The storytelling concert
The RSB series “Erzählkonzerte” (Storytelling Concerts), in collaboration with rbb’s radioeins and radio3, impressively blends the genres of literary readings and symphony concerts. The large orchestra welcomes a narrator into its ranks, who tells a story to the audience either in alternation with or in conjunction with the live music. Thomas Mann met Franz Schubert, Virginia Woolf met Fanny Hensel, and Leo Tolstoy met Mel Bonis.
In 2026/2027, the focus will be on two very different Berlin novels: “Hours Like Days” by Shelly Kupferberg (2026) and “Little Man—What Now?” by Hans Fallada (1932).
