	Berlin State Opera - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Berlin State Opera (in German: Staatsoper Unter den Linden) is a prominent German opera company.
		This event marked the beginning of the successful, 250 year old cooperation between the Staatsoper and the Staatskapelle Berlin, the state orchestra, whose roots trace back to the 16th century.
		After the Berlin Wall was built in 1961, the Opera was somewhat isolated, but still maintained a comprehensive repertoire that featured the classic and romantic period together with contemporary ballet and operas.

		In 1996 the Staatskapelle Berlin and the Staatsoper were invited to perform at the Théâtre du Châtelet again, and the Staatskapelle Berlin played a concert in Wiesbaden at the Rheingau Music Festival conducted by Carlo Maria Giulini.
		In September 1997 the Staatskapelle Berlin toured with Daniel Barenboim through several European countries followed by a tour to Japan in November 1997, where the Staatskapelle performed a cycle of all Beethoven symphonies and piano concertos (with Daniel Barenboim as conductor and soloist) in addition to several opera performances of the Staatsoper.
		Berlin enjoyed an exciting span of operatic innovation during the 1920s; another important aspect of the house's activities is the presentation of works of the "classical modern" period.

	Wilhelm Furtwängler - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Furtwängler was born in Berlin into a prominent family.
		He subsequently held posts at Munich, Lübeck, Mannheim, Frankfurt, and Vienna, before securing a job at the Berlin Staatskapelle in 1920, and, in 1922, at the Leipzig Gewandhaus Orchestra (where he succeeded Arthur Nikisch) and concurrently at the prestigious Berlin Philharmonic Orchestra.
		There is every possibility that Furtwängler would have accepted the post, but a report from the Berlin branch of the Associated Press, possibly ordered by Hermann Göring, said that he was willing to take up his post at the Berlin Opera once more.

	World Cup 2006 Germany City Guide :: Berlin
		Berlin was restored as the German capital in 1990 after what was an often traumatic 45-year break.
		During the 1920s Berlin was Europe’s artistic and intellectual pioneering city, attracting the world’s greatest minds and talents.
		The closest Berlin gets to having a center is in twin form: to the west where Kurfürstendamm (‘Ku’damm’) meets the Zoologischer Garten (‘Zoo’) railway station; and Mitte further east, between Unter den Linden and Alexanderplatz ('Alex') railway stations.

		Resident orchestra of Berlin's Staatsoper Unter den Linden (in the former East Berlin) it is now touring the U.S. under its chief conductor, Daniel Barenboim.
		Barenboim first heard the Staatskapelle around 1989, when the Berlin Wall fell, and compared its sound and performance style to that of the Israel Philharmonic of his 1950s boyhood.
		In addition to the dark, hooded wind tones, the strings add their own striking characteristic, which he compares to "the soft landing of an airplane." Many string players in other orchestras lend excitement to their tone by holding their bows at some distance from the strings and bringing them down with considerable vehemence.

	Brahms: The Symphonies, Staatskapelle Berlin, Daniel Barenboim, RFH, 16th-17th January 2003 (MB) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
		Daniel Barenboim’s two concerts of the complete Brahms symphonies with the Staatskapelle Berlin merely proved the case that no one conductor seems able to penetrate to the heart of these works.
		In the first concert a slap-dash performance of Brahms’ Second Symphony was followed by an inspired account of Brahms’ Fourth, and in the second concert a plain dull performance of the Third was followed by an incandescent account of the First.
		The Staatskapelle Berlin is clearly an orchestra of outstanding pedigree, with a depth of sound so utterly Germanic to make the Berlin Philharmonic sound rather bland beside them, and Barenboim is clearly a gifted Brahmsian when it suits him.

		The renewal of Daniel Barenboim's contract as musical director at the Berlin STate Opera (which expires in 2002) is still in the balance.
		According to Berlin's Senator of Culture Christoph Stoelzl (independent), the final decision will be made as part of the budget negotiations for the year 2001, which are due in July.
		Stoelzl told the Cultural Committee of the Berlin Senate that parliament had the final say: "Only they can decide whether Barenboim's demands can be met or not." Barenboim demands an increase of the budget for his orchestra, the Staatskapelle Berlin, by 4 million marks and another 6 million for the opera house.

	Barenboim's Berlin orchestra electrifies with works of Schumann
		But Daniel Barenboim's plan for Chicago appearances by his Staatskapelle Berlin last week -- presenting all four Schumann symphonies along with the piano, cello and violin concertos plus a few miscellaneous works over four concerts -- carried the promise of too much of a not uniformly great thing.
		All that mattered for the audience was thanking Barenboim and his splendid Staatskapelle players for a revelatory performance of Schumann's stirring Symphony No. 4, one that will not soon be forgotten.
		As with the CSO, the communication between Barenboim and his Berlin musicians seems to be as much mental telepathy as overt physical direction.

	Guardian Unlimited \| Arts critics \| Berlin Staatskapelle/Barenboim
		Daniel Barenboim and the Berlin Staatskapelle are in the UK performing two complete Brahms cycles - one in London, one in Birmingham - over four consecutive nights.
		Speeds, particularly in the first movement, were wayward and swerving, often leaving the impression of the symphony being forced along in fits and starts rather than evolving as an organic whole.
		The astringent Staatskapelle sound - often more telling than the plushness of the rival Berlin Philharmonic - is appealing in Brahms, though the playing took a while to settle.

		Beaten by Simon Rattle to the helm of the Berlin Philharmonic, Daniel Barenboim is evidently determined to show that his Staatskapelle Berlin can give its great rivals a good run for their civic subsidy.
		The brass had its dodgy moments but he has coaxed and cajoled the Staatskapelle's woodwind and strings into a mean machine as alert and stylish as any around.
		Diminutive but magisterial, conducting without a score, he brought a dynamic energy to the fourth symphony's unique scherzo and a blazing passion to its climactic, austere passacaglia.
