freeEroica im Säälchen Berlin

To kick off“explore Berlin,” we invite you to two electrifying double concerts in Friedrichshain-Kreuzberg on September 3 and 4. Our venue is the Säälchen on the creative Holzmarkt25 grounds—a place that stands for urban transformation, freedom, and community like no other. It’s exactly the right space for ourfreeEroica program. We’re dedicating ourselves to Ludwig van Beethoven’s Symphony No. 3, one of the greatest revolutionary acts in music history. But we’re not simply reenacting Beethoven—we’re bringing him to life anew. With gripping re-compositions, jazz influences, and radical improvisation—while honoring this cherished musical legacy—we break down the work and translate the spirit of that upheaval directly into the present. The orchestra moves freely through the Säälchen, sweeping the audience along and making the pursuit of the unexpected physically palpable.
