About This Event
Join C91Èȱ¬â€™s Naomi Wilkinson in a thrilling musical adventure for all the family inspired by the 91Èȱ¬â€™s Ten Pieces project, including Copland’s foot-stomping ‘Hoe-Down’ from Rodeo, the dramatic ‘O Fortuna’ from Orff’s Carmina burana, the lyrical Largo from Dvořák’s ‘New World’ Symphony and a selection of colourful portraits from Elgar’s ‘Enigma’ Variations.
Along with the Ten Pieces Children’s Choir, young performers and some very special guests, discover the characters and stories behind some spectacular orchestral pieces and watch the imaginations of a new generation of music-makers take flight.
Broadcast live on Radio 3 and recorded for future broadcast on 91Èȱ¬ Radio 2
