Inspired by Rudyard Kipling's eponymous collection of stories and poems, Disney's animated film "The Jungle Book" enjoys cult status in this country. Its lovingly drawn characters and popular songs like "Try It with Kindness" — which was even nominated for an Oscar — continue to top the lists of favorite Disney songs.
With a grand symphony orchestra, the jungle now enters the concert hall: While the story of the foundling Mowgli and his four-legged friends is projected onto a cinema screen, swing, jazz, and sonorous symphonic works resonate live on stage. King Louie invites everyone to dance, the elephants shake the jungle, and in the meantime, Mowgli learns from his protectors, the bear Baloo and panther Bagheera, what a big heart and true friendship really mean. A huge delight for the whole family!

Isarphilharmonie
Munich’s most modern concert hall
Since the Isarphilharmonie opened in October 2021, it has quickly gained a reputation for its special atmosphere and excellent sound. The list of orchestras performing here reads like a veritable Who’s Who, headed by the Munich Philharmonic, the Bavarian Radio Symphony Orchestra and the Munich Chamber Orchestra. High profile concert agencies see the auditorium as the perfect place for guest appearances by national and international orchestras and it also hosts jazz productions and large-scale popular music concerts of all genres.
But the Isarphilharmonie also has another string to its bow: it can be blacked out, making it the ideal venue for film screenings – with or without orchestral accompaniment. The auditorium is equipped with a large screen and top-class cinematic sound systems.
Architecture & acoustics
The building that houses the Isarphilharmonie is a steel structure with an internal volume of nearly 60,000 cubic metres. The concert hall itself can accommodate almost 2000 guests and is made from prefabricated solid wood elements. The walls are clad with black-stained softwood panels, while the stage and floors are made from light cedar wood for a striking contrast. The Isarphilharmonie at Gasteig HP8 was built by the general contractor NÜSSLI to the plans of architects gmp – Gerkan, Marg und Partner.
The Isarphilharmonie acoustics were created by Nagata Acoustics International – the team led by star acoustician Yasuhisa Toyota – who were also involved with the construction of the Elbphilharmonie Hamburg and the Philharmonie de Paris.
