Must we still talk about it? About the role of women in society, at work and in music? Absolutely! Equality between men and women may be the law, but not yet the reality everywhere. There is hardly a better opportunity to talk about it than on International Women's Day. The Bremen Philharmonic dedicates itself to the topic with Konstantia Gourzi, one of today's most distinguished conductors and composers, who will discuss the self-image, importance, and visibility of women in music with director Guido Gärtner and conductor Hansjörg Albrecht.

Many composers, inspired by their pets, wrote their own cat music, including Rossini, Prokofiev, and Offenbach. This concert focuses on a legendary self-made cat from a folktale. In this story, the youngest miller's son gets tricked into inheriting only a cat. With intelligence and solidarity, the cat triumphs over kings and sorcerers, proving that brains are more valuable than rank or power. This season's family concerts feature animals, like an elephant playing double bass and a dancing turtle in Saint-Saëns's "Carnival of the Animals." Other concerts include "The Little Prince" and "Puss in Boots." Let's get started on the musical journey!
