Kindergarten Concerts
Making the first step easy: alongside countless concerts for the general public, the Elbphilharmonie also offers a concert programme for kindergartens that is tailored to a variety of ages.
Concerts for the Young
In the imaginative music theatre productions for kindergarten groups, there's not only great music to be heard, there's plenty to see as well. The staged concerts tell exciting stories that have the young audience spellbound: stories about mighty mice, mouse-sized people or mysterious drawings. Dim the lights and the adventure can start! Brand-new for the 2019/20 season: two of the productions take place outside of the Elbphilharmonie in two different Hamburg boroughs – and »Murmeli« is the first kindergarten concert on offer for very young children aged 1 and above.
Ages 1-3

Humming, singing, murmuring, whispering – in »Murmeli«, young listeners discover the magic of the human voice: in the morning twilight, on green Alpine meadows, by splashing water and on windy mountaintops.
