On stage with the best!
Apply now for an audition and become a member of the Junge Deutsche Philharmonie! If the incomparable sound of a symphony orchestra, tours and concerts at home and abroad, stages like the Berlin, Cologne, or Elbphilharmonie are your thing, if you like to try new things and want to fulfill your musical aspirations with dedicated passion, then you've come to the right place. In the Junge Deutsche Philharmonie, the best students from German-speaking music conservatories come together in an ensemble with the highest artistic standards. In addition to the great symphonic repertoire, contemporary music and historical performance practice are key areas of focus. Highly motivated and excellently prepared, the orchestra goes on tour 3-5 times a year with great soloists and conductors. With FREISPIEL, the orchestra has also been setting accents since 2008 with interdisciplinary, experimental event formats.
The Junge Deutsche Philharmonie is organized on a grassroots democratic basis: its members and their commitment have been the heart and head of the orchestra for more than 50 years: every individual is encouraged to actively participate in program planning, board work, and orchestra management. The passion for music and the experience of making music together is regularly passed on in self-planned music education projects. In addition, project days with various topics such as musician health, dramaturgy, or moderation are an essential part of the working phases for further qualification. Thus, the orchestra's educational mission - an extremely important link between studies and professional life - extends far beyond orchestral playing.
A prerequisite for participation is that you are between 18 and 26 years old and are studying at a German-speaking music conservatory.
