The Konzerthaus Berlin, situated in the heart of Berlin on Gendarmenmarkt, is one of the most renowned concert venues in the world. With a rich history dating back to 1818, the Konzerthaus Berlin has evolved from a theater to a leading concert hall. After severe war damage, the building was reconstructed from 1977 to 1984 and reopened as a concert hall. Since 1994, it has carried its current name[3].
The Konzerthaus Berlin offers a wide-ranging concert program that includes symphony concerts, chamber music, family concerts, and innovative educational formats. The house is home to the Konzerthausorchester Berlin, which performs under the direction of the new chief conductor Joana Mallwitz, as well as with guests like Iván Fischer and Christoph Eschenbach.
The mission of the Konzerthaus Berlin is to provide people, regardless of their background or social status, the opportunity to experience and enjoy classical music. The Konzerthaus strives to be a central place for the musical diversity of Berlin and beyond.
During the COVID-19 pandemic, the Konzerthaus Berlin launched a series of initiatives under the motto #konzertZUhaus to reach the audience even in times of crisis.
The Konzerthaus Berlin is more than just a concert hall – it is a vibrant place of music, education, and cultural diversity that appeals to and brings together people of all ages and backgrounds.
