Freyen Muthes durch die Welt
Children’s programme (for 6-9 year olds) | Production of Jeunesse und Wiener Konzerthaus
In their children’s programme 'Freyen Muthes dutch die Welt', the four musicians of ensemble freymut embark on a crazy musical journey through the metropolises of the Baroque era. Using old travel trunks and umbrellas, they create a colorful stage set with motifs from the cities they explore: London, Paris, Barcelona, and Venice. A playful and exploratory adventure into the music of different countries unfolds, promising a few surprises. Imaginative solos, duets, trios, and quartets challenge the musicians, eliciting a range of characters between comedy and poetry.
Marin Marais' dances resonate through the narrow streets of Paris, and in Venice, Antonio Vivaldi's exhilarating and 'crazy' Follia builds up to a grand finale. ensemble freymut concludes the musical journey with ABBA's hit song, infusing the performance with vibrant energy. A theatrical concert full of poetry and comedy – from Baroque to craziness, everything is allowed!
(Premiere: January 2023 at the Wiener Konzerthaus)
