Teaching impulses

A special kind of double-lesson in music: for selected concerts, we offer school classes, music and drama clubs, as well as school choirs and orchestras, an interactive introduction to be held during lessons or club sessions. During these sessions, pupils engage with the content of the respective concert in a hands-on way by becoming musically active themselves, exploring different approaches and talking to musicians. This allows them to experience the concert from a broader perspective.

Spontaneous, lively and full of joy: this is how the Parisian chamber orchestra Le Concert de la Loge can be described. Mozart’s famous ‘A Little Night Music’ is in good hands here: so playful, so exuberant and entirely in the spirit of Amadeus! Julien Chauvin conducts the ensemble from the violin, as was customary in Haydn and Mozart’s day. The educational activity takes pupils on a musical journey back to the late 18th century.

Lucie Horsch has long been regarded as a pop star in the world of the recorder – and far beyond. She has already won over countless new fans for her instrument. Alongside the great masters Vivaldi and Bach, the award-winning young recorder player presents royal wedding music from Sweden in this concert. She loves combining well-known works with rarely performed gems. Lucie Horsch has complete faith in the musicians of the Orchestra of the Eighteenth Century; they work together regularly and create a virtuoso spectacle on stage. In the teaching session, we will explore the concert programme from various perspectives.
