Fanny & Nannerl
Take Over!

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. That is about to change - in the scintillating concert Fanny & Nannerl Take Over! the Residentie Orkest brings their music to life.
In this compelling performance, image and sound merge, and you will discover how powerful the compositions of the female Mozart and Mendelssohn are. Together with actors and live video footage, Nannerl and Fanny immerse you in rousing rhythms, brilliant melodies and surprising stories. 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. Come and experience this special Take Over, where music history is given a new voice!
