A musical family experience full of wonder and children's laughter
The Organ Summer 2026 invites families to the Martinskirche in Kassel for a special organ concert for children. On Tuesday, June 9, 2026, at 10:00 AM, Sergei Prokofiev's famous fairy tale Peter and the Wolf will be performed in an organ arrangement with a narrator. The concert is aimed at children aged 7 and over and lasts for 60 minutes.
Great sound world, child-friendly storytelling
Here, children encounter an instrument that is often only known from the church space, close up and in an understandable way. At the beginning, church musician Eckhard Manz introduces the secrets of the organ. This creates an age-appropriate learning experience that awakens curiosity, strengthens listening skills, and brings music to life.
A family experience with educational value
The combination of music, language, and a well-known story creates an easy access to classical music. Especially for families, this is a nice introduction to shared listening, asking questions, and discovering. The format remains manageable, clearly structured, and child-friendly - ideal for young concertgoers who are collecting their first live experiences.
Practical information for parents
