Musis Sacrum / Schouwburg Arnhem Review

What a lovely afternoon it was. #Arnhem. Our press card allowed us to take these beautiful photographs of Queen Maxima who officially opened the Musis Arnhem with a gong (see photo).
Het Gelders Orkest performed with kids from 3 local schools and it was an amazing sight. The new Musis concert hall 'Parkzaal' is a great contribution to Arnhem! Please make sure you visit it soon.

The new concert hall of Musis (Parkzaal) is great. Good acoustics and plenty of seating. Helpful staff.

Beautiful room, beautiful acoustics, pleasant service by the staff

Beautiful location, beautiful classical music series. Acoustics in the old Nieuwuzenzaal hall still somewhat hollow.

Beautiful rooms! And good location. Crazy that the name of the Musis is not on the outside, but a bit of searching for the entrance? Furthermore, super service, thanks!

After the bold renovation, it has become a beautiful room

Beautiful new Park Hall! Concert vd Golden Earring excellent care, acoustics fine!

It was nice there only there were very boring songs and there should be more carnival songs instead of K3, Frozen or Kabouter Plop music

In the old room went to Jools Holland.
Bad sound, sounded like in an industrial hall.
Setback, especially for that money.
Entrance and foyer unclear routing.
Entrance with "hangar doors" very large.
Do not anticipate calamities, so if those doors falter, you also have a BIG problem, as turned out yesterday. In the Foyer you blew away, outside through the emergency door!

Very nice room, great acoustics and top speaker system.

Pay attention! At Musis, an online ticket including free consumption means that you can still pay for your drink.

Nice terrace .... right in the center of Arnhem. Friendly, smooth service. The disadvantage is the chairs outside the terrace. 30 minutes Max, then wooden butt. Back everything hurts too. Uncomfortable ....... a shame ... has not been thought about.

Beautiful concert hall and very accessible for disabled people. Prima wheelchair places where wheelchair and attendant / partner can sit comfortably next to each other. Parking garage opposite the theater and also this is wheelchair friendly.

Fast service, even during the break. And of course a very beautiful location and super concert hall.

My wonderful city that I love I recommend everyone come and visit it is definitely worth it.
Welcome to my beautiful city

Terribly cold air-wind in my neck. I had problems with it for days, and I was not the only one, during the break visitors took their shawl or jacket out of the wardrobe again. I had reserved seats in the first row, but upon arrival it was told that the seat choice was free. If I had known that I would have come earlier.

Beautiful hall with great acoustic, so you can enjoy a performance there even more

Nice atmosphere! Both for formal and informal events

Atmospheric hall. In the old normally lovely chairs .. Excellent acoustics

Nice room. Big downside is that you are not assigned a seat so you have to stand in line an hour beforehand for a good spot and that even that does not help because they first let us all in, but the hall doors were not open yet we were all waiting fifteen minutes before the doors and when they opened everyone started to run and push to get a nice spot. There were families with children who could not even sit together ... At a theater performance!

Nice, but the hall is disappointing for a concert. There are better rooms

I will also do this with my old fiat panda ...
electric vehicle .... old cars in the current and future street scene with the technology of the future under the hood. That has been a dream of mine for years. This man is already doing it.

Nice performance by Frank Boeijen in the Parkzaal.

Great meal at Jans, after that arrangement with coffee and a drink during the break and a fantastic concert of the Pink Project.

The Park Room is beautiful and has a nice warm sound through the many woods. Gives a nice layer of orchestras playing here.

Beautiful large room (photo is not the biggest). Great facilities, great coffee and within walking distance of the station (12 min).

Because of the covid 19 but with 30 people to the concert. The staff did their utmost to ensure that everything ran smoothly. Compliments. Wonderful concert

Beautiful concert of the Gelderland orchestra attended.

Beautiful room with beautiful sound. Really an asset for Arnhem

Beautiful room. A magnificent concert by the RFGGJ.

Beautiful concert hall with good acoustics.
Too few (but 1) bar open during the break. The room was sold out and there were 2 uninhabited bars. That's too bad.

Cozy staff during the carnival. Security was very strict but well organized. Overall a good team and little to criticize

Parkzaal last Saturday, a great performance by Frank Boeijen attended ... what an artist..what a "storyteller" ... in one word SUPER.

Great for a quick tasty meal .. be surprised by the changing mahler menu

Nice location, friendly staff and easily accessible.

Nice building, just a little too sleek and modern on the inside but that is personal taste. Good acoustics. Light show may be a little less, we were all too often blinded by the white light that shone right in your face at a very fast pace. But maybe that was part of the band

Concert of Zlatoust, a Russian choir, attended. They had come especially to the Netherlands for this Peace Concert, which was also played by Martin Oei, virtuoso pianist.
We unfortunately found the acoustics to be less good than we had experienced during a concert by Zlatoust in Moscow. The singers also noticed this and had to make more effort.

Beautiful rooms with good sound. Parkzaal has a magnificent view of the park behind the stage. Tip: you can also sit on the balcony next to the orchestra. Nice to see the interaction between the musicians!

Had a tour. Is definitely recommended! Beautiful building, good facilities. Good acoustics. Daylight in many rooms. Indoor and outdoor space form a whole. Beautiful view of the park from the foyer and large hall.

Home of the renowned 125 year old Gelders Orkest, which I recently heard being described by a US American composer as one of the best orchestra's in the world. And rightfully so. They are amazing, and despite some harming cuts in funding, they're always spot-on musically and the talented players are clearly passionate about their job. Go see (and hear) them, at Musis or in Nijmegen. They are especially great at Mahler and Bruckner.

Musis features a brand new large concert hall, about which some are very enthusiastic, but I'm not sure if I concur acoustically. The hall is architectually brilliant though, with a glass wall behind the orchestra opening the view to the park next to the hall.

Good sound. On the balcony the people were clearly visible on the stage. It seemed as if the room itself was not ascending or descending, so you probably had less good visibility there.

Beautiful acoustics, friendly staff and very clean toilets.

Nice theater, attended Graduation fashion shows Artez

Had a great performance by a Bee Gees cover band, great in this great new venue that also cost me a lot of tax money! But for a fun night out you are at the right place or just have a beer !!

I was there with my mother who had won a prize with a 65+ travel match.
We were 15 minutes late because the region taxi with that bad snow also had delay. The staff of Musis tried to get us anyway with explanation of the reason that we were late due to helplessness.
The person who was traveling 65+ refused to leave us cold in the hall.
The staff member of Musis offered us tea and a place where we could wait for the Regiotaxi back home because it would not be until 3 quarters of an hour later.
All thanks to the friendly staff of Musis.

Great experience. Everything top for each other and pleasant people in service.

very nice complex with new-build concert hall and renovated existing concert hall. Excellent restaurant facilities. Very good acoustics in the concert halls and comfortable seats.

Had not been there for more than 30 years, the recent refurbishment has been extremely successful.

Excellent place for a classical concert. An expensive restoration was added.

Last night, despite strict corona rules, I heard really beautiful music from the Symfionetta from Amsterdam !!!

Music is unsuitable for a park hall that is sold out. Far too massive and busy.

Beautiful rooms, centrally located, good neighborhood

Spacious and beautiful. Friendly help in finding the places. Wardrobe and facilities fine. Quality of the music hall excellent!

Nice theater easy and inexpensive parking and you want to go downtown for a nice meal.

The music was too loud in my opinion, so the sound did not sound nice.
