Celebrate Twelve Decades With Deutsche Grammophon

”The yellow label” celebrates its 120th anniversary this year. On this occasion celebrations take place all around the globe, including a gala concert in the Berlin Philharmonie on November 6.

Among festivities marking the anniversary of Deutsche Grammophon, a spectacular concert was held on October 10 in the Forbidden City in Beijing, where soloists such as Daniil Trifonov and Aida Garifullina and the Shanghai Symphony Orchestra under Long Yu, delighted classical music fans in a worldwide livestream.

So, in line with this, the festivities now continues on November 6 in Berlin, when Lang Lang and Anne-Sophie Mutter together with the Staatskapelle Berlin under the direction of Manfred Honeck perform on the stage of the Berlin Philharmonie. This is an occasion to celebrate the history and the future of the world’s oldest record company, founded in 1898 by Emil Berliner as ”Deutsche Grammophon Gesellschaft”.
The concert program includes Beethoven’s Overture to Fidelio, Romance for Violin and Orchestra in F Major, Leonore Overture No. 3 in C Major, Mozart’s Concerto for Piano and Orchestra in C Minor K. 491 and John Williams’ Markings for violin, strings and harp.

The festival concert will be on the Arte livestream at 8 PM (Berlin time):
