Programme Introduction
Both Berlin Philharmonic and Vienna Philharmonic have always topped the list of the world’s first-class symphony orchestras. Besides symphonic orchestra music, musicians from these two orchestras sometimes form chamber music bands to give concerts in smaller scale. As a matter of fact, this has been very prevalent in Europe and America. For instance, the cello group and brass group of Berlin Philharmonic and the soloist group of Vienna Philharmonic have enjoyed prestige in the music world. On the one hand, chamber music performances can provide opportunities for musicians to demonstrate their musical talent and excellence at coordination; on the other, musicians need to listen to and complement each other while performing, which has always been a focus in trainings of modern symphony orchestras. These chamber music bands with top musicians and vocalists of different voices from the two above-mentioned orchestras and elsewhere are undoubtedly the best of their kinds.
