The Phantasm ensemble, a viola da gamba consort, has been presenting its own concert series at St. Elisabeth Church in Berlin-Mitte since mid-March 2025.
The concerts of the 2025/26 season offer Berlin audiences the opportunity to explore new compositional territory—the English composers Orlando Gibbons, Henry Purcell, and William Lawes are hardly known in their homeland, but little known on the European mainland.
