Angebote für Klasse 5-13
Music fascinates, it awakens feelings and is listened to with pleasure. But it can do much more: as an important part of school education, music can strengthen concentration, social responsibility, self-confidence and group spirit. What would lessons be without the live experience of music? The school concerts awaken the enthusiasm and passion with which the Gürzenich Orchestra also performs every concert. For a comprehensive pre- and post-concert preparation, teaching materials, workshops for teachers as well as school visits and meet & greets are offered. The »443 Hertz« programme and the rehearsal visits offer the opportunity to get to know the musicians at close quarters, to become musically active in an exchange with them and to feel the power of music directly.
Am schönsten fand ich in der Philharmonie, dass ich ganz viele Instrumente gesehen habe und dass ich direkt neben einer Pauke saß - ich habe sie gespürt, sie war echt stark!
Lena, 13 JahreSchool Concert
Wish listChristmas is the time when wishes come true - and this is also the case in this »wish list concert« for grades 3-6 conducted by Gürzenich conductor François-Xavier Roth. The pupils decide what is on the programme, and it goes like this: The school classes choose their favourites from a list of song-suggestions and send their choice to ohrenauf@guerzenich-orchester.de by 22.10.2022. Three of the pieces that were requested most often will be performed in the concert.
All entries will be entered into a draw for visits to the schools by vocal coaches. They will study the songs together with the pupils, which will then be sung in the concert.

»443 Hertz«
Mitmach-Konzerte in der SchuleDesigning your own concert programme, standing on stage yourself and making music or moderating? As part of the series »443 Hertz«, students can do all that – in direct collaboration with the professionals of the Gürzenich Orchestra. The centrepiece of this project is the practical exploration of music. Accompanied by an educator, chamber ensembles of the Gürzenich Orchestra work with one class in weekly workshops to prepare a concert for the entire school. Including various art forms, the students get to know selected works, developing their very personal approach to music. This leads to an individual concert programme which is performed together with the musicians. Workshops and the concert take place at the school.

Q&A
to the Symphony concertExperiencing an orchestra in concert and listening to the music is impressive. But who are the artists on stage and what do they do when they are not playing a concert? Upper school students have the opportunity to ask these and other questions before attending a concert. Orchestral musicians, soloists, conductors and composers visit the school and talk directly to the young audience about everything they want to know about the orchestra and the concert.
