Dear Friends of the Berliner Philharmoniker,

Tradition, innovation, passion and top quality at the global level – these are words to describe the objectives and achievements of the Berliner Philharmoniker. For more than 125 years, the Berlin Philharmonic has been among the world’s leading orchestras, delighting audiences around the globe. All of these characteristics are what make the Berliner Philharmoniker the ideal partner for Deutsche Bank.

A new chapter has been opened to enrich this successful partnership: the Berliner Philharmoniker are making the orchestra’s live concerts accessible to classical music fans around the globe through the Digital Concert Hall. This innovation made possible by Deutsche Bank has generated extremely positive feedback, from around the world. The Digital Concert Hall is designed not only to transcend spatial boundaries, but also social and generational divides. What is more, the internet offers the opportunity to reach out to a greater audience of young people who until now have not had direct access to the world of classical music.

As a result, the Digital Concert Hall continues a tradition of commitment to society: for some time now, the Berliner Philharmoniker, through their project Zukunft@BPhil, with Deutsche Bank’s exclusive sponsorship, have been successful in generating enthusiasm for classical music among young people of various backgrounds, while fostering their interest in education and learning.

Our partnership with the Berliner Philharmoniker has been and continues to be unique, by combining classic music sponsorship with innovative cultural education work. Deutsche Bank is thus fulfilling its commitment as a responsible corporate citizen, by creating social capital – all around the globe.
