A Little Lunch Music: Carnival of the Animals

Experience the wonder and whimsy of Saint-Saëns’s Carnival of the Animals in this brand new interpretation. Performed as a piano duet by Tamara-Anna Cislowska and Bernadette Harvey, you’ll be taken on a whirlwind escapade to march with lions, hop with kangaroos, and glide with swans.

With brand new, humourous narration written by celebrated author Hilary Bell and presented by Benita Collings (Play School), this is a fun and lively concert for the young – and the young at heart!
