An imaginative Concert for Children
In the past years, Philipp Matthias Kaufmann has rushed from one success to the next in Cologne. Ideal for the collaboration between mainstream schools and orchestras, his childrens concert projects have clearly found their fans. The stories read by various narrators are truly exciting, have a special twist, and are often laugh-out-loud funny. The children sing simple, catchy songs that can even be rehearsed without sheet music. And in Kaufmanns relatively small orchestral scorings, he impressively shows that his handwriting is progressively evolving from a classical style to early modernity with bravura, and without ever giving way to flat stylistic imitations. The organizers of the childrens concerts had long been waiting for a concept that is compelling from simply every point of view.
