The concerts offer an authentically artistic musical experience to the children. The relationship which is created with the musicians is in no way intended to be merely entertainment. Instrumental and vocal pieces from classical, jazz and popular repertoire are performed.
The children can freely express their emotions and their lively curiosity during the concert.
Parents, care givers, teachers and older children will be encouraged to join in singing vocal accompaniment during some of the pieces performed by the musicians.
The musicians are positioned around the public in an open formation interacting with children through musical improvisation which initiates from the spontaneous vocal responses of the children to the music they hear.
