Full-length concert:
When the Berlin Wall was erected in 1961, the Berlin Philharmonie was also under construction just a few hundred metres away, and thus suddenly found itself right on the border between East and West. In 1989, the orchestra took the fall of the Wall as an opportunity to hold a musical celebration for this unique event with a free concert for the citizens of the GDR – tickets were given out on presentation of identity cards. In the packed-out Philharmonie, Daniel Barenboim conducted the First Piano Concerto and the Seventh Symphony by Ludwig van Beethoven: an extraordinarily emotional moment for musicians and audience alike.
