Young Euro Classic – Tomorrow's Musicians Today
Wolfgang Schreiber, Süddeutsche Zeitung, 24 August 2023
’Tomorrow’s musicians today’ is the motto of the festival Young Euro Classic in Berlin, offering a weekslong parade of international youth orchestras. Indeed: where young people play incendiary concerts in large groups on stage, the future of orchestral culture seems assured. And many in Berlin are interested in this; the main hall of the Konzerthaus on Gendarmenmarkt reports sold-out, even overflowing events. They are fascinating, these young musicians from all over Europe and beyond.
What is Young Euro Classic?
Since its first season in 2000, Young Euro Classic has developed into the most important international platform for young orchestras in the European classical music tradition. Always with an open ear for sonorous high cultures outside of Europe, the festival has dedicated itself to the equal exchange of cultures, traditions and countries in the spirit of its basic democratic idea. Young musicians from all over the world who are committed to the European orchestral tradition, a shared passion for music and concerts of the highest calibre are at the heart of the festival.
