Pilot workshops were conducted in schools, testing interactive components such as the use of color filters and flashlights to visually interpret the music. The feedback from educators and students was incorporated to refine the engagement strategies.
early 2024
The first full-scale Kaleidoscope concerts took place in Germany, introducing a hands-on experience where children influenced concert visuals in real-time. The program focused on Schubert’s Rosamunde Quartett, reinforcing connections between historical music and modern creative expression.
spring 2024
Expansion of Kaleidoscope to additional schools and educational institutions. Further collaborations with arts education organizations and potential partners such as Goethe-Institut were explored. The project gained recognition for its innovative approach to classical music education.
