About
Step into a magical world where music and art come alive!
Renowned author and animator James Mayhew brings his illustrations to life right before your eyes, while our talented students perform beloved orchestral favourites. Wrangle with the magic broom in the Sorcerer’s Apprentice or soar to new heights in Stravinsky’s Firebird Suite, all inspired by James’ critically acclaimed children’s book Once Upon A Tune and the eagerly anticipated A Symphony of Stories.
Whether you’re young or simply young at heart, this extraordinary promises to delight and inspire, whisking audiences away to distant lands and magical realms.
Our Young Explorers concerts are the perfect way to introduce children to live orchestral music and are specially designed to keep everyone engaged and entertained.
