Abstract
ABSTRACTBechstein-Saal celebrated its opening with a series of brilliant concerts in October 1892, in which renowned musicians including Hans von Bülow, Joseph Joachim, Johannes Brahms, and Anton Rubinstein performed. Despite the chamber music hall’s importance for the new musical metropolis Berlin, as well as many musicians’ careers at that time, it has been largely overlooked in historical music studies, even though its construction brought various conflicts in Berlin’s music scene to the surface. Concert agent Hermann Wolff was influential in Bechstein-Saal’s construction, having both commissioned and owned it, partnering with piano manufacturer Carl Bechstein. Contemporary magazine articles and architectural plans describe the structural and decorative features of this lost concert hall.
