For the 15th time we are opening the doors of the Konzerthaus Berlin for our Christmas "Kinderklassikgala". For Zukunft Konzerthaus it is a special concern to give children from socially deprived areas an insight into the tradition-rich Konzerthaus. In the past years, over 3,500 children have taken part so far. Many feedbacks from the invited educational institutions show that the children come into contact with classical music for the first time ever in the context of the Kinderklassikgala.

This year, we enchant the little guests aged 6 to 12 with the musical theatre piece "beschenkt", an Advent calendar of music, dance and words.

The “Orchestra Box” makes it possible to experience a symphony orchestra in a primary school classroom! 17 Konzerthausorchester musicians take their spots on the box as haptic figures. Thanks to an RFID chip, they play an excerpt from Debussy’s “Children’s Corner” – as individual instrumental parts, in specific groups or together as a group. Funded by the European Union (European Regional Development Fund). Arrangement with the kind support of Zukunft Konzerthaus e.V.

Thanks to the donations of our chair sponsors, we are able to fund at least four one-year scholarships for outstanding talents every year.
