15 Years of the Digital Concert Hall
Even in the context of the orchestra’s extensive media experience, the launch of the Digital Concert Hall signified a quantum leap. Since the beginning of the 2008-09 season, all of the Philharmoniker’s Berlin programmes have been recorded, and on 6 January 2009 – a special concert – the first live transmission took place.
Today the Berliner Philharmoniker can be experienced nearly every week via livestream. Then, following post production, the concerts are made available in the Digital Concert Hall’s steadily growing on-demand archive. It now comprises more than 750 concerts. Along with this nearly unbroken documentation of the past 15 years, it also contains a number of historic productions.

But as music listening has fragmented, and become less Western-centric, one hit for everyone has turned into many hits for individuals and their scenes — and few lasting a full month, let alone an entire season.
