Twinkle Concert L / Zirpen

In »Zirpen«, the audience delves into the world of insects with tropical music. Cuban woodwind ensemble Aires Tropicales explores the flying and crawling world of the little beasties that are so important for the synergy on our planet. But the musicians must find that the tones and sounds of the insect world have become significantly quieter, not just in tropical forests. With their music, they breathe new life into the fascinating and endangered little creatures again.
»Twinkle Concerts« is the series of children’s concerts at the Elbphilharmonie that brings the most successful productions from all over Europe to Hamburg. At times funny and playful, at others thoughtful and reflective, the series introduces children to the world of music in a special and unique way.
