In the page's words:

The Rundfunk-Sinfonieorchester Berlin has been "on air" and live in the concert hall for more than one hundred years. Founded as one of the oldest symphony orchestras for radio in Europe, its history goes back to the birth of public broadcasting in Germany on October 29, 1923. Since that day, radio pioneers such as Otto Urack, Bruno Seidler-Winkler, Kurt Weill and Paul Hindemith as well as chief conductors such as Eugen Jochum, Sergiu Celibidache, Hermann Abendroth, Rolf Kleinert, Heinz Rögner and Rafael Frühbeck de Burgos have formed an orchestra that has experienced the highs and lows of German history in the 20th century like no other German orchestra.
In the 21st century, Marek Janowski (2001 to 2016) was succeeded in 2017 by Vladimir Jurowski, who is currently shaping the profile of the Rundfunk-Sinfonieorchester Berlin as Chief Conductor and Artistic Director. Under his leadership, the RSB has consolidated its position among the top orchestras in the Berlin orchestra and German radio landscape. Christian Tetzlaff, an internationally outstanding violin soloist, will be artist-in-residence in 2025/2026.
