Discourse in the Philharmonie “Between the election of Donald Trump and the forthcoming Bundestag elections: What does the new year hold for Germany?”

Date & Time
Tue, Dec 10, 2024, 20:00
Donald Trump’s victory in the US presidential election will change the country: democracy is in danger, observers believe, and society could become more divided. However, Germany is also facing major changes following the collapse of the “traffic light coalition”. A new federal parliament is due to be elected in February 2025. What will both events mean for German politics? The long-serving Governing Mayor of Berlin and current SPD member of the Bundestag Michael Müller and playwright and director Patty Kim Hamilton discuss this with Christiane Florin.

New Year at the Philharmonie

Wed, Jan 8, 2025, 20:00
Bernhard Forck (Conductor), Anna Prohaska (Soprano), Deutsches Symphonie-Orchester Berlin
She’s got it, that certain something stars are made of: Anna Prohaska. Recalcitrant look, cheeky wisecracks, an avowed metal fan, yet at the same time thoughtful, deep. »I love being on stage,« she says, and she evidently finds the right tone for each and every musical style, even in operas with »rather convoluted language«. With her luminous soprano, she will rejoice in Mozart’s motet ›Exsultate, jubilate‹, taking it to soaring heights. Hallelujah!

Presidential elections will be held in the United States at the beginning of November. Incumbent Joe Biden wants to run again for the Democrats. The Republicans are likely to send former President Donald Trump into the race, although he still has to face a number of court cases before election day. What does the election of one or the other mean for Germany and the world? Deutschlandfunk journalist Christiane Florin discusses this with author Annika Brockschmidt and Ingo Zamperoni. The ARD Tagesthemen presenter lived in the USA for many years and is a recognised expert on American politics.

Matinee of the Friends of the Berliner Philharmoniker e. V. “Introduced: New Members of the Berliner Philharmoniker”

Sun, Jun 22, 2025, 11:00
Philharmonie Berlin, Main Auditorium (Berlin)
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.

Jeffrey Bruinsma - Art of the In-Between

Sat, Jan 25, 2025, 20:15
Jeffrey Bruinsma (Violin), Jesse van Ruller (Guitar), Thomas Pol (Double bass), Jamie Peet (Drums)
It goes without saying that The Concertgebouw and jazz & pop music make a perfect combination. The stages of both the Main Hall and the Recital Hall have borne witness to nearly the whole of jazz history. Sarah Vaughan and Ella Fitzgerald have both performed here, as have Miles Davis and Louis Armstrong. Famous pop stars and bands that have graced the stage of the Main Hall include Frank Zappa, the Doors and the Eagles, to name but a few. Legendary concerts, in the present as well as the past.

“The 75th birthday” ‒ A matinee to celebrate the Friends of the Berliner Philharmoniker association

A matinee to celebrate the association's anniversary75 years ago, on 17 October 1949, our association was founded. Its aim was to build a new concert hall for the Berliner Philharmoniker, who had become homeless during World War II. The “Friends” formed a large citizens' initiative and, with their contributions and donation campaigns, made a significant impact on the opening of the Philharmonie, which was designed by Hans Scharoun, in 1963. But there was still a lot to do afterwards: The chamber music hall opened its doors in 1987, the orchestra received valuable instruments, and many major projects such as the Philharmoniker's Europakonzert were realised with our support. We want to celebrate this round birthday: with prominent guests and, of course, with great music played by members of the Berliner Philharmoniker. Afterwards, we will celebrate the anniversary together in the foyer.

Matinée of the Friends of the Berliner Philharmoniker e. V. “Music must enchant” ‒ A Maurice Ravel matinée

Sun, Mar 9, 2025, 11:00
Philharmonie Berlin, Main Auditorium (Berlin)

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.
