A Journey Through Time With Sound
Event date: 07/18/2026
Location: Musikinstrumenten-Museum, 3 p.m. to 4.30 p.m.
Musical encounters from the Stone Age to the 19th century. For children and families

What did the world sound like many hundreds of years ago? We cannot travel back in time – but through music we can come very close to the past. Together, we’ll immerse ourselves in the soundscapes of bygone eras: from the first simple melodies of the Stone Age, through festive court music, to the cheerful songs sung in market squares and the elegant salon music of the 19th century.
On our journey, we’ll discover which instruments were played back then and when and where music was part of people’s everyday lives. We’d love to hear from you too: what music accompanies you today, and where do you listen to it?
Jörg Joachim Riehle will take you on an exciting journey through time filled with sounds – thrilling, surprising and guaranteed not to be boring!
