Berlin Phil Principal Horn Stefan Dohr • Living the Creative Life

[@MahlerHolic1860]

I met Stefan and had a selfie with him before the Berliners played Mahler 7 at the Proms. I asked him "Maestro Dohr, may I have a selfie with you?". He replied "Of course but I am not a maestro. I am Stefan".

I love this story--thanks for sharing it! He's totally down to earth. -zsolt

@@Living-the-Creative-Life I've been fortunate to meet a few of the Berliner Philharmoniker members and they have all been unfailingly kind and happy to chat. Apart from Stefan, I met Raphael Haeger and Jonathan Kelly. Thank you Zsolt.

One of the greatest horn players of all time. A great gift to peak into his life. Thank you.

[@Living-the-Creative-Life]

And we thank you for watching! So glad you liked it

[@AbKoster]

Very interesting interview. Stefan Dohr plays so many years as solo horn with the Berlin Philharmonic which is probably the most famous orchestra in the world. Always playing on the highest level. He also plays a lot as a soloist. This combination doing both, playing as a soloist and being first horn of such a great orchestra for so many years is very exceptional for a horn player. We hope to hear still a lot from him in future.

En marzo del 2020 me suscribí a la plataforma digital de la Filarmónica de Berlín. A fuerza de frecuentar el canal, los espectadores nos vamos fijando en los individuos que integran la orquesta. El largo y angustiante período de confinamiento en que estuvieron transmitiendo conciertos sin público y en formato de música de cámara, será memorable por sus efectos curativos entre los ciber-nautas. Stefan Dohr es un rostro familiar y, aunque sea de manera virtual, quiero agradecerle a él y a todos sus colegas, el resultado de su duro trabajo para darnos motivaciones poderosas para seguir adelante. Esta conversación nos revela el lado humano de cada individuo que se ha dedicado a la música. ¡Muchas gracias!

[@Living-the-Creative-Life]

And we thank you so much! We are grateful that you liked it.

[@ignazzzzzio]

I just discovered this channel but am totally engrossed! Thank you so much for making these videos! They are particularly insightful for a music lover like me who always wondered what would have happened if I had decided to take the plunge and study music at university...

1st fav hornist? Dennis Brain. All-time fav has to be Stefan! Yeah, I'm a horn fanboy.

[@まっちー-j5j]

日本語字幕はないですか？😭

[@Living-the-Creative-Life]

We are working to add--but we would need help with this! None of our team speaks Japanese unfortunately!

[@juliancardenas4474]

Please! Invite Bastian Schäfer!!!!

[@avisnocturna8942]

That would be great.

[@Living-the-Creative-Life]

Great suggestion--we will keep this in mind! We are generally filming mostly in Europe now--since I'm based in the US this is sometimes complicated, but we will hope to plan ahead! Thanks so much--zsolt

@@Living-the-Creative-Life Bastian is an institution in the 1st violin section of the Berlin Phi, and he is also very classy 😄I met him about 7 years ago in Prague after plating Beethoven 9th. It would be very nice to have him on your show.
