Music education is an important task of the ORF Vienna Radio Symphony Orchestra. In workshops, rehearsal visits, in the music laboratory and with our Podcast "Warum Klassik?", we bring the music of our orchestra closer to the youngest, but also to adults. Some highlights of the current season:
We welcome primary school children to "Ferdinand the Bull". After listening to the story of the peace-loving Ferdinand in Alain Ridout's musical tale, the children can try out the instruments of our orchestra.

Last but not least: bassoonist Leonard Eröd and his music education podcast "Warum Klassik", now with 28 episodes for all those who love classical music but perhaps don't know it yet.
