Twinkle Concert S / Obotaqua Concerts

This musical performance combines three elements, the oboe, dance and the quanun, to create »Obotaqua«. The quanun (also: kanun) is a type of zither that has been used in Arab music for centuries. The instrument rubs shoulders with the oboe in the Jenisch Haus, and blends with the dance element to produce an imaginative whole.

»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.
