Satisfactionaction

SATISFACTIONACTION creates a room where satisfaction through the useless and absurd repetition can be experienced immersively and celebrated collectively, and where the audience will get their money's worth through a multi-sensory experience. Is collective satisfaction merely an escape from the burning world, or does it also open up spaces where reality can be renegotiated? Composer Max Andrzejewski (photo) combines contemporary music with influences from minimal and experimental jazz.

FINITE

In their music theatre piece FINITE, composer Asia Ahmetjanova (photo) and director Franziska Angerer meditate on our relationship to death and how we deal with our own decay. In poetic images, a communal ritual emerges between mythology and performance, which searches for a lustful surrender to this ultimate consequence of life.

Topics

Chamber music in the Tischlerei

Tischlereikonzerte

The selection of works and the dramaturgical conception of the Tischlereikonzerte are in the hands of the musicians of the orchestra. They are inspired by the new productions or revivals of the opera programme to create stimulating themes and unusual programmes that are unparalleled in their musical range in Berlin.

Chamber Music I - 3 November 2025

Spotlights

This season, an extraordinary and personal programme entitled ‘Spotlights’ will once again be presented: musicians of the orchestra will perform works that are particularly close to their hearts. The programme ranges from world-famous pieces from the chamber music repertoire to genuine rarities that are seldom heard in concert halls. Enjoy favourite pieces, rarities and evergreens.

Chamber Music II - 17 December 2025

Guilty pleasures: A night of cheesy music

Even in classical music, there are works that border on kitsch. Our musicians and soloists from the ensemble present music for the heart and soul, including pieces by Rachmaninov, Dvorak and Edith Piaf. A word of advice: don't forget your handkerchiefs!

Chamber Music III - 24 January 2026

How does something new come into the world?

This chamber music concert focuses on upheavals and new beginnings in music: everything new develops from something that has gone before. But where and how exactly does it begin? Are there specific markers along the way? We embark on a search for clues in the works of Carlo Gesualdo, Ludwig van Beethoven, Richard Wagner and John Cage.

Chamber Music special - 8 October 2025

Against forgetfulness

In a moving fusion of words, images and sound, orchestra musicians commemorate former employees of our opera house who were expelled by the National Socialists from 1933 onwards. Between the works, Margarita Broich reads from personal documents belonging to Rudolf Bing, Edgar Frank, Nelly Hirth and Else Liebert.

Chamber Music IV - 16 March 2026

Where the lemons bloom – Italy, a place of yearning

Italy, the cradle of opera, was the cultural centre of Europe for centuries. The most famous instrumentalists and composers were educated here, and European writers travelled here to overcome their writer's block. We juxtapose original Italian music with music inspired by cultural exchange and read from Goethe's ‘Italian Journey’. Listen to works by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky, Antonio Vivaldi and Isabella Leonarda.

Chamber Music V - 13 May 2026

The sound of the forest – bringing nature to life

Composers throughout the centuries have expressed their relationship with nature and its creatures in music. How do we listen to this music today, in times of climate crisis and mass extinction, and how do younger composers address this topic? Listen to works by Sofia Asgatovna Gubaidulina, Franz Schubert, Olivier Messiaen and Kaija Saariaho.

Chamber Music VI - 11 June 2026

Crossbones

In order to make a living from composing, composers very often had to submit to the ideas of their principals, write commissioned works, and fulfil stylistic or casting requirements. Some, however, did not like this and resisted in their own way. In the last chamber music concert of the 2025/26 season, our academics present works by musical personalities who broke the mould: Ludwig van Beethoven, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, Dmitri Shostakovich.

Jazz, Jazz, Jazz

The Deutsche Oper Berlin Big Band and its “little sister”, the JazzCombo, have long since established their own tradition at the opera house. In addition to the established Jazz & Lyrics series in the Tischlerei, you can enjoy two major concerts: the 20th anniversary concert in the Philharmonie and the traditional New Year's Concert in the Main Auditorium.
