Wayne Marshall makes his debut conducting the Berliner Philharmoniker and is also the soloist in Gershwin’s Rhapsody in Blue. Star percussionist Martin Grubinger plays John Williams: The Special Edition in an arrangement by his father.

The concert on 26 June 2021 is a “BärCODE only” pilot project.

What is a BärCODE?

The concert on 26 June 2021 is a “BärCODE only” pilot project. You will receive the BärCODE as confirmation of a negative antigen test at one of over 20 BärCODE test centres. We recommend that you book an appointment early at one of these BärCODE test centres.
