A Home for Traditional Music in Berlin

Who we are

Zamana Haus is an independent non-profit organization for musical excellence and connection, opening its doors in Berlin in September 2026. Rooted in the belief that every culture carries a distinct sonic memory, we create space for deep encounters with living musical traditions from around the world.

At the heart of Zamana Haus are intensive ensemble programmes where musicians immerse themselves in a tradition, guided by masters of their field. Beyond education, we open our doors to the wider community through open rehearsals, events, and concerts, because we believe music is a cultural right, not a luxury. 

Zamana Haus is a place where traditions are not archived, but activated, shared, and reimagined in the present.

Our values

Excellence in Music

We aspire to bring excellence into everything we do. We work with the best teachers, and we hold our students to the highest standard.

A Space for Real Dialogue

We believe that when different musical traditions meet, something genuine can happen. We are committed to creating a space that is open and safe, where every musician and every listener feels welcomed and respected.

Music That Belongs to the Community

We make music in Berlin, for Berlin. Open rehearsals, live concerts, shared spaces offer an invitation to anyone who wants to listen, discover, and feel at home in music that might be new to them.
