Program VI · Living on the Edge
A permanent ensemble with eight members spread over every corner of Germany and sometimes beyond means Living on the Edge in a certain sense.

| Georg Friedrich Händel | Music for the Royal Fireworks |
| Sergei Prokofjew | Suite from the ballett Romeo & Julia |
| PAUSE | |
| Modest Mussorgsky | Pictures at an exhibition |
