Bach for children – because even children can be fascinated by the music of the great composer! All the more so when little stories from his life are also told. After all, Johann Sebastian Bach (1685–1750) was not only a famous musician, but also the father of a large family and experienced many interesting things.
Community leader Ina Hofstaedter and organist Angelika Tasler present an entertaining mixture of stories an music for young and old alike.

This event is part of the "Organ Marathon Bachfest Munich" series.
