Sir Simon Rattle conducts Brahms and Wagner – With Lisa Batiashvili and Truls Mørk

Every First of May, the Berliner Philharmoniker honors its founding with the Europakonzert. Marking their 125th anniversary, the year 2007 was particularly festive: under the baton of Sir Simon Rattle, the orchestra celebrated with a concert themed "The Year 1882" at Berlin's Oberspree Power and Cable Plant (Kraftwerk und Kabelwerk Oberspree)—one of the city's most impressive historical industrial constructions of the 19th century.
