Familly concert
Imagine a brightly-lit stage: there appear the Pulcinelli, two clever Italian tricksters, who constantly face new challenges. Something strange is happening today as well. The sun hasn't risen yet. Luckily, the Pulcinelli are quick-witted, and always find a way to get themselves out of any situation. But for that, they need the help of the musicians and the audience…
The music of Igor Stravinsky amazes everyone: cheeky violins, dancing trumpets, and melodies that sound ancient at first and then suddenly take a dramatic turn. A concert full of surprises, joyful play, and music that invites young and old to join in.
