This concert on April 18, 2026, at 11 am will feature piano trios by Johannes Brahms (1833–1897) and Dmitri Shost­a­ko­vich (1906–1975). The works open up two different musical worlds: Brahms’ warm, romantic sound language and Shostakovich’s powerful, expres­sive intensity.

Music carries memories of other times—it tells stories of past expe­ri­ences. The distant past echoes in melodies that resonate into the present. Feelings from earlier times inter­weave with the sound of the moment to create reso­nances of time. The interplay of piano, violin, and cello creates a variety of moods, contrasts, and timbres that bring the special depth and exci­te­ment of chamber music to life.

Admission is free for all children and for all members of the Verein zur Förderung der Kinder Insel Hombroich (Asso­cia­tion for the Promotion of Kinder Insel Hombroich).
