Home Music Berlin presents outstanding classical musicians from Berlin, who, at the invitation of film director Jan Schmidt-Garre, will each give a concert for one evening. From now on, for a yet indefinite period, these concerts will take place every Monday and Friday evening at 8.30 pm in the Schinkel Pavillon and will be broadcast live on our website.

With Andreas Ottensamer (Clarinet), Gabriel Schwabe (Cello), Zlata Chochieva (Piano), Dietrich Henschel (Baritone), Severin von Eckardstein (Piano), Igor Gryshyn (Piano), Francesco Piemontesi (Piano), Christian Tetzlaff (Violin), Olena Tokar (Soprano), Jacquelyn Wagner (Soprano) and others.

Home Music Berlin is hosted by Schinkel Pavillon in the framework of DISAPPEARING BERLIN. At the end of the one-year run, the performance programme returns to Schinkel Pavillon’s own space for a series of concerts in the now empty exhibition space: set in Berlin’s historic Mitte, the iconic architecture, designed by Richard Paulick in the late 60s as a representative venue for the GDR, is in a location where massive changes have been irretrievably and progressively taking shape. When Schinkel Pavillon first opened in 2007, the Palace of the Republic and the Dome were the backdrop for the first exhibitions – a view, that doesn’t exist anymore. Instead, generic townhouses (Berlin’s most expensive speculative real estate) obstruct the horizon – behind them tower cranes appear with the new Stadtschloss under construction. The increasingly generic neighborhood is in constant flux, but with every new investor moving in, Schinkel Pavillon’s very existence here is more and more at stake.

For over a year, DISAPPEARING BERLIN by Schinkel Pavillon has been staging unique Berlin architecture and unique urban spaces that are about to be demolished, privatised or converted, after having shaped the cityscape and cultural life for decades. With performances, dance and concerts we explore the city and the potential of its endangered, forgotten and newly emerging spaces. In a playful approach to art, new perspectives on a change, that cannot be stopped, but shaped, are developed.

Home Music Berlin is produced in cooperation with Naxos Audiovisuell, takt1 and PARS Media.
