This 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.

David Hamilton

A 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 Mingione

Tickets 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 Chen

Very beautiful inside of the building! The stage is centred, so you can have a great view from almost everywhere!

Gizem Sncr

architecture 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 .

johnlemon

The music hall is absolutely unique and omg the performance was unbeliveable. Get ready for an unforgettable experience!

Eileen Cham

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.

Jordan Smith

Witnessed 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

Lunch 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.

fricka

amazing building! i think 1 hour before they play, they explain what the play is about, don't miss that!

Vasilis

amazing! perfect sound, great audience, music was magical! every visitor should pay a visit!Book online in advance.

Arno Wolter

They 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.

Steen Hestehave

It has great concerts and on Tuesdays a very fine free Lunch concert in a relaxed and positive atmosphere

Matthias

Andrea B.

Beautiful building and amazing acoustics in Kammermusiksal. Unfortunately,i didn't have the opportunity to visit the big one yet

Ronnie Rocket

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.

Freddie Harrison

The free concert (Tuesdays, 1pm) was great, but even getting there an hour early made it difficult to beat the crowds!

Awesome! Free concert in the lobby on Tuesday's at 13.00
