Mendelssohn and the Moving Machines

Beep beep, all aboard! Are you ready for a musical family adventure with Aurora Orchestra?

Conduct a steam train, lie underneath floating hot air balloons, help a unicorn cross the road and sing with the sailing ships in Aurora Orchestra’s immersive storytelling performance for 0–5-year-olds.

With chamber arrangements of Fanny Mendelssohn’s music by Iain Farrington and an original story by Aurora’s Writer-in-Residence Kate Wakeling, enter a magical world of music, discovery and play with the whole family in Aurora’s summer Far, Far Away show.

Far, Far Away is Aurora Orchestra’s series of storytelling adventures for 0-5-year-olds and their families. Centred around chamber arrangements of one composer’s music, Far, Far Away introduces children to classical music in a fun, playful environment, where the children are part of the performance and interact with the story and music.

For children aged 0-5 and their families. Children under 18 months old do not require a ticket.

This event will last approximately 45 minutes, without an interval.
