During this concert, viewers will be able to sing, dance, laugh, and at the same time learn about the difference between a violin and a double bass, why the viola sounds so beautiful and why the cello imitates the mooing of a cow so well. The popular string quartet invites all children from five to one hundred and five years of age to a concert full of beautiful music and a lot of humor.
