Das Kritische Orchester

Since 2002, professional orchestra musicians have volunteered annually for the Critical Orchestra® to provide feedback to young conducting talents during orchestra rehearsals. Conductors from around the world apply through the Conducting Forum of the German Music Council, which organizes the event in cooperation with the university. Prof. Lothar Strauß, 1st concertmaster of the Staatskapelle Berlin, has been the Artistic Director since 2014. The final round is open to the public.
