The musical talkshow with exciting guests, lively conversations and good music hosted by Dirk Kaftan

In the three years of the Beethoven-Lounge, many exciting musical contributions have come onto the stage: With orchestra and without, classical and modern, serious and tongue-in-cheek. Some may remember the first Beethoven-Lounge in 2020, in which the world-class pianist Kit Armstrong shrank the Pantheon hall to 88 keys. Or the crazy a cappella singing of mummy’s children. Or the fusion of the Beethoven Orchestra and the Federal Youth Orchestra with a specially composed Beethoven Mish Mash by Wolf Kerschek. Not to forget the excerpts from Beethoven’s symphonies, which our orchestra musicians performed fearlessly and soloistically in the individually cast „Corona versions“. The musical programme items of the Beethoven Lounges often result from the composition of the guests and in connection with the topics of conversation – so you can be curious!
