Organ of the Philharmonie Berlin | Picture: Heribert Schindler

For Mozart, the organ was the queen of instruments. On five Sundays per season, the world's most famous organists invite the public to an organ matinee at the Philharmonie Berlin, often joined by musicians from the Berlin Philharmonic Orchestra. These matinees have become an important meeting place for fans of organ music.
