Any classical music on Holland America Rotterdam?

[Patters]

Yes, we had classical music on the April 13th transatlantic crossing a couple of times.

I am happy to hear that Classical music has returned to HAL. Does anybody know if Koningsdam has it? Thanks in advance if you can report on that.

I never knew it left....we've enjoyed classical music onboard forever, it seems.

HAL discontinued its partnership with Lincoln Center Stage some time ago.  The classical music they replaced it with has been hit or miss.  We have had a couple of cruises lately where there was no classical music at all.

Sorry to hear that.....

 

We've been on 5 HAL cruises (Japan, Alaska, South America, TA, Mediterranean) over the past two years and we've enjoyed the classical music each time.....whether it is branded Lincoln Center or whatever, we do not know/care....but it was good and it was classical.
