FAMILY AND SCHOOL CONCERTS

At the school and family concerts, children aged six to 12 can immerse themselves in the wonderful world of music with their companions. Together with various presenters, the RSB presents special compositions from different countries and eras. With interactive elements, fun and excitement, the concerts are entertaining and amusing. Here you can listen, watch, join in and get to know!
After the Sunday family concerts, young music fans have the opportunity to try out selected instruments in the foyer of the Haus des Rundfunks.

FILMMUSIK - cinema for the ears

Music really brings a film to life! Whether contemplative moments, fast-paced chases or sad farewells - the right music completes the scenes. Music is used as a means to drive the plot forward and steer it in a certain direction. What composition techniques are there? What happens when the same music accompanies different images? Together with the orchestra, presenter and music lover Malte Arkona explores selected soundtracks in a humorous and informative way.

Singing Christmas

In dulci jubilo - now sing and be glad! At this concert, the RSB will be supported by the children's choir of the Händel-Gymnasium. The audience is also cordially invited to sing along when Christmas classics are performed: from festive and contemplative to classical and upbeat. You can look forward to a musical Advent Sunday with well-known and new Christmas compositions. In preparation for the concert, selected songs will be made available on the website shortly before the concert. Registered school classes will receive the material by e-mail in advance.

Musical Magic Show

At this concert, the RSB, under the direction of its chief conductor Vladimir Jurowski, presents two of the most important works of music education. In the ‘sounding orchestra guide’ Young person's guide to the orchestra, individual instruments take centre stage one after the other. The idea of introducing young people to the sound of a symphony orchestra is realised in an entertaining and playful way in this composition.

‘The Sorcerer's Apprentice’ is the setting of Goethe's ballad of the same name. This creative orchestral work belongs to the genre of programme music. It is a musical treatment of the story of the sorcerer's apprentice who, without permission, casts a spell on a broom to fetch water to fill a bathtub for the master.

‘A musical journey through sound’ - music from Latin America

This concert illustrates the colourful hustle and bustle of Latin America in a musical way. The music is diverse with a sense of freedom and experimentation, many dances have their origins in these countries. One focus is on rhythm, which is strong and central to the compositions. Together with the orchestra and Colombian conductor Ana Maria Patiňo-Osorio, presenter and music lover Malte Arkona explores the selected compositions in a humorous and informative way.
