Musical adventures

Family concerts are not just concerts – they are journeys of exploration into the vast world of music. The experienced adventurers of the Sinfonieorchester Basel treat their audiences to beautiful sounds, and help them to unearth music's buried treasure. Young and old alike then head for home enriched by a surfeit of stories, melodies and harmonies.

What do lions and swans actually sound like? And what noises do dinosaurs make? Musicians from the Basel Symphony Orchestra embark on a musical search for clues in the animal world with the Carnival of the Animals by Camille Saint-Saëns and Jurassic Trip by Guillaume Connesson. The imaginative story is illustrated live with sand animations by Cedric Cassimo.

Recommended for children between 7 and 12 years.
