You know that feeling, that your talents remain invisible next to the great achievements of others? This is how Fanny Mendelssohn and Nannerl Mozart feel very regularly! They composed music as magnificent as that of their famous brothers, but never received the attention they deserved.

The audience is invited to clap, sing and swing along, making it an unforgettable experience for young and old alike. This is not just another concert; it is a celebration of two brilliant women finally getting the spotlight they deserve.
