About
The brass ensemble of the Berliner Philharmoniker is one of the longest playing chamber music groups. The common interest in solo music is considered to be equivalent to the members ' daily orchestral work. The nuanced blowing technique and the sound beauty of the favorite German instruments of this Ensemble. The standard ensemble, each with four trumpets and trombones, is to be regarded as authentic for the music of the 16th and 17th century, which is a focus of the repertoire.
Of course, the musicians move their instruments from high B-trumpets, bass trumpets, up to the contrabass trombone. Sometimes other artists and other instruments such as horns, Tuba or drums are also involved. This variety allows the performance of music of many eras and styles – up to adaptations of the Beatles. The Ensemble regularly performs a highly successful concert activity in many European music venues and festivals as well as on tours to Japan. In addition, there are numerous record, radio and television productions.
