The Komische Oper Berlin offers young opera and concert-goers the ideal conditions for a successful introduction to the fascinatingly complex art form that is opera.

Children and young people

The Komische Oper Berlin invite children and their families as well as kindergarten and school groups to come and enjoy some exciting hours in the Great Hall of the Komische Oper Berlin, with the première of the children’s opera The Town Musicians of Bremen by Attila Kadri Şendil and with Snow White and the 77 Dwarves by Elena Kats-Chernin. Children and young people are also more than welcome at all other opera performances, children’s concerts and symphony concerts! Over 40,000 children and young people use this formative cultural offering each year.

Children's Choir

For many years now, the children's choir has been an important part of the opera house's tradition as a musical theatre. The around 100 young singers aged between 6 and 18 enrich the opera house in many different ways, not least through their great variety of cultural backgrounds.

Under the directorship of Dagmar Fiebach, the children are prepared for the varied and highly sophisticated challenges of regular performing in rehearsals taking place several times a week. The musical and acting work is complemented with regular professional voice coaching by experienced singers from Berlin's opera houses.
