The Carnival of the Animals

Performance:
2.00PM Friday, 23rd September 2016
Genre:

This autumn our children’s concert will be given by the inspirational young orchestra Orpheus Sinfonia. Under the baton of conductor Thomas Carroll they will present one of Saint-Saёns’ best-known pieces, The Carnival of the Animals, during an interactive performance.

This event is perfect for school-age children who will have the opportunity to get up close to the musicians and the music being performed. Through observation and questions they will learn about the sounds and colours of the orchestra, the different instruments being played, and the musical styles used to depict the fourteen animals featured in this humorous work. And they may even get the chance to take the reins and have a go at conducting!
