New Year’s Eve Concert 2026 - Berliner Philharmoniker

Director: Kirill Petrenko

Conductor: Kirill Petrenko
Special guest: Alexander Malofeev piano, David Guerrier trumpet

Kirill Petrenko and the Berliner Philharmoniker bring 2026 to a close with wit and irony. The programme is framed by the overtures to Otto Nicolai’s Die lustigen Weiber von Windsor and Johann Strauss’s Der Zigeunerbaron. Dmitri Shostakovich’s Concerto for Piano and Trumpet offers a brilliant parody of the concerto genre, with Alexander Malofeev – making his Philharmoniker debut – and principal trumpet David Guerrier as soloists. Sergei Prokofiev’s “Classical” Symphony is an affectionate play on the traditions of Viennese style, while Richard Strauss’s tone poem Till Eulenspiegel portrays its eponymous hero with a knowing wink and a taste for the grotesque.
