Everyone knows that Berlin is the capital of electronic music. But only few people are aware of the fact that it is also the capital of classical music. The city has three opera houses, two major concert halls and seven big symphony orchestras. Additionally, there are numerous smaller ensembles located here. There are many musicians living here, and Berlin is also home to the two biggest record companies in classical music.
