Crash Bang Wallop! Family Concert

From Oct 8-Nov 1, the City of London Sinfonia will be celebrating the 450 years that have passed since Shakespeare's birth with performances of music used in films and plays inspired by the late bard. The orchestra will be closing the series with a fun, family-friendly concert to introduce young children to classical music. Featuring extracts from Mendelssohn’s 'A Midsummer Night’s Dream', Mussorgsky’s 'Night on Bald Mountain', Tchaikovsky’s 'Sleeping Beauty Waltz', Debussy's 'Prelude à l’apres-midi d’un faune' and 'Sorcerer’s Apprentice' by Dukas.

If you arrive early, at 11am, children can also take part in the pre-show activities, which include meeting the musicians, minute maestro conducting, musical arts and crafts, and a percussion zoo.
