Berlin, Philharmonie Berlin — Kammermusiksaal
About the Event
With verve into the new year! 'Swing King' Andrej Hermlin and his Swing Dance Orchestra welcome the new year in suspenders, tie and bow tie. Perfectly dressed up, they present well‐known evergreens, hot rhythms and peppery big band sounds in the rousing 1940s style.
Accompanied by the multi‐talents Rachel and David Hermlin, who finally provide the finish for the perfect swing sound, Andrej Hermlin dedicates himself with a noticeable passion to this flourishing time and its heroes Benny Goodman, Duke Ellington and Glenn Miller. The orchestra only plays original arrangements. Authentic and staged to perfection in a way you can only create if you live it.
Philharmonie Berlin
The Philharmonie is a concert hall opened in 1963 in West Berlin. It is considered the musical heart of the German capital, as well as the new urban centre after the fall of the infamous Berlin Wall. Its distinctive bright yellow exterior and unusual tent-like shape quickly made it a city landmark. The surprising design and architecture were initially viewed negatively by many, but the Philharmonie is now considered a model for concert halls worldwide. The architect, Hans Scharoun, aimed to design a concert hall in which the focal point - the musicians on the concert platform - is equally visible from every seat, an aim that gave rise to the hall's unusual shape. Since its inauguration, the Berliner Philharmonie has hosted numerous concerts, often featuring acclaimed soloists and conductors.
