Since the outbreak of the war in Ukraine, the Kyiv Symphony Orchestra has been touring across Europe as a musical ambassador for its country. Founded in 1979, it is today counted among Eastern Europe’s leading orchestras thanks to the passion, expressiveness, and artistic quality of its members. Since 2023, it has been under the patronage of the Berliner Philharmoniker and regularly surprises audiences at the Philharmonie with unusual programmes. Particularly, works by Ukrainian composers offer compelling listening experiences. This season, Christian Blex takes the conductor’s podium with the orchestra.
