Ludus Ensemble

Concert

May 10, 2025 / 19:30

Pera Classics welcomes Ludus Ensemble for its May concert. Founded in 2013 and named after the Latin word "ludus," meaning "play," the ensemble creates a dynamic sense of play by interpreting works by composers from diverse geographies and eras. For the concert at Pera Museum, the program will exclusively feature Schubert's works.

The concert will take place on the same floor where the Orientalist Painting Collection Intersecting Worlds: Ambassadors and Painters is exhibited, offering listeners a spellbinding musical journey into history. 

Priced at 450 TL, the tickets are available at Biletix.com or can be purchased from the reception desk of the Pera Museum on the day of the event. Pera Museum Friendship Program members may enjoy a 20% discount. Seats are limited and unnumbered. The concert is without intermission and lasts approximately 1 hour.

The event is suitable for ages 7 and above. Children aged 7 to 12 are welcome to attend the concert when accompanied by an adult.

From two portraits of children…

The Suna and İnan Kıraç Foundation’s Orientalist Painting Collection includes two children’s portraits that are often featured in exhibitions on the second floor of the Pera Museum. These portraits both date back to the early 20th century, and were made four years apart. One depicts Prince Abdürrahim Efendi, son of Sultan Abdulhamid II, while the figure portrayed on the other is Nazlı, the daughter of Osman Hamdi Bey.
