"The Little Prince" family concert in Germany 18 November 2025

“The Little Prince” is a fairy tale for the whole family – a story about friendship, love, and real life. We often call that which cannot be explained a fairy tale. The friend and teacher of the Little Prince is the Fox. He helps us believe in ourselves and in our hearts, for only the heart can see what is essential.

This story comes from a writer and courageous pilot: Antoine de Saint-Exupéry. In the family concert “The Little Prince,” we reveal everything that has so far remained unknown in this legendary bestseller – and the surprising connections it shares with Minecraft, LEGO, drumsticks, Bach, and Mozart.

This piece was created by Mike Kaufmann-Portnikow – pianist, composer, multi-instrumentalist, and director – together with his wife and little son. With his magical piano, he travels through different times. To fly, it is enough for him to touch the keys. From all over the world and the universe, the characters of the stories gather, encounters under the starry sky.

One day, during a flight over the Libyan desert, he met Antoine de Saint-Exupéry. Their friendship and conversations became the foundation for the family concert “The Little Prince.”
