Orchestra of the Age of Enlightenment
OAE TOTS: Mozart Chased a Cat
Bring your clapping hands and stamping feet to enjoy the rhythms and melodies of classical music in this interactive concert.
When a young Mozart visited London, he met a cat. This interactive concert is our imaginings of what adventures they might have had as we journey through Mozart’s Symphony No. 40.
Children between the ages of two and five sit up close to orchestral musicians and take part with their grown-ups – it’s even better than pizza!
Upbeat OAE Tots concerts give families the chance to share the stage with a cast of occasionally weird – and always wonderful – instruments.
