State Opera of Hannover
Music & Instrument Workshop
This is a one-hour youth concert for school classes at the Opera House, recommended from age 10. The program is built around Ludwig van Beethoven’s First Symphony rather than an opera or staged drama. The official listing credits Otto Tausk as conductor and the Hanover State Orchestra (Niedersächsisches Staatsorchester Hannover). The artistic approach starts with the symphony’s unexpected opening chord and asks what makes a symphony exciting. The concert frames Beethoven’s revolutionary handling of the form, highlighting decisive passages and offering insights into the composer’s workshop. The event page also credits Kirsten Corbett in connection with the Xchange education program. The Kulturportal description mentions live zooms into the orchestra as part of the format. No separate director, set, costumes, lighting, choreography, or staging concept is listed in the sources.
