The Südwestdeutsche Philharmonie Konstanz has been included in a list of six national orchestras that will receive 4.5 million Euros in federal funding over five years to boost players’ salaries and maintain high standards.

The other orchs in the booster basket are in Bochum, Hamburg, Jena, Munich and Stuttgarter.

Konstanz is in an area of natural beauty and widespread poverty.
