The Sinfonieorchester Basel invites to the annual Advent concert in aid of 'BaZ hilft'. Since 1977, the foundation has been supporting people in need in northwestern Switzerland with benefit events and donations. The foundation receives its funds from donations by readers and from the proceeds of the Advent concert. Members of the OperAvenir opera studio and the Girls' Choir Basel will perform a colourful mix of Christmas and festive music classics. Heavenly sounds and the traditional decorations in the Stadtcasino Basel ensure a magical Christmas atmosphere!
