Vangelis KoukidisDecember 25, 2017This really should be on your Berlin list. Pick any concert that is on while you visit the city and you won't regret it. Tickets are well priced compared to other cities. And the music is HEAVEN.Upvoted Feb 20- David HamiltonFebruary 14, 2014A great line up of concerts and performers in this amazing venue. They have cheap tickets, often from around €20. The acoustics of the building mean you'll hear great music wherever you sit.
Alessandro MingioneNovember 30, 2016Tickets that go for 20€ are a cheap and assured way of getting to see at least one show before you leave Berlin. Position in the K area is actually pretty good, but you won't be facing the orchestra.
Sissi ChenMarch 11, 2016Very beautiful inside of the building! The stage is centred, so you can have a great view from almost everywhere!
johnlemonJune 1, 2017The music hall is absolutely unique and omg the performance was unbeliveable. Get ready for an unforgettable experience!
Gizem SncrOctober 15, 2017architecture is pretty amazing. i am suprized with the design of the "kammermusiksaal" seat organization. It's a nice place for listening recitals and chamber music.
frickaMarch 31, 2016amazing building! i think 1 hour before they play, they explain what the play is about, don't miss that!
DrorMarch 18, 2017Lunch concert on Tuesdays is recommended and for free. Concert start at 13:00 sharp. But you need to get a spot so come as early as 12:00.- Arno WolterApril 7, 2015They give out the seats for the lunch concerts on Tuesday at noon, so don't expect to be let in at 1 pm when the covert actually starts, because all seats might be taken already.
- Jordan SmithSeptember 12, 2013Witnessed one of the most interesting concerts of my life here. Boulez conducted: Webern 6 pieces, Schoenberg 5 pieces, Bartok 4 pieces, and Berg 3 pieces. Read more
Come early for all the concerts. Enjoy some hors deuvres with a glass of Riesling or a German wurst with a bier. Soothe in the atmosphere and walk slowly to your seat. Gives you the total experience.
IMO the best concert stage ever. Hans Sharoun designed the hall in such a way that every seat affords a unique view of the stage. Even the cheapest seats are excellent.
It has great concerts and on Tuesdays a very fine free Lunch concert in a relaxed and positive atmosphere- Arnau Sala SolerJune 4, 2012Concert hall and home to the Berlin Philharmonic Orchestra. Philharmonie comprises a Großer Saal of 2,440 seats for orchestral concerts and a chamber-music hall, the Kammermusiksaal, of 1,180 seats.
VasilisFebruary 2, 2015amazing! perfect sound, great audience, music was magical! every visitor should pay a visit!Book online in advance.
SevengoodJune 9, 2015Wherever you seat, you'll enjoy your concert - The acoustic is fantastic… so open your ears and enjoy the show!
Freddie HarrisonFebruary 10, 2016The free concert (Tuesdays, 1pm) was great, but even getting there an hour early made it difficult to beat the crowds!
Andrea B.February 9, 2015Beautiful building and amazing acoustics in Kammermusiksal. Unfortunately,i didn't have the opportunity to visit the big one yet
Lunch Concert Tuesdays 13-14h great! (free entry, too)
Heisen BergFebruary 8, 2017No one compares to the Berliner Philharmoniker. The acoustics are great thanks to amazing architecture,
SebOctober 26, 2012A perfect experience in Berlin, where almost everything else is an ode to imperfection.
John GranthamAugust 7, 2014Excellent acoustics even if the architecture is a little ugly and run down.
Best orchestra in the world. Must Do, when you are in Berlin
Jeff WeinsteinSeptember 29, 2013Cheap seats if you go an hour ahead and are a student or near 25 years old.
Upneet UpneetJanuary 15, 2015Don't wait last minute for tickets, and wear something NICE for God'sake.
- Bonus tip: remember to order drinks for the intermission before the show and avoid the lines. There are several bars though so never that bad.
