Katia & Marielle Labèque and The educational programs of the Berlin Philharmonic Orchestra Zukunft@BPhil, created by Sir Simon Rattle

Treptow Arena in Berlin
This Berlin Philharmonic Orchestra education program with Igor Stravinsky "Les Noces" conducted by Sir Simon Rattle was choreographed and danced by more than 250 children.

Berlin Philharmonie Hall

Katia et Marielle Labèque are world-famous as piano-duo, not only in the field of classical music literature, but also for their innovative music projects for pupils accompanied by video-artists.

Herein lies the starting point of this project.

Two schools have been chosen to create artistic elements such as drawings, and sketches. These will be based on Saint Saens music and the imagined of the animals by the children. Camille Saint Saen’s Carneval of the Animals has become one of the most popular pieces for a children’s audience.

The art-workshops are led by the artist Florian Förster with the assistance of Corinna Gill. The artistic results of the children will be photographed and filmed for documentary purposes by Nina Erfle. Likewise they serve as the basis material for a short video film realized by Jérome Bosc. This film will be projected during the performance of the Carnival of Animals on the 7th of december 2006 by Katia and Marielle Labèque and the musicians of the Berliner Philharmoniker for the children who participated in the project. Parallel to the creation of the film, texts on the different animals written by Céline Morisson will be included in the film and also recited live by the children at the performance.
