A very special concert series awaits visitors to the Arithmeum at regular intervals, every Monday. Since its opening, the Arithmeum has regularly hosted concerts, which are broadcast as recordings or live on the radio. This highly successful concert series, “concerto discreto,” was launched in 1999 by Deutschlandfunk in collaboration with the Arithmeum; it was then taken over for a short time by Deutsche Welle and subsequently managed by WDR3.

The unusual atmosphere of the venue is always reflected in the concert experience. The boundary between stage and audience becomes permeable, and the space often becomes a resonant chamber explored by the artists in all its facets. Thanks to the intimacy of the venue, the audience gets to know the artists from a completely different perspective. The shared musical experience takes center stage, and the spark jumps directly to the audience. For radio listeners, this concert experience is always captured in such a way that they can directly hear the artist’s interpretation, inspired by both the audience and the space.Anyone who has ever experienced a “concerto discreto” live at the Arithmeum knows what makes the musical experience at this unique venue so special—and also that ancient, classical, and even contemporary music can all be presented here in the building’s glass foyer in the most beautiful way. This is also reflected in the concert audience, which consists not only of classical music lovers but also of numerous students and up-and-coming musicians who can always satisfy their curiosity and experience their love of music up close here.
