About the Concert

"Summer, Sun, Vacation Time" - Finally, summer is here! The Philharmonic Children's Choir Dresden, along with members of the Dresden Philharmonic, embark on an exciting journey in search of summer songs from around the world. "The sun laughs from the sky, luring us out into the green field, luring us out to the meadow where colorful flowers bloom". Songs from near and far lands tell fascinating stories and get us in the mood for summer vacation. Old, familiar as well as new and unknown melodies fill the hall and surely invite everyone to sing along - because singing together brings joy and good spirits.
