Das tapfere Schneiderlein

The stage is simple. Chairs are placed on small pedestals with music stands in front of them. The classical concert begins. But before the intro is finished and the fairy tale of the brave little tailor can musically pick up speed, noises mingle with the music and before the presenter knows it, the fairy tale concert turns into a play before her eyes: 

A stranger pretends to be the real little tailor and from then on takes the story in a new direction. After all, the basic assumption that he had killed seven flies in one fell swoop was already wrong. Seven flies in one fell swoop, yes. But the good little tailor certainly didn't kill them, he swallowed them. And so the flies become the little tailor's constant companions and advisors. 

Bass recorders bring giants to life, recorders and jingle bells transform the simple stage into a royal court and the bass clarinet becomes a sonorous wild boar. In this way, the well-known fairy tale becomes a virtuoso musical appeal to rediscover your own gut feeling.
