What significance do symphonies have for us personally? For example, the 1st Symphony by Gustav Mahler? It reflects feelings that we all know: deep melancholy, but also optimistic courage. Chief conductor Petr Popelka and presenter Karin Meissl want to discover both with pupils aged between 14 and 18. As always, preparatory workshops are offered for the school concerts.

Registration for the school concert and workshops starts on 16 June 2025.
