During the Nazi era, German culture was abused, misinterpreted and stripped of many of its non-Aryan elements. This meant that when World War II ended, Berlin lacked a dynamic and multifaceted cultural life. The Berliner Festspiele, founded in 1951, was an answer to this problem. Throughout the year, world-class orchestras, musicians, artists and actors are invited to Berlin to exhibit their talents. Berliner Festspiele hosts lectures, concerts (mostly classical and jazz), theatrical performances and exhibitions at different locations throughout the city.

JazzFest Berlin Nov 5th, 2009 to Nov 8th, 2009
Although jazz is not a particularly "German" phenomenon, the country and Berlin especially, are a haven for jazz lovers. The highlight of Berlin's jazz scene is the annual JazzFest, which attracts some of the biggest names in the business. Over the years, the focus has shifted away from the big American names, but a handful of renowned Americans still perform at the fest. A number of experimental and also world music groups, from Klezmer quintets to acid jazz, have been added to the roster.
