Rundfunk-Sinfonieorchester Berlin live in Berlin

Experience Rundfunk-Sinfonieorchester Berlin live on February 5th

Rundfunk-Sinfonieorchester Berlin (RSB) is renowned for its broad repertoire encompassing works from the Baroque period through contemporary compositions, with a particular strength in 20th and 21st-century music. The orchestra maintains a commitment to both established masterpieces and premieres of new works, often collaborating with prominent contemporary composers. Historically rooted in radio broadcasting – originally founded in 1923 as a radio orchestra – the RSB developed a tradition of technical precision and interpretive flexibility suited for recording and live performance.

Konzerthaus Berlin occupies a building with significant architectural and cultural history. Originally constructed between 1818 and 1821 by architect Karl Friedrich Schinkel, it initially served as the *Königliches Schauspielhaus* (Royal Playhouse) and later as a concert hall. Heavily damaged during World War II, it was rebuilt in the early 1980s, meticulously restoring Schinkel’s original neoclassical design while incorporating modern acoustic improvements. The hall is celebrated for its exceptional acoustics and intimate atmosphere, differing from the larger scale of other Berlin concert venues.
