Information
The Sydney Symphony Orchestra Family Events will fire the imagination of the young people in your life through storytelling and vibrant live performance.
What better way to introduce children to the sounds of the orchestra than Saint-Saëns’ beloved Carnival of the Animals?
With plodding double-bass elephants, pecking piano-and-string hens and graceful cello swans, this piece has all the fun and fascination of a trip to the zoo. Alex Turley’s Animalia adds an Australian twist, weaving familiar sounds of our unique wildlife into a magical companion piece.
Recommended for ages 5–12.
