Dear Visitors,

It is with great regret that we must announce the cancellation of the festival Projections due to significant reductions in Berlin's cultural budget for 2025. These budgetary cuts have also severely impacted the Konzerthaus, making this difficult decision unavoidable.

The festival Projections was conceived as an innovative and interdisciplinary event, designed to offer fresh perspectives on music and art. Its cancellation represents a profound loss—not only for us and our artists but also for you, our audience. Despite our strong commitment to the festival's vision, we were forced to make this decision in order to maintain the continuation of our regular concert programming.

We thank you for your understanding and support in these challenging times.
Your Konzerthaus Berlin

Three sets, ranging from experimental soundscapes and electronic compositions to hypnotizing beats, each in combination with visual forms of expression - a broad spectrum of audiovisual performance art and artistic reflection await you on the opening evening of our festival!

“mirror//flesh” for trumpet and electronics questions the relationship between artist and audience and addresses self-reflection in the performing arts. The interplay of sound, space, light and choreographic elements dissolves the boundaries between listening and watching.

“Resonance of Berlin”, an audiovisual homage to Berlin, uses AI-supported sound and image compositions to present an artistic ‘city map’ that captures personal and collective perceptions of the metropolis. The performance allows the audience to experience its complexity in a new way and invites them to reflect on the influence of perception on artistic creation.

Istanbul Ghetto Club, a multidisciplinary Berlin music collective with a sense of humor and an erotic touch, combines Anatolian, Greek and Mesopotamian melodies with modular synthesizers, visuals and performing arts. They hide behind masks and veils, but have nothing to hide. Anatolian Acid” emerges from tradition and zeitgeist, sweeping the audience away in a live performance and inviting them to dance.
