End-of-season concert: “Latin-American night” Gustavo Dudamel at the Waldbühne

Sat, Jun 28, 2025, 20:15

Waldbühne

Berliner Philharmoniker (Orchestra), Gustavo Dudamel (Conductor), Ryan Speedo Green (Bass-Bariton)

Summer, energy, passion – Gustavo Dudamel and the Berliner Philharmoniker invite you to a Latin American night at the Waldbühne. The Venezuelan conductor performed at this venue back in 2008 under the motto Los ritmos de la noche. It was his debut with the Berliner Philharmoniker, and was met with great acclaim by the audience. Dudamel now celebrates the end of the season with the orchestra in the open air for the fourth time. The programme will include rousing dances from Bernstein’s musical West Side Story, in which Latin American sounds and rhythms are all-pervasive.

New Year’s Eve concert with Kirill Petrenko and Daniil Trifonov

Tue, Dec 31, 2024, 17:30

Philharmonie Berlin, Main Auditorium (Berlin)

Berliner Philharmoniker (Orchestra), Kirill Petrenko (Conductor), Daniil Trifonov (Piano)

Martha Argerich speaks of Daniil Trifonov with astonishment: “He has everything and more – tenderness, but also a demonic quality. I’ve never heard anything like it.” To round off the year, the star pianist performs Johannes Brahms’ monumentally virtuosic Piano Concerto No. 2 with the Berliner Philharmoniker and Kirill Petrenko. After the interval, the powerful and festive prelude from Richard Wagner’s opera Die Meistersinger von Nürnberg follows. The concert concludes with two lavishly-orchestrated dance works by Richard Strauss of a contrasting nature: the charming waltzes from Der Rosenkavalier and Salome’s Dance, with its exhibitionistic, almost brutal sensuality.
