Education
Inspiring & motivating
Muziekgebouw Eindhoven considers cultural education for children and young people to be important. Through various projects, we contribute to the musical development of our youngest visitors. To achieve this, we collaborate with primary schools in the city and with various organisations that specialise in inspiring and motivating children to engage with music themselves.
Unforgettable Class
In 2024, 2025 and 2026, Muziekgebouw Eindhoven will welcome a total of 2,500 primary school pupils from Eindhoven. In partnership with ASML, we are organising a day for these children to be immersed in music through motivating and inspiring workshops and masterclasses. These sessions will be led by professional musicians who are eager to guide young musicians and show them the endless possibilities of music. It will be an unforgettable morning where the children will also have the chance to showcase what they’ve learned to each other!
Drawing for Freedom
What does freedom mean to you? This question is central to the “Drawing for Freedom” event, designed for primary school pupils from Eindhoven’s underprivileged neighbourhoods. The event consists of three parts. First, the children receive a lesson from War Child, where this question is explored. Inspired by the lesson, they create drawings that reflect the theme of freedom. These drawings are then animated and showcased as a film in the Hertog Jan Hall at Muziekgebouw Eindhoven, accompanied by live music! For this project, we collaborate with Liberation040.
Music Unites Eindhoven
Step into the world of live music together with your students and discover the magic of a real orchestra. The world-renowned Metropole Orkest is giving a special concert at Muziekgebouw Eindhoven for primary school pupils in grades 3 to 6 (group 5 to 8). On stage, the Metropole Orkest will be joined by Dutch rapper, songwriter, and producer Joël Domingos as an energetic soloist. Together, they will take the children on a musical journey full of familiar tunes, surprises, and fun. Local high school students (VMBO) from Eindhoven will open the show with a medley of songs they wrote themselves.
