Berlin On December 4th, the Handelsblatt is a guest of the Berliner Philharmoniker. At 6.30 p.m. Handelsblatt Editor-in-Chief Sebastian Matthes and Olaf Maninger, Managing Director of Berlin Phil Media GmbH, will take you to the Philharmonie Berlin in a live stream: Look forward to exclusive insights and exciting conversations.

Afterwards, at 7 p.m., we will enjoy the performance of Gustav Mahler’s Fourth Symphony with you in the Digital Concert Hall, the streaming platform of the Berlin Philharmonic.

The work occupies a special place among the composer’s symphonies due to its delicate transparency: a sunny idyll, which, however, seems to be exposed to constant threat. “It is the serenity of a higher world in it, alien to us, which has something horrible and gruesome for us,” says Mahler.

The conductor of this performance is Semyon Bychkov. A new piano concerto by Thomas Larcher can also be heard with soloist Kirill Gerstein.
