mit dem Konzerthausorchester Berlin und Joana Mallwitz

The one-hour short concerts “8Zehn30” on Thursday evenings at 6:30 p.m. in the Konzerthaus Berlin offer the perfect opportunity to leave everyday life behind and devote yourself to music for 60 minutes without interruption - regardless of whether it is time to finish work or have an evening shift. The musicians of the Konzerthausorchester Berlin put on a varied concert evening that begins with a personal introduction and ends with an after-concert drink together in the Beethoven Hall.


Ludwig van Beethoven's 5th Symphony of 1807/08 begins with four notes that are among the most famous beginnings of a work in music history. Its universe, according to a popular interpretation, is the individual and his fate. That is why it is unofficially nicknamed the “Symphony of Fate”, which does not come from Beethoven.

The composer struggled with his early onset of deafness. He found the strength not to despair in composing and also wanted to lift up fellow human beings in need: "Anyone who knows my music cannot become completely discouraged."
