Details
In 1972, a radio production of Julius Klengel's Hymnus for 12 Cellos performed by members of the Berlin Philharmonic led to the foundation of this ensemble of soloists, whose virtuoso sound has won over audiences all over the world.
We will celebrate the 50th anniversary of the formation of the ensemble with a very special gala that will mix different musical genres with the unique sound of a dozen cellos.
