Meet the Orchestra - Peter Seymour Orchestra

19 August 2018 Leichhardt Town Hall, 107 Norton S, Leichhardt, NSW, Australia.

These unique performances are interactive concert series designed to ignite the interest in music and instruments for children ages 2-8. Our conductor and players lead children through each section of the orchestra and give hands on demonstration of how each instrument creates sound. These concerts have been composed with the classical music young children love. From Disney to classic nursery rhymes, audiences of all ages are encouraged

The conductor stands on the podium and raises the baton, then suddenly - whish! - with a gesture the music begins! The flutes flutter sweetly, the violins trill and the trumpets blast bright and loud notes 'buuh buuuh-bu-BUP!'

Meet the Orchestra concerts are a wonderful way to introduce orchestral music to families and young children.

Performed by the SYO's Peter Seymour Orchestra, this relaxed and informal concert has been specially designed to be interactive, informative and most importantly, lots of fun! The SYO conductor, John Ockwell and SYO musicians will help guide children through the different wind instruments and their individual sounds.

Children are encouraged to join in. Stomp your feet to the timpani drum beat, clap your hands to the big, brass tubas, dance gently to the delicate flutes and wiggle along to the clarinet!
