
from January through May, with a few scattered concerts showing up at other
times of the year. The new season schedule is usually posted on this page
by September
each year, with additional concert dates added as we find
out about them.
 |
Note: It is always wise to check things
out before arriving at the concert hall five minutes before curtain time;
concerts sometimes materialize, or evaporate out of, or into, respectively, thin
air. To find out about the latest materializations and evaporations, when
and if they happen, sign up for our mailing list.

Note: For each location we have tried to
find the most useful link that is available. In the best cases, this will
point to the venue’s official site where you can order tickets on-line. In
some cases, on-line ordering isn’t available, or the specific concert hasn’t yet
been listed on that site, or we somehow completely overlooked a much better link
than the one provided. If you happen to know of a better link that we
could list, please e-mail us.

Many symphony orchestras and
performing arts venues around the country have already bravely
scheduled visits by Prof. Schickele for the upcoming 2009/2010
concert season, but others are still cautiously working out their
plans to venture into the unchartered territory of P.D.Q. Bach
music. Once the final details are sewn up and nailed down, all
the ducks are in a row and the chickens have come home to roost, the
details of the full concert season will be posted right here.
Expect this information to appear here near late August, or be
amongst the first to know by signing up for the
mailing list. |
