There are many journeys in life, both real and imaginary.

Hosted by Izabella Simon, pianist, pedagogue

Mozart’s genius made his life almost inseparably rich in both. Even during his real journeys, his imagination raced at the speed of light, travelling through a wonderful realm of sounds and harmonies.

How all this gave birth to his masterpieces will be revealed in this performance,  and adventurous journey for children.
