Die Tischlerei - Space for new music theatre and concert
The Tischlerei was formerly a workshop, today it is a space for experiments and installations, for world premieres and play developments. It is the home of our Junge Deutsche Oper, which fills this space with life through children's music theatre, large participatory projects and concerts. And it is the space for our musicians, who invite the audience to extraordinary programmes in chamber and jazz concerts.
Welcome
World premiere on 27 April 2025
Neue Szenen VII

Wagner weltweit
"Wagner Worldwide" is a multi-perspective music theatre production for one singer and a scalable orchestra, in which global networks and personal emotional entanglements with political events come together in one place: the evening news studio. "Wagner Worldwide" brings to the stage how the activities of the internationally active paramilitary Russian mercenary group Wagner are connected to the mythologies staged by Richard Wagner.
World premiere on 16 November 2024

Ab in den Ring!

Artistic direction: tutti d*amore - Berlin collective for contemporary operetta; Conductor: Elda Laro; With Caroline Schnitzer, Ferdinand Keller, Ludwig Obst (tutti d*amore) and members of the ensemble.
Young Opera - Junge Deutsche Oper
Regardless of where you come from, how you define yourself, what you know and what experiences you bring with you: You are welcome here - children, young people, babies, young adults and their companions. We at Junge Deutsche Oper want to give young people access to the world of music theatre and open up a world for you in which there is something for everyone to discover.
IMMMERMEEEHR - world premiere on 16 November 2024
Children write opera
Gordon Kampe and Maria Milisavljević create music theatre for children aged eight and up. The main roles are played by the children's chorus and five child soloists from its ranks, complemented by four adult solos and seven musicians. With this world premiere, we are continuing our successful work on building up a repertoire in the field of music theatre for children and young people. The result is a piece in which, in a professional, contemporary production, children sing and act on stage for children of the same age in the audience in a play whose content was developed in a participatory process together with the director Franziska Seeberg.
Ab in den Ring! - World premiere on 28 February 2025
Wagner fresh on the table
The collective tutti d*amore consists of a director, a mezzo-soprano and two tenors. The name is a nod to the Italian operatic tradition, but in a clichéd way: it is untranslatable, the kind of rubbish Italian that sometimes occurs in the German version of Italo pop. The "Amore", or love of music, takes centre stage and they have agreed on certain goals in their six-year collaboration: Oper*etta for everyone is their motto. And they want it to be colourful, wild and highly professional ... tutti d*amore put their own spin on Oscar Straus' DIE LUSTIGEN NIBELUNGEN - and create an operetta spectacle.
NEW SCENES VII - World premieres on 27 April 2025

Topics
Chamber music in the Tischlerei
Tischlereikonzerte
The selection of works and the dramaturgical conception of the Tischlereikonzerte are in the hands of the musicians of the orchestra. They are inspired by the new productions or revivals of the opera programme to create stimulating themes and unusual programmes that are unparalleled in their musical range in Berlin. From solo violin to songs to percussion ensembles, from Josquin Desprez to Mozart's "Ein musikalischer Spaß", Dvořák's "American String Quartet" to Shostakovich, Cage and Xenakis, everything is heard in the special atmosphere of the Tischlerei.
Chamber Music I - 23 October 2024 | Foyer
The young gaze
Graduates of music academies who have enjoyed outstanding training as soloists are given the opportunity to familiarise themselves with an extraordinarily large opera repertoire at the Orchestra Academy. However, the cultivation of chamber music is also of great importance. That is why one concert in the orchestra's chamber music series is organised by the academy members each season. You can look forward to an individual evening that they organise together with their mentors.
Chamber Music II - 26 November 2024
Emperor, King.... Composer
This chamber concert takes our premiere of Verdi's MACBETH as a thematic opportunity to shed light on power and power relations over the centuries and to look at composing in their field of tension. Experience a journey through time from Bach's "Musical Offering" to Haydn's "Emperor Quartet" and socialist realism.
Chamber Music III - 24 January 2025
In tempore belli
Artistic creation in times of war: This concert features works and presentations by composers who responded to wars and battles with personal trauma or escape into fantastic parallel worlds. Listen to works by Maurice Ravel, Lili Boulanger and Viktor Ullmann, among others.
Chamber Music IV - 12 March 2025
Spotlights
Once again this season, an unusual and personal programme will be created under the title "Spotlights": musicians from the orchestra will play works that are particularly close to their hearts. The programme ranges from world-famous pieces from the chamber music repertoire to genuine rarities that are rarely heard in the concert hall.
Chamber Music V - 10 April 2025
Against forgetfulness
In words, photos and music, the musicians of the orchestra remember Paul Feher, Theo Front, Berthold Goldschmidt and Hilde Reiss, former employees of the opera who were expelled by the National Socialists from 1933 onwards. Margarita Broich reads from personal documents. Works by Joseph Haydn, Berthold Goldschmidt, Béla Bartók and Viktor Ullmann will be performed.
Chamber Music VI - 23 June 2025
In the mirror
This chamber music evening is all about mythological transformation stories in text and music: Richard Strauss' "Metamorphoses", Benjamin Britten's "Narcissus" and works by Karol Szymanowski and Thea Musgrave will be performed.
Jazz, Jazz, Jazz
The Big Band of the Deutsche Oper Berlin and its "little sister", the JazzCombo, have long since established their own tradition at the house. In addition to the established Jazz & Lyrics series and two large concerts on the main stage, the fifth festival will take place in spring.
Jazz & Lyrics I - 9, 10 November 2024
Blue Note Records
Founded by Alfred Lion and Francis Wolff, two German-Jewish emigrants in New York in 1939, the jazz label, which was named after the famous Blue Note of swing, jazz and blues, quickly gained significant importance. This is because the crème de la crème of jazz musicians were all over the recording studios. Experience the greatest hits of "hot jazz" and "boogie-woogie". Speeches between the various songs and standards will introduce you to the players, the era and the musicians.
Jazz & Lyrics II - 12, 13 December 2024
Blame It on the Bossa Nova
They are located somewhere between Adenauer and riots, between staid bourgeoisie and bikini, between sauerbraten and a yearning for Italy: The hits of the 60s. Some of the hits will certainly make you wistful, others will make you smile. Combined with short stories by Elke Heidenreich, the musicians invite you to a nostalgic evening in the Tischlerei.
Jazz & Lyrics III - 15, 16 February 2025
Synaesthesia and jazz
Hearing colours, tasting sounds: This evening focuses on artists whose sensory perceptions function differently to those of most people and who were able to draw enormous creative potential from this. The musicians around Rüdiger Ruppert and Sebastian Krol certainly don't just look at Johann Wolfgang Goethe or Stevie Wonder.
