MaerzMusik 2025
QuerKlang creates world premieres of collective compositions by pupils at Berlin schools. For the second edition of the pilot project QuerKlang+, in addition to the artistic disciplines of music, theatre and visual arts, the field of dance will now be added to the 21 years of expertise within the programme and the UNESCO model project “QuerKlang – Experimental Composing at Schools”.

The second edition of QuerKlang+ once again starts with a one-week block (in October 2024), in which all the participants – pupils, teachers, artists and student teachers in various disciplines – get to know each other in artistic workshops and form teams. After this, there are weekly meetings that are timetabled as part of the taught curriculum in the participating Berlin schools. A total of ten learning groups from a variety of schools and different age groups are included in the project.
QuerKlang+ offers pupils the opportunity to let their creativity flourish and discover their own artistic abilities. By working together in interdisciplinary teams, they learn to contribute their individual strengths, engage in collective processes and create something new together. Performances of the resulting collective works will be presented as part of MaerzMusik 2025.
