About
What to expect
The family concert tells “Die magische Harfe”, an Irish story for orchestra and narrator by Patricia Forde, in a German translation by Hans-Christian Oeser; it lasts about 60 minutes and is for ages 6 and up.
It is about Ireland, the kindly god Dagda and his golden harp; under his rule, Ireland had peace and happiness. The story asks whether evil forces threaten this happiness and whether the music can bring harmony back.
