We are delighted to announce the world premiere of a new adaptation of The Gruffalo by Julia Donaldson and Axel Scheffler. This magical book has been re-worked into an enchanting piece for narrator and orchestra by Philip Mackenzie. In the manner of Peter and the Wolf, each character in the tale is represented by a different instrument of the orchestra - any guesses what the Gruffalo will be played by? Christmas wouldn't be Christmas without The Snowman and what better way to see this iconic film than with a live symphony orchestra providing the soundtrack and guest soloist, eleven-year-old Alice Mackenzie singing ‘Walking in the Air'? Louis Mander and Mark Webber have teamed up to create a hilarious brand new work based on Kipling's Just So Stories as a way of introducing children to the sounds of an orchestra.Performer Mark Webber (narrator). Performer Alice Mackenzie (soprano). Company Mozart Symphony Orchestra. Conductor Philip Mackenzie.
