Soon PERSEPHONE revisit Vienna to play once more
in an extraordinary location. We hope to see you there.
After the concert PERSEPHONE played at Wernigerode
there are some impressions added to the gallery.
The preparations
for the concert at Schloss Wernigerode are heading towards
its peak now. PERSEPHONE are looking forward to perform
some songs together with singer Rig of JANUS such as
"Coming Home". Being one of the founder of PERSEPHONE
he was acting both as a producer and songwriter for
the debut album "Home". Back in 2002 there already have
been some duet-performances between Rig and Sonja which
now are going to be revived exclusively in the impressing
ambience of the castle's chapel. By the way: The chapel
will be heated but most probably will not be too warm
so if you come and visit the concert make sure you're
dressed warm enough.
As we were told the presale for this concert is running
pretty well and most of the tickets have been sold so
if you do not own a ticket yet but want to visit the
concert you should get them in advance. Contact 0049
(0) 3943 - 62 54 93 or info@ticketcenter-wernigerode.de
to order you ticket.

Guest »
Once more PERSEPHONE
will play at Schloss
Wernigerode this year. On 19th November at 19:00
h the chapel will be put into gentle movement again.
Because Schloss Wernigerode means a special location
for the band it deserves a special treatment - so PERSEPHONE
invited a special guest: Dirk "Rig" Riegert, singer
of the band JANUS will join Sonja and her companions
to perform several songs with them. In fact, this events
must mean a warm up to him as the "Winterreise"-Tour
of JANUS starts short time later. For further information

begun. They can be ordered by phone: 03943
