El Pequeño Mozart

A fun staged concert in which the youngest audience members can interact with the orchestra's musicians and have fun while learning.

El Pequeño Mozart is a staged concert that traces the life of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart and is designed for families and, above all, for children. Maestro Edgar Martín, creator of the Por qué es especial format, plays the young Wolfi to recount anecdotes that shaped the composer's career and to present some of his main pieces.

The works are performed live by a string quintet. Edgar Martín explains some of the compositions in a simple way, with commentary, riddles and games, and younger audience members can interact with the musicians. Some of them may come up on stage to conduct the ensemble, as if they were orchestra conductors.

It is conceived as a first introduction to classical music for children and families. The venue hosting it, the Teatro Lara, is a Madrid space that hosts concerts and shows.
