They are like brothers, similar and yet quite different: the two differently sized saxophones playing the leading role in this concert. The soprano saxophone is proud of its beautiful high-pitched voice; the baritone saxophone is fond of its impressive bass. Poetically and playfully, the two musicians challenge each other on an arena projected onto the floor and become better acquainted with each other. And sometimes the boundaries become blurred and soprano and baritone become one: »Sopriton« even!
»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.
