Experience the grandeur of Richard Strauss with Four Last Songs and the expansive Alpine Symphony performed at the Berliner Philharmonie. Tickets on Mood.
Richard Strauss's fascination with song began in his youth, initially pairing voice with piano before expanding into orchestral works in the 1890s. His late compositions include the deeply moving Four Last Songs from 1948, which delicately explore themes of life and death through a balanced interplay of words and music. His series of tone poems concluded with the Alpine Symphony, premiered in 1915, a work that redefined program music and orchestral instrumentation. The piece takes listeners on a musical ascent through the high mountains, capturing everything from the sunrise and the summit's peak to treacherous moments and a powerful storm. Strauss created a sonically rich and complex work that utilizes the full potential of the orchestra through sophisticated sound effects and descriptive musical storytelling.
The event is scheduled for October 21, 2026, at the Berliner Philharmonie located on Herbert-von-Karajan-Straße 1.
The program focuses on the works of Richard Strauss, specifically featuring his Four Last Songs and the Alpine Symphony.
