Programme

“What? You don’t know that song? Everyone knows it!” – Who hasn’t heard that before?

They exist everywhere: world hits that supposedly everyone knows. Dere Geliyor Dere, Scarborough Fair, Mastom Mastom or Danzi — melodies that linger in your ears for a long time. But when you listen more closely, you may discover that one or another of these world hits is surprisingly unfamiliar.

Six musicians from the Bridges Chamber Orchestra have reinterpreted their favourite pieces for an interactive family concert. Together with the audience, they journey through an impressive playlist of global-local world hits and explore what connects all this music — in other words, what makes music truly super.

On this journey through their playlist, there is not only plenty to listen to, but also moments to join in, sing along, and for some children even to change the music — because, after all, world hits belong to no one and to all of us at the same time!

Recommended age: 6–11 years

Programme

Music is like a body – it needs a heartbeat, a breath; it likes being together with others, and sometimes prefers to be alone. With every melody that sounds, a small bridge can be built to another person.

The musicians of the Bridges Chamber Orchestra have learned to make music in many different ways. As an ensemble, they are constantly building bridges between styles and, together with their audience, exploring 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 from time to time.

For children aged 3–9
