Our classical concerts at the Philharmonie Berlin 2025 & 2026

Experience concerts at the Philharmonie Berlin, a place where history has been written with music, but also where the future is created. The iconic building directly at Potsdamer Platz is the Berliner Philharmoniker's venue, but the superb sounds of our four ROC ensembles can be heard there too.

Concerts of the ROC at the Philharmonie Berlin

The first tones an audience ever heard in the great hall designed by Hans Scharoun were in 1963, with Herbert von Karajan conducting. Scharoun broke all the rules of classical music then in effect, positioning the ensemble in the centre, at the very heart of the space. In so doing, he also dared a social repositioning of classical music – a unique step at the time. This singularity had to be compensated acoustically, which occurred with the help of acoustician Lothar Cremer.

The result is a breathtaking sound space with a choir or orchestra in the middle, giving ensembles the opportunity to fully unfold musically and offer you concerts full of unforgettable moments of classical music, such as the ROC's Christmas and New Year's concerts.

The Chamber Music Hall of the Philharmonie Berlin

The Chamber Music Hall mirrors the concept of the large hall of the Philharmonie Berlin: here, too, the choir and orchestra are located in the middle of the room - the audience, of which around 1100 can fit into the Chamber Music Hall, is located around it.

The fact that so many people can fit into a chamber music hall makes the name almost absurd.

Accordingly, the chamber music hall program of our ensembles includes works for smaller ensembles, often purely choral works, as well as larger works, which not only find the necessary space in a chamber music hall of such dimensions, but also a worthy location.

The program in the chamber music hall of the Philharmonie Berlin is therefore extremely diverse, always offering the audience welcome, powerful and subtle musical surprises.

Next to classical music giants like Mozart, Beethoven or Rachmaninoff, the ROC also perform younger artists such as Jelena Firssowa at their concerts in the Philharmonie Berlin. That promises extremely diverse concert programs, whose common denominator is always the concerts' superior quality.

Get yourself and your loved ones tickets to the Philharmonie Berlin and enjoy an incomparable evening from our program, filled with excellently performed classical music from one of our four top ensembles!
