Listen, wonder, discover: Family concert with experiments in Aalen
With LISTEN AND WONDER, families will experience a special morning full of music, light, and child-friendly discoveries at the explorhino Science Center on June 14, 2026. The family concert combines a brass ensemble from the AALEN Festival Orchestra with interactive experiments and is aimed at children aged 6 to 12 years.
Music that creates images in the mind
Lumi and Umbra guide the young guests through a day between morning light and evening calm. The music of Grieg, Mozart, Humperdinck, and Beethoven makes brightness, darkness, vastness, and closeness audible. Thus, a family experience emerges that naturally connects children's laughter, curiosity, and shared time.
From listening to doing it yourself
After the concert, the most exciting part begins for little researchers: The interactive experimentation stations at the explorhino invite them to try things out for themselves. Here, what the music made audible earlier becomes visible. This strengthens perception, concentration, and understanding of scientific contexts in a child-friendly way.
A place that welcomes families
The explorhino Science Center in Aalen is known as a learning and adventure world and offers over 120 experimentation stations. For families, the mix of wonder, movement, and safe discovery is especially important. The venue is located at Beethovenstraße 12 and is accessible by public transport; the Rohrwang parking garage at the roundabout of the university is recommended for parking.
Important information for families
The concert lasts about 60 minutes and is designed for children aged 6 to 12 years. Admission is 10 euros for adults, 6 euros for children and teenagers aged 6 to 17 years, and 24 euros for families with their own children under 18 years.

Conclusion
