Concerts for Cologne's young music fans! We give families with children the opportunity to experience classical music at an international level up close – completely free of charge and in a relaxed atmosphere! Dancing, laughing, sleeping, playing – everything is allowed! This year, we invite you to a reading hour where Hoffmann's story The Nutcracker and the Mouse King is accompanied by Tchaikovsky's music, and where children have the chance to participate in the performance.
