Classical Music Concert Venues

With eight large symphony orchestras – including the world famous Berlin Philharmonic – Berlin is a paradise for classical music lovers from around the world. This is where music is played at its highest level; virtuosos from around the world such as Lang Lang and Fazil Say enrich the orchestra as “artists in residence”. Even beyond conventional performance locations, Berlin’s musicians are on the go: they are always putting classical music into new and exciting contexts, whether it be at well known festivals, in the open air, or sometimes even in night clubs.
