Be yourself – Be music – Be Phil

What connects us, the Berliner Philharmoniker, with classical music fans all over the world is a passion for classical music. This is why the project Be Phil Orchestra is very close to our hearts: around one hundred amateur musicians work together with our chief conductor Kirill Petrenko and members of the Berliner Philharmoniker to prepare and play a concert programme.

In November, the Be Phil Orchestra is going on tour in Japan. A specially compiled suite from Sergei Prokofiev’s Romeo and Juliet will be performed under the baton of chief conductor Kirill Petrenko. The programme will also include Johannes Brahms’ Double Concerto for Violin, Cello and Orchestra, conducted by Raphael Haeger, percussionist with the Philharmoniker. The solo parts will be played by the Berliner Philharmoniker’s 1st concertmaster, Daishin Kashimoto, and the orchestra’s 1st principal cellist, Ludwig Quandt. Both works will be rehearsed by Raphael Haeger and other members of the Berliner Philharmoniker. The highlight will be a concert conducted by Kirill Petrenko with the works by Brahms and Prokofiev at Suntory Hall on 26 November.

It is no longer possible to apply. Thank you for the numerous applications!
