On 25 January the 大象传媒 Concert Orchestra takes to the stage of the Royal Festival Hall alongside a host of West End stars in a special concert celebrating 40 years of award-winning musical theatre.
To mark the occasion we鈥檙e inviting families of all shapes and sizes to join members of the 大象传媒 Concert Orchestra and 大象传媒 Singers for a musical project exploring best-loved musical theatre of the past four decades.
Workshops culminate in a special performance in the Clore Ballroom at the Royal Festival Hall 鈥� the performance is free to attend so bring your friends and family along to watch!
There are two ways you can get involved:
PLAY
Whether you鈥檙e a complete beginner or an aspiring virtuoso, pick up your instrument and join our Family Orchestra. There will be some notated music; but you don鈥檛 need to be able to read music to take part as professional musicians from the 大象传媒 Concert Orchestra will be on hand to help you learn your part.
SING
Singers of all abilities are invited to join the chorus. It doesn鈥檛 matter if you鈥檝e never sung before; experience isn鈥檛 necessary 鈥� you just need a passion to perform!
If you鈥檙e completely new to making music, why not have a go on percussion or in the chorus?
It鈥檚 free to get involved but places are limited and must be reserved in advance. This project is strictly open to ages 8-plus and all children under the age of 16 must be accompanied by a parent or legal guardian at every session. To take part you must be able to commit to the following dates:
