Daniel Barenboim conducts the Berliner Philharmoniker at the Staatsoper Unter den Linden
In April 1998 the Berlin Staatsoper threw a very special party for its musical neighbours when, for the first time since German reunification, the Berliner Philharmoniker visited the opera’s legendary home on Unter den Linden. The Staatsoper’s general music director, Daniel Barenboim, presided over a programme of works spanning much of the nineteenth century – with Beethoven’s Eighth Symphony, Schumann’s Konzertstück for four horns, and Liszt’s Les Préludes.
