A Special Commission for Strom at the Berliner Philharmoniker

12.11.2025

On Friday 6 February 2026, Fennesz will present the world premiere of a new work in collaboration with composer and conductor Oscar Jockel. The piece will be performed together with members of the Berliner Philharmoniker, the Karajan Academy and video artist Lillevan as a part of Strom – Festival for Electronic Music.

Strom – Festival for Electronic Music showcases the range of synthetic sound and enables it to interact with the timeless, visionary architecture of the Philharmonie Berlin, the home of the Berliner Philharmoniker. In times of uncertainty about the future of festivals and club closures, which are affecting Berlin’s music scene and causing creative spaces to disappear, Strom is an important commitment to the diversity and innovative power of the city’s music landscape.

For the 2026 festival, curator Stefan Goldmann has once again put together a top-class line-up. As well as Fennesz’s premiere, the festival features a rare live set from Alva Noto and DJ sets by key figures of Berlin’s techno capital, including Ellen Allien and Ben Klock – the latter performing back-to-back with Fadi Mohem.
