„The Young Person’s Guide to the Orchestra“
... is the orchestral introductory piece par excellence. For this 20-minute work, in which the entire sound and expressive palette of the orchestra is fanned out in a series of variations for the various orchestral groups, Britten drew on a "catchy tune" by Henry Purcell. For conductor Dominic Limburg, one of the tasks of any orchestra is to develop formats for children and young people. Limburg and the musicians are supported by Malte Arkona, who is passionate about conveying classical music to children and young people in a humorous, unconventional and knowledgeable way. World premiere 3 March 2023

What are you passionate about and what are you prepared to put up with? The pupils of our TUSCH partner school Peter-Ustinov-Schule in Charlottenburg not only asked themselves these questions, but also the staff of the Deutsche Oper Berlin. During a project week in January 2021, they developed their own artistic project under the direction of theatre pedagogue Elly Jarvis and video artist Kalma. They showed the results of this digital project week at the TUSCH Festival in March.TUKI - Theatre and Daycare
Normally, stage director Franziska Seeberg and theatre pedagogue Lisa Schwabe go to our TUKI partner day care centre Kastanienallee Westend every week, and explore music, theatre and the everyday space of the day care centre with the children there. During these special times, the work takes place primarily at a distance - and in the living room of the families! The TUKI artists have come up with numerous play ideas, videos and theatre experiments that invite you to try them out.A partner for teachers
Which teaching formats do you need in your lessons? How can you integrate music theatre as aesthetic and pedagogical creative principles into everyday school life? And how can we initiate artistic encounters and bring music theatre into the school in times of homeschooling, split classes and closed theatres? We develop a tailor-made programme for you and your class.Topics

Expedition Tirili
For the " Mobile musical theatre" we travel with light luggage, without elaborate stage design, because we play locally, in the kindergartens. Children are a great audience: open, curious, enthusiastic. They miss neither curtain nor orchestra and have no firm idea of how an audience should behave.
