Flutist Bettina Junge, founding member and long-time artistic director of Ensemble Mosaik, founded in 1997, had a significant influence on both the ensemble and the Berlin music scene through her tireless dedication and artistic vision.

In memory of this exceptional figure in musical life, Ensemble Mosaik organised a concert in 2025 and will present the second part on 18 July 2026 with a »Songbook for Bettina«: composers with whom Bettina maintained close artistic collaborations and friendships will contribute short tributes for the entire ensemble.
Stefan Streich, a long-time close collaborator of Bettina and the ensemble, will shape the second half of the concert with another world premiere dedicated to her.
Following the concert, the audience is warmly invited to gather with the ensemble in a moment of quiet reflection.
- The concert is supported by the Lotto-Stiftung Berlin and the Senate Department for Culture and Social Cohesion.
