Isabel Karajan in Stravinsky’s “Histoire du soldat”
The celebrations for the 25th anniversary of the Chamber Music Hall of the Philharmonie in Berlin had many highlights. One of which was undoubtedly an appearance by Isabel Karajan, eldest daughter of Herbert von Karajan. She has made an outstanding name for herself as an actress and gave a demonstration of her skills and versatility for this anniversary as the narrator in Stravinsky’s Histoire du soldat.
