A Maurice Ravel matinéeHe is perhaps the most popular French composers: Maurice Ravel. Who doesn't know his Bolero, which presents a huge upward curve based on a distinct drum rhythm? The music always stays in time, as precise as a clockwork, but with its constantly expanding instrumentation and growing dynamics, it can either put us in a trance or ecstasy. It was not only with this work that Ravel achieved a real stroke of genius. This composer also allows us to dream nostalgically of times gone by and the paradise of childhood. With him, we can also look to the future and into other genres, as Ravel was one of the first to make jazz acceptable in classical music. On his 150th birthday, which the music world will celebrate on 7 March 2025, we want to honour Maurice Ravel with a musical and literary matinee that will take you through his life and present some of his most original chamber music works.
For 25 years, curator and cellist Götz Teutsch has been bringing music and literature together in the Philharmonic Salon. A wide variety of cultural worlds have been experienced. The series has presented the Mendelssohn family and their guests, traced the travels of the legendary Casanova, and brought Gustav Mahler's Vienna to life. This anniversary concert, featuring actor Heikko Deutschmann and soprano Anna Prohaska with members of the Berliner Philharmoniker, is all about art and kitsch – two worlds that are particularly captivating when they overlap.
About 560 employees and innumerable guests behind and before the stage see to it that at the Deutsche Oper Berlin “the cloth is raised”, enabling the audience to leave the scene enriched by unforgettable impressions. We cannot introduce you to every personality at once in our OPERNWERKSTATT series. But if you regularly visit the OPERNWERKSTATT you will gradually get to know them: the clever brains behind the Opera as work of Art, and the dreams, thoughts, emotions and ambitions associated with her. OPERNWERKSTATT brings you together with directors, conductors, singers, study directors, dramaturges, theatre creators. Each event starts with a visit to a scenic or musical rehearsal. After a glimpse into the workshop we shall introduce you to the emerging project and answer your questions. So that you can see what moves us.
A welcome matineeEvery orchestra is a living organism and is constantly changing: With the Berliner Philharmoniker, too, familiar faces leave and retire year after year. New musicians come in their place - and many of them quickly become audience favourites. We would like to use the summer matinee to introduce you to some of these newcomers. Among them is first principal viola Diyang Mei, who has already made history by being the first Chinese to join the orchestra. He has lived in Germany since 2014, where he won the prestigious ARD Music Competition in 2018. You can also look forward to the new principal timpanist, the young Austrian Vincent Vogel, who inherited his teacher Rainer Seegers in this position in 2022: almost a Philharmoniker dynasty. A total of four new members will be available to answer questions at this welcome matinee. And, of course, they will also inspire you with their instrumental skills.
