From Barmbek to Wilhelmsburg: workshops and concerts in Hamburg’s cultural centres – for children, adults, newcomers and connoisseurs
Music for everyone! Elbphilharmonie workshops and concerts are held in a number of cultural centres all around Hamburg. They are a great opportunity for children and adults, beginners and intermediates, to experience music in a variety of ways and even to make music themselves easily.
Prices are deliberately kept low to ensure that everyone can take part.
Edekabank is an Elbphilharmonie project partner in the city districts
There are also lots of Twinkle Concerts for young music lovers in the cultural centres of the city districts. The lovingly staged productions with first-class artists are targeted at various age groups. As a result, they optimally cater to the needs of the children, gently opening the door for them to the world of music.
Banging and clapping, rattling and drumming: at »BeatObsession« children and young people immerse themselves in the world of rhythms for a week. Under the guidance of professional musicians, the participants can try everything out, producing infectious beats not only on a drumkit, but also using buckets, boxes or other everyday objects. The workshops are also held in many Hamburg arts centres, and for the project's finale the participants all appear together at the Elbphilharmonie.
Please note that only children aged 10+ and teenagers may participate in this workshop.
With support from the Hamburger Volksbank
Freshly cleaned and filled to the brim with instruments, the Sound Mobile is getting ready to head for cultural centres around Hamburg and to inspire curiosity and joy in children all over the city. The emphasis is always on simply giving it a go and enjoying music together.
There is nothing so wonderful as making music together. Everyone can experience that in the Elbphilharmonie’s join-in ensembles: young and old, beginners and intermediates. The Elbphilharmonie boasts six in-house ensembles: one choir, two large orchestras, one creative orchestra and two gamelan ensembles.
They meet every week and, with great energy and enthusiasm, develop their own concert programmes, which are performed in the halls of the Elbphilharmonie and in various Hamburg city districts.

The Elbphilharmonie’s supporting programme offers a variety of different angles on the music performed – either to complement the concert itself, or as an experience in its own right.
As a rule, the Elbphilharmonie+ events are interdisciplinary in nature: exhibitions, talks to accompany a particular concert or events featuring flamenco dancing or scat singing. They take place in the Elbphilharmonie itself in some cases, as well as in museums, libraries and local culture centres.
Elbphilharmonie+ also includes films shown in cooperation with Hamburg cinemas and even culinary events: the programme reflects the many different ways of approaching music.
It's often sounds and melodies more than anything that clear the fog of the subconscious and bring back memories we thought we had lost. Ensemble Resonanz plays for people suffering from dementia, and for their family and carers.
