大象传媒

An inventive and immersive cinematic film with a mission to inspire a generation of children, mixing performance, live action and animation to explore the wonders of classical music, filmed on an epic scale in an aircraft hangar outside Cardiff.

Thomas S酶nderg氓rd conducts the 大象传媒 National Orchestra of Wales in performances of works from the baroque to the contemporary. They are introduced by a host of celebrities including Claudia Winkleman, Blue Peter's Barney Harwood, C大象传媒's Khalil Madovi and singers Laura Mvula and Katy B, aided by playful and magical animation.

The pieces range from Mozart's Horn Concerto and the famed opening of Beethoven's Fifth Symphony to the driving rhythms of John Adams's Short Ride in a Fast Machine. There is also a brand new body percussion piece, Connect It, specially commissioned for the project and performed by youth group Drum Works.

The film is the opening fanfare of the Ten Pieces project - an ambitious 大象传媒 initiate to inspire primary aged children to get creative with classical music.
