Season tickets on sale 5/1 for general public.
The Berliner Philharmoniker’s Karajan Akademie offers some of the world’s most gifted young musicians the opportunity to perfect their skills while studying, rehearsing, and regularly performing with the orchestra. Founded in 1972 by conductor Herbert von Karajan, the Akademie serves as the training ground for the next generation of musicians in the Berliner Philharmoniker and other orchestras around the world.
This concert, part of a weeklong residency that will include campus engagement and learning activities, will feature Akademie scholars alongside two Karajan Akademie mentors who are principal members of the Berliner Philharmoniker in an evening of mixed chamber music repertoire.
