BEHIND THE CURTAIN (7 – 12 years)

Sharing music with young people

 

Accompanying the Gstaad Menuhin Festival & Academy concerts are hands-on workshops tailored to the programmes. Furthermore, children are encouraged to attend rehearsals and have chats with the artists. Ever wondered how much practice goes into a concert? Curious about the gestures of conducting or the magic behind trumpet sounds? Feel free to ask burning questions and dive into various hands-on experiences.

On the trails of Yehudi Menuhin

Who was Yehudi Menuhin? What does a violin sound like? And why have there been so many concerts in the Saanenland every summer for years?
Together we go in search of clues and solve exciting puzzles.

The Magic of the Clarinet

The children are invited to take a look behind the scenes. We visit a rehearsal and talk to famous artists. What does a musician's everyday life look like? And how many hours a day do they actually need to practice?
*The exact time will be announced at a later date.
