Anyone who doesn't know him absolutely must get to know him now: Emil, the brave detective who, with his new friends, pursues a vicious thief in Berlin. For almost 100 years, Erich Kästner's classic children's book "Emil and the Detectives" has delighted young and old alike, and even today, in Kästner's anniversary year, its fascination continues. At the opening of the family concert series, it can now be experienced in a whole new way: the Göttingen Literature Autumn and the GSO have jointly conceived a musical reading that presents Emil Tischbein, Pony Hütchen, and Gustav with the horn in a completely new light. The Göttingen Symphony Orchestra, conducted by Jason Weaver, will provide the musical accompaniment to the story, and actor Richy Müller will read from the book.

Emil and the Detectives

Ballroom “Zum fidelen Anreischken” Duderstadt

Stadthalle Northeim

Osterode am Harz town hall

Helau and hurray! Confetti, streamers and costumes - all of this is part of a successful carnival party. And of course, rousing music. The Hamburg Symphony Orchestra celebrates a party full of gripping rhythms and fantastically beautiful melodies with presenter Singa Gätgens. Our wild carnival concert naturally begins with a real classic: the overture from the operetta "Die Fledermaus" by Johann Strauss. The piece takes place at a masked ball and is full of funny misunderstandings and mix-ups. Wigs, make-up and weird clothes are also expressly welcome in the audience at this concert.
