The high-flying duo formed by Jonas Kaufmann and Diana Damrau continues its exploration of the German repertoire, always accompanied on piano by Helmut Deutsch, a master of the lied.

 

In 2018, the three of them performed a beautifully crafted recital dedicated to Wolf, before interpreting a program of Schumann and Brahms in 2022 that thrilled the audience at the Philharmonie. Alternating between solo pieces and duo works, Kaufmann and Damrau once again demonstrated their rapport and the artistic chemistry that binds them. For this concert, the tenor with the rich voice and deep tones, along with the radiant soprano, explore another aspect of a genre filled with jewels, featuring works—many of which are contemporary—by Mahler and Strauss, each composer responding to a romanticism reaching its conclusion. Helmut Deutsch skillfully crafts his accompaniments, providing the singers with a fitting setting.

Grande salle Pierre Boulez - Philharmonie


The Grande salle Pierre Boulez (Symphonic Hall) boasts innovations in architecture, stage design and acoustical engineering. Thanks to a modular design, its capacity increases from 2400 people in the symphonic configuration to 3600 when the parterre is converted into a standing room area.


All five levels of the Grande salle Pierre Boulez are accessed via the entrance on Level 3 of Philharmonie, which can be reached via stairways, escalators and two lifts, with direct access from the Porte de Pantin plaza and the Philharmonie parking facility.


From the entrance, stairways and lifts inside the hall take visitors to the various levels.


The Grande Salle Pierre Boulez has thirty designated seats for people with reduced mobility.
