She often performs her own compositions, showcasing both her pianistic skill and compositional depth.

The Philharmonie Berlin is a renowned concert hall with significant architectural and acoustic importance. Completed in 1963, it was designed by Hans Scharoun and is celebrated for its asymmetrical, tent-like structure. This unconventional design was revolutionary for its time, prioritizing acoustic quality over traditional symmetrical concert hall layouts. The hall is home to the Berliner Philharmoniker orchestra and is widely regarded as one of the world’s leading concert venues due to its exceptional acoustics – achieved through innovative reflector technology – and its cultural significance within Berlin’s artistic landscape. It underwent extensive renovations completed in 2013 to further enhance these qualities and modernize facilities.
