Klangfahrt Family Concert

Klangfahrt Familiy Concert

This sound journey takes listeners on a unique musical experience, combining the world of vehicles with music. In the BMW Welt, cars are creatively used as sound sources, featuring a piece for four car horns and solo trumpet, and rims as percussion. It includes a carwash massage, explores common ground between police officers and conductors, and ends by refueling a car with apple juice. A creative, humorous concert for families with children aged 5 and up.

Till Eulenspiegel is a well-known prankster. In his 15-minute work, Richard Strauss has the orchestra musically narrate the tricks he likes to play. In our family concert, moderated by conductor Lorenzo Viotti, we show the sounds Strauss uses to describe the jester and his pranks. We also provide insights into the timbres of the individual instruments in the orchestra, which, alone or in harmony, bring the witty stories to life.

Where is the waltz at home? Exactly, in Vienna. It was there that the North German composer Johannes Brahms was inspired and became an enthusiastic waltz pianist. But wouldn’t »singing waltzes« be even more beautiful, he thought. Of course, and so he composed the entertaining »Liebeslieder-Walzer«. Singing and dancing along is definitely encouraged!

»This is a waltz, a waltz, a waltz by Johannes Brahms!« is the opening line of the concert. And the concert continues with lots of music that makes it impossible to sit still for all the spinning, hide-and-seek and singing along.

The composer Johannes Brahms is on holiday at Lake Starnberg. He takes a room in an inn, hires the rickety piano so that no one else will disturb him with their tinkling, and plays a melody that he can’t get out of his head. He plays it again and again, changes it – and then he’s right in the middle of composing. And there they are: the variations on the beautiful »Chorale St Antoni« – a real catchy tune.
