The <strong>Berliner</strong> <strong>Philharmoniker</strong> and sony continue<br />

their decades-long partnership – a symbol of the<br />

development of music and media<br />

By ToBias Möller, PhoTograPhy: sony euroPe lTd.<br />

Art and commerce – two things which often don’t mix well.<br />

The interests, goals and sensitivities of artists and businesses<br />

are too diverse. The <strong>Berliner</strong> <strong>Philharmoniker</strong>, however, have<br />

the fortunate knack of finding supporters who have a deep<br />

understanding of their musical work; Deutsche Bank, for<br />

example, which has been a partner of the <strong>Berliner</strong><br />

<strong>Philharmoniker</strong> for over 20 years. At the IFA in Berlin this<br />

summer, a further partnership was sealed and announced:<br />

Sony will support the orchestra in the development and<br />

marketing of its video platform, the Digital Concert Hall.<br />

Thus, a partnership is resumed and continued which not only<br />

goes back decades, but is also a symbol which reflects the<br />

development of music and media.<br />
