Chamber concerts of the DSO with the Prussian Cultural Heritage Foundation
The DSO's chamber music series is getting an exciting upgrade with the new series "10 MUSEUMS X 10 CONCERTS". Similar to the popular "Notturno" format, all ten dates are held in collaboration with the Prussian Cultural Heritage Foundation and offer visitors fascinating insights into the collections and exhibition rooms of the participating museums.

In keeping with the "Notturno" concept, the venues will be presented from 8 p.m. in guided tours and lectures by experts and curators, before the one-hour concerts begin at 9 p.m. and give the exhibition rooms, collections and exhibits a new artistic dimension.
Hermann Parzinger, President of the SPK, explains: "The format has proven to be a hit with audiences, the concerts are regularly sold out well in advance. But we still have many places where excellent chamber music can be played, and I am very pleased that the DSO has therefore extended the series with us to 10 concerts per season.«
DSO Director Thomas Schmidt-Ott: »For 15 years now, the cooperation concerts with the SPK have been a highlight in the DSO calendar and in Berlin's cultural life in general. It is great to now be able to offer our audience 10 evenings in 10 fascinating places of art and knowledge. We are very grateful to the SPK for expanding the series.«
The chamber concerts of the 2024/2025 season will take place at the following locations:
- Museum of European Cultures (Dahlem)
- James Simon Gallery (on Museum Island)
- Villa von der Heydt
- Cultural Forum
- Ibero-American Institute
- Unter den Linden State Library
- Musical Instrument Museum

Guided tours and lectures with experts and curators will bring the concert venues closer to the audience before the one-hour concerts give the pictures, sculptures and rooms completely new facets.
