A staged children's concert with Dvořák's American String Quartet. For children aged 8 and over.
When war breaks out in Antonia's country, she has to say goodbye to her friend the goose and emigrate. A journey into the unknown begins, taking her via Hamburg Central Station and wild blue Atlantic storms to the land of grooves and freedom. Luckily for her, someone helps her find her way through the foreign jungle.
The tale of Antonia's journey is told without words by the music itself: with the sounds of moo cans, chickens, ship's horns, Vivaldi and Dvořák's »American String Quartet«. The sounds and compositions, specially created for this concert, produce a musical journey for children aged eight and upwards, and their families.
Sometimes funny and playful, sometimes sensitive and thoughtful, the concert opens up the world of music to children in a special way. The Journey to a New World is based on the »American String Quartet« by composer Antonín Dvořák. Completely without words and with artistic projections, the concert location is transformed into an imaginative world.
