Eckart von Hirschhausen: Music Makes You Happy! An Evening of Punchlines, Piano, and Cello
Doctor, science journalist, and bestselling author Eckart von Hirschhausen combines humor with purpose, science with zest for life – and asks: How can we live well – with ourselves, with each other, and on this planet? What does a coral reef sound like? And what brings us into resonance?
Together with pianist Christoph Reuter and cellist Tanja Tetzlaff, you’ll experience classical music and cabaret, goosebumps and song, plenty of improvisation and surprising “aha” moments: how music shapes us even before birth, how it makes us happy – and how it can even help save the world a little.
The program for this world premiere has been created especially for Kronberg. It also marks the first joint performance of Eckart von Hirschhausen with the renowned cellist Tanja Tetzlaff – and young soloists from the Kronberg Academy will join them on stage.
A doctor’s appointment for physical, mental, and planetary health. Covered by all insurance plans.
