Super Music

“What? You don’t know that song? Everyone knows it!” – Who hasn’t heard that before?

They are everywhere: world hits that supposedly everyone knows. Dere Geliyor Dere, Scarborough Fair, Mastom Mastom or Danzi – melodies that stay in your ears forever. On closer listening, however, you notice that one or two of these world hits are surprisingly unfamiliar.

Six musicians from Bridges Kammerorchester have reinterpreted their favourite pieces for an interactive family concert. Together with the audience, they explore an impressive playlist of globally rooted world hits and discover what connects all this music – what makes it special. On this journey through their playlist, there is not only a lot to hear, but also moments to join in, sing along and, in some parts, children can even change the music – after all, world hits belong to no one and to everyone at the same time.
