The “Rapauke macht Musik” series has been delighting the RSB’s youngest listeners for years. Each of the one-hour concerts is packed with music, visual stimuli, stories and movement games. Chamber music works from various epochs as well as arrangements for chamber ensembles, often written by members of the RSB themselves, are performed. Knowledge about the instruments to be heard or about important musical terms is not neglected either. And towards the end of each concert, the children build a small rhythm instrument that they can later take home.
The four “Rapauke macht Musik” concerts build on each other and are therefore available as a subscription at 40 € per person. For a Rapauke subscription, choose your fixed concert day with time. (Saturday 2 or 4 pm, Sunday 11 or 3 pm).
