Let’s go – the Flex package for beginners

The music at the Philharmonie Berlin is diverse and inspiring: with sounds that instantly fascinate, melodies that get stuck in your head, and rhythms that you will feel in your body. In this Flex package, we have put together music especially for people who want to discover our program for the first time. You will hear popular classical works by Handel, Mozart, Beethoven, Chopin and Tchaikovsky, but also jazz and world music. All of this is presented by the greats of the international classical music scene, like Martha Argerich, Daniel Barenboim, Mitsuko Ushida and Gustavo Dudamel, as well as Sonah Jobarteh, master of the West African bridge harp.
