About
A live concert of Saint-Saëns's Carnival of the Animals, the suite where each short piece paints a creature in sound: a lumbering elephant, a gliding swan, hopping kangaroos, rattling fossils. It invites kids to become musical explorers, listening for the animal hidden in each piece. It suits kids who can sit through a full classical concert, and makes a gentle first one for families new to them.
Where it is
Centro Cultural Zazuar
Calle de Zazuar, 4, 28031 Madrid
