orchestras of the city of Berlin, present an ambitious festival program, each
with a different thematic focus.
Highlight of the
Musikfest Berlin
- Great orchestras, vocal
and instrumental ensembles and many soloists
- Famous stars and
promising newcomers
- Current premieres and
first performances
- International
co-productions
Along with opera, theater
and cinema, the orchestra is one of the most complex, largest and most
multifaceted "machines" that Western culture has produced for the
production of performances and emotions.
The variety of orchestral formations
that exist today has expanded significantly under the influence of modern
technologies and with knowledge of historical performance practices.
The
festival, which lasts about three weeks, is therefore dedicated not only to the
symphonic repertoire, but in particular to the significant, rare, forgotten,
unusual and new works from history and the present.
The Musikfest Berlin sees
itself as a forum for the innovative artistic work of the major orchestras and
ensembles of international musical life.
