Okapi - Sound nest (2-4y)

Sat, 16 Jan 2027 · 11:00
Cultuurhuis Altena - kapel, Kontich
€8–12
How can you get children excited about art and culture? There are many ways, but we are big fans of how Klankennest approaches it: for OKAPI they were inspired by Flemish polyphony, early baroque music, and the sound, texture, and endless play possibilities of clay. Sound and clay? It is a match made in ‘heavenly hands’. What can you expect? A musical landscape in which unique clay sculptures, designed by artist Gemma Luz Bosch, make sounds. The sculptures are landmarks in a world of natural clay, which is constantly changing through the playful manipulation of performers and audience. Just like the animal it is named after – graceful and playful, familiar and mysterious – OKAPI takes the audience on a journey of discovery along contrasts: old and new music, familiar and innovative instruments, structure and freedom. An invitation to play, listen, and explore. Klankennest offers the performance for 2 age groups (together with their supervisors): babies from 8 to 24 months and toddlers from 2 to 4 years After the 30-minute performance, there is room for free exploration. This performance at 11 a.m. is intended for toddlers from 2 to 4 years old. The performances at 2 p.m. and 4.30 p.m. are intended for babies from 8 to 24 months. You buy a ticket for both your child and the adult supervisor(s).
