Daniel Barenboim – 30 Jahre Staatsoper Unter den Linden & Staatskapelle Berlin

In May 1990, Daniel Barenboim first encountered the Staatskapelle Berlin at rehearsal for the Parsifal prelude. He was "fascinated by the sound of this orchestra. It reminded me of the sound I grew up with, the sound of the Israel Philharmonic Orchestra, whose musicians, for the most part, had immigrated from all over Europe" as he described his impressions years later.

Since then, this very special connection has existed, resulting in an impressive total of over 1,600 performances. To mark Daniel Barenboim's 80th birthday on November 15, 2022, this publication documents three decades of a formative and fulfilling collaboration with the Staatsoper Unter den Linden and the Staatskapelle Berlin.
