The Philharmonie organ is not just an acoustic marvel. It is also an aesthetic delight. Its design is an elegant and expressive reflection of the auditorium's architecture.  It has more than 6,500 pipes, allowing it to produce an almost infinite range of tone colours. In November, this unique instrument will be sixty years old. We are celebrating this anniversary with a late-night concert, and it will also be shown off to magnificent effect at a concert with the Berliner Philharmoniker. Our subscription series of organ recitals will additionally mark this anniversary.
