From piano to jazz—concerts in our bar with live music in Berlin

One of the reasons why Orania.Restaurant and the Orania.Bar are so popular among Berliners is certainly our live concerts, curated since 2019 by renowned jazz pianist, university lecturer, and composer Matti Klein. 

After studying at the University of the Arts Berlin, Matti played for many years in the successful funk jazz quartet Mo’ Blow and arranged for pop stars like Herbert Grönemeyer, Sarah Connor, and Jimmy Somerville. As the artistic director, Matti ensures that all artists have a direct connection to Berlin, creating the right mix: from atmospheric bar piano to soul and funk music to captivating jazz concerts. 

Matti is supported by Elisa Bishop. The Berlin transplant studied at the prestigious Liverpool Institute for Performing Arts, Music and Entertainment Management under the patronage of Paul McCartney and has worked internationally as a theater, project, and tour manager in the performing arts for the past 15 years. Elisa takes care of all arrangements with our artists and ensures that all performances run smoothly. For us, it’s a true dream team. And the best part for our guests: Our live music bar is free. This means anyone can simply stop by, sit in the restaurant or at the bar, and enjoy the performance.
