The two pianos series
You can simply go to a concert at the Philharmonie, spontaneously, during your lunch break – and with free admission: every Wednesday at 13:00 between September and June. The programme lasts 40 to 50 minutes: chamber music, piano works or a percussion duo – everything from Tchaikovsky to tango. Members of the Berliner Philharmoniker and the Karajan Academy regularly perform, as well as guests from the Deutsches Symphonie-Orchester, the Staatskapelle Berlin and the Berlin music conservatories. As can be expected at a lunch concert, catering is available from 12 noon until shortly before the concert begins.
Embark on a musical river voyage with Kirill Petrenko and the Berliner Philharmoniker in this family concert. The trip starts at the bubbling source of the Vltava, past a cheerful hunting party, a joyful peasant wedding, raging rapids, dancing water nymphs, and a medieval castle. With his tone poems Vyšehrad and The Moldau from his cycle Má vlast (My Fatherland), the Czech composer Bedřich Smetana describes the beauty of his homeland and at the same time creates one of the best-loved works of classical music with The Moldau.
With his cycle Má vlast, Bedřich Smetana created a musical declaration of love for his Czech homeland – its landscape, its history, its legends. Kirill Petrenko presents the six symphonic poems of the cycle, each of which takes us into very different Romantic sound worlds – sometimes majestic, sometimes dramatic, sometimes lyrical, but always full of Bohemian musical elan. The best-known work from it is undoubtedly The Moldau, a lively, folkloric tone poem that portrays the river of the same name.
