Brandenburgisches Staatsorchester Frankfurt live in Frankfurt (Oder)

Experience Brandenburgisches Staatsorchester Frankfurt live on September 18th

Brandenburgisches Staatsorchester Frankfurt (BSO) will perform at the Kleist Forum in Frankfurt (Oder) on September 18, 2026. The orchestra is recognized for its versatile repertoire spanning from Baroque to contemporary compositions, with a particular focus on German Romantic and early 20th-century works. They frequently engage in projects exploring lesser-known composers alongside established masters, and are known for a commitment to both orchestral tradition and innovative programming.

The Kleist Forum serves as a significant cultural venue within Frankfurt (Oder). Originally constructed in 1961 as the “Theater der Freundschaft” (Theatre of Friendship), it was a key symbol of East German cultural policy, intended to foster relationships with Poland. Following German reunification, it underwent extensive renovation and was renamed in honour of Heinrich von Kleist, the dramatist born near Frankfurt (Oder).

Today, the Kleist Forum functions as a multi-purpose space hosting theatre productions, concerts – including those of the BSO who regularly perform there – dance performances, and other cultural events. Its architecture reflects modernist principles while incorporating elements acknowledging its historical context and regional significance.
