大象传媒 SO PLUS FAMILY is a series of free interactive, family-friendly workshops which introduce the music of the 大象传媒 SO concerts at the Barbican, including a 拢5 ticket offer (plus booking fee*) for the evening concert. Workshops take place 6.00pm-7.00pm in the Fountain Room, before the main evening concert at 7.30pm.
There鈥檚 a Scandinavian flavour to this concert, with the dramatic story of a tree nymph from Finnish composer Sibelius, and the Third Symphony by Danish composer Nielsen. The symphony starts with a waltz, and includes music inspired by Nielsen鈥檚 childhood in the Danish countryside. At the heart of the programme is the Piano Concerto No. 3 by Russian composer Rachmaninov, full of dazzling piano playing and gorgeous tunes.
