Concert for all

Finding ways, building bridges, opening doors

With its ‘Concert for All’, the RSB creates special opportunities to engage with classical music and invites people with hearing and cognitive impairments to experience concerts on their own terms. The format embodies inclusion in practice and is firmly rooted in the orchestra’s artistic identity.

In the coming season, it will be further developed and expanded to include additional opportunities for interaction and exchange. Institutions and initiatives are invited to attend rehearsals or workshops and to develop new forms of collaboration with us. The aim is to inspire even more people with a passion for music and to reach them in the long term.

“Innovation Prize” 2024

The RSB is honored with the Innovation Award of the German Orchestra Foundation for the “Concert for All”!

With the inclusive project “Concert for All”, the RSB opens the doors of classical music to people with auditory and cognitive impairments and sets a strong example for more accessibility and inclusion in classical concerts.
This commitment is supported by close cooperation with partners such as the Center for Culture and Visual Communication of the Deaf in Berlin/Brandenburg, the Landesvereinigung Selbsthilfe Berlin e.V., Lebenshilfe e.V. and funding from the Federal Government Commissioner for Culture and the Media (BKM).

Voices from the audience

“I was so fulfilled and moved by this concert and seeing all the people with disabilities fully participating!!! I almost never want to experience another concert other than with the dance accompaniment and animation. Even the welcome in the foyer with the instruments was great.”

“The atmosphere was very touching! A concert experience that stays in the memory.”

“A musical experience on several levels, visually, via the ears, via the body….”

“It was truly a concert for all from the first to the last minute, with an incredibly poignant tension and at the same time a cheerfully relaxed atmosphere in the hall.”
