Joana Mallwitz, the first woman to become chief conductor of one of Berlin’s major orchestras, has put the music of Kurt Weill at the heart of her first season with the Konzerthausorchester Berlin. Having signed with Deutsche Grammophon in June 2023, she was keen to devote her first DG album to a man whose name is synonymous with the city of Berlin.
The Kurt Weill Album presents three works that the conductor and her
orchestra have also performed live during the 2023-24 season: Symphony
No. 1 “Berliner Symphonie”, Symphony No. 2 “Fantaisie symphonique” and Die Sieben Todsünden (The Seven Deadly Sins). It will be
released digitally and on CD on 2 August 2024.
