On stage with the best!
Apply now for an audition and become a member of the Junge Deutsche Philharmonie! If the incomparable sound of a symphony orchestra, tours and concerts at home and abroad, stages like the Berlin, Cologne, or Elbphilharmonie are your thing, if you like to venture into new territory and want to fulfill your musical aspirations with dedicated passion, then you've come to the right place. In the Junge Deutsche Philharmonie, the best students from German-speaking music conservatories come together in an ensemble with the highest artistic standards. In addition to the great symphonic repertoire, contemporary music and historical performance practice are key thematic areas. Highly motivated and excellently prepared, the orchestra goes on tour 3-5 times a year with great soloists and conductors. With FREISPIEL, the orchestra has also been setting accents with interdisciplinary, experimental event formats since 2008.
The Junge Deutsche Philharmonie is organized democratically: the members and their commitment have been the heart and mind of the orchestra for more than 50 years: every single person is encouraged to actively participate in program planning, board work, and orchestra management. The passion for music and the experience of making music together is regularly passed on through self-planned music education projects. In addition, project days with various topics such as musician health, dramaturgy, or moderation are an essential part of the working phases for further qualification. Thus, the orchestra's educational mission – an extremely important link between studies and professional life – extends far beyond orchestral playing.
A prerequisite for participation is that you are between 18 and 26 years old and are studying at a German-speaking music conservatory.
Warm-up rooms are open from 9:00 AM. Please bring the piano scores as a precaution. The piano is tuned to 443 Hz.
