Song Exchange 2026 »Shining Stars and Rolling Thunder« – concert for primary schools
Concert for elementary schools
The Song Exchange turns 20!
If it were a student, it would have graduated by now. The children taking part in this year’s primary school edition still have a bit more school ahead of them – but in the meantime, singing together in a choir offers them a rich and rewarding musical and social learning experience. And who knows? Perhaps some of them are already on their way to becoming the Rundfunkchor Berlin singers of tomorrow…
Throughout the school year, around 1,500 children – from both primary and secondary schools –prepare for the Song Exchange and for the opportunity to share the stage with the Rundfunkchor Berlin. In the lead-up to the concert, our singers visit school choir rehearsals across the city to inspire the pupils and rehearse the programme with them.
Mark your calendars for 12 June: as every year, Berlin’s primary school pupils and the choirs from our SING! educational programme will take to the stage of the Philharmonie’s Grand Hall. Under the baton of Anne Kohler, Professor of Choral Conducting at Detmold University of Music, they will present a vibrant programme centered around the theme »Shining Stars and Rolling Thunder«.

Philharmonie Berlin
Opened in 1963, the Philharmonie Berlin is one of the icons of modern architecture. Architect Hans Scharoun created a completely new form for the concert hall: the 2,250 seats are arranged in different blocks, terraced like a vineyard, around a five-sided orchestra podium. Beneath the hall is the foyer, whose labyrinthine staircases cause even regular visitors to get lost time and again. The unusual silhouette of the building, whose outer shell is clad in golden aluminium panels, can also be explained by its internal layout. The hall is also considered one of the best in the world in terms of acoustics. It is home to the Berliner Philharmoniker, but is also used by other Berlin orchestras and event organisers.
