TINY BRIDGES
Participants
- Khadim Seck percussion
- Damian Yordanov Kaval
- Nicola Vock double bass
- Sarah Wurmer Zither
- Lisa Bussa

Programme
The musicians of the Bridges Chamber Orchestra learned to make music in very different ways. As an ensemble, they are therefore constantly building bridges between styles and discovering together with their audience what it takes to cross them.
Tiny Bridges brings together beautiful melodies from different corners of the world and gives young audiences the opportunity to experience the music actively — and even to change it themselves from time to time.
For children aged 3–9
A production of the Alte Oper in collaboration with the Bridges Chamber Orchestra

100 JAHRE ROSTROPOVICH
Participants
- Wolfgang Emanuel Schmidt cello
- Kronberg Young Soloists
- Shchedryk Choir
Programme
Commemoration of Mstislav Rostropovich on the occasion of his 100th birthday.
“Kronberg is the world capital of the cello,” Mstislav Rostropovich (1927–2007) once said. He supported the Kronberg Academy from the very beginning. After his death, we maintained an annual “Appointment with Slava” for ten years at the Rostropovich bust in the centre of Kronberg.
Now we will meet him there once again to celebrate his 100th birthday.
The programme will be announced at a later date.
