Music and sport: an inspiring combination. Did you know that Bohuslav Martinů composed a brilliant orchestral football firework "Half-Time" 100 years ago? Or that Arthur Honegger set his favorite sporting discipline to music in his successful piece "Rugby"? There is much to discover!
Legend Beni Thurnheer will host the evening with the sporting pieces of music, which will also involve the young audience. Surprise guests provide additional highlights. Conductor Christian Knüsel is the coach of the wildly storming Neues Orchester Basel. Let's play!
