Ears Open! brings young music fans close to the orchestra
With Ears Open!, the State Theatre of Kassel invites children from 4 to 6 years old to a loving family experience. In the Opera Foyer, a musical morning begins, sparking curiosity, making children's laughter audible, and allowing music to be experienced playfully.
Close up, in awe, right in the middle
Sitting on cushions, the youngest children move close to the action in the orchestra rehearsal hall. Musicians from the State Orchestra of Kassel, together with a moderator, tell exciting stories that encourage participation. This creates a child-friendly learning experience where hearing, thinking along, and wonder go hand in hand.
Discovering music with all senses
The series gently introduces children to different groups of instruments. For the event on June 16, 2026, brass instruments will be the focus. The event is intentionally kept short and lasts about one hour. This is well-suited for families looking for age-appropriate cultural offerings that combine concentration and joy.
A safe framework for families
The offering takes place indoors at the State Theatre and is clearly aimed at younger children. The Opera Foyer and the orchestra rehearsal hall create a calm environment for shared listening. Accompanying adults receive free admission, allowing families to enjoy the musical morning easily.
What families should know in advance
Admission costs 3 euros per participating child. For the event on June 16, 2026, a start time of 9:30 AM is planned. The venue is the State Theatre of Kassel - Opera Foyer at Friedrichsplatz. The location is centrally located in Kassel and is well connected to the parking lot Theaterplatz nearby.
Conclusion: A small concert moment with a big sound
Ears Open! combines music, movement, and shared experiences into a warm family experience. Those who want to playfully engage children with orchestral sounds will find a heartfelt, child-friendly format with plenty of closeness and musical discovery here. Best experienced live and listened to together.
