Tonhain Kollektiv Berlin: »Roots of Tonhain«

• Classical Music

The Tonhain hall in Berlin-Steglitz was built in 1911/12 by the architects P. Berthild and W. Baumgarten and originally housed a cinema. When the Tonhain offered itself as a home for the collective in 2022, the idea was born to programme the historical legacy of the Tonhain in works that either influenced film music or were influenced by it. We are all familiar with these soundscapes, as the music and film industries have been closely intertwined since the 20th century. The varied programme, which begins with John Corigliano’s »The Red Violin Caprices« and ends with Korngold’s lavishly scored piano quintet, blurs the boundary between film music and concert music.
