Saarländisches Staatsorchester Musicians

The Saarländisches Staatsorchester (Saarland State Orchestra) has been an active member of Orchester des Wandels since 2020. For the past two years, we have been particularly committed to promoting environmentally friendly transportation. This area seems especially promising to us in terms of CO₂ savings and the individual opportunities for each person to positively influence a better climate.

For example, at the 2025 season opening festival, we motivated 150 visitors to arrive by bicycle, and at our last bicycle concert, we attracted 60 cyclists to the Velsen Adventure Mine with lively music and delicious waffles.

In 2025, a workplace mobility management program was implemented at the Saarland State Theatre. We are currently working towards certification as a "Bicycle-Friendly Company" by the General German Bicycle Club (ADFC) Saarland, and a public survey on mobility is also planned as the next step.

With 37% of employees using bicycles (Germany average 11%, Saarland 3%) as their mode of transport, the Saarland State Theatre already occupies a special position in Saarland: In an area without a significant cycling tradition, we want to inspire people with the practical and environmentally friendly advantages of cycling through inspiring concerts.
