They will once again join forces with the magnificent Royal Scottish National Orchestra, the RSNO Children’s Chorus and the Manor School of Ballet, to bring audiences ‘Fright at the Museum’.
This year CCC’s presenter and percussionist, Owen Gunnell, will find himself locked in the museum...on Halloween! Who knows who (or what!) he’ll encounter in those frightful hallways when night comes. Will the extinct animals come out to dance in the moonlight? Or perhaps Owen will manage to turn some dinosaur bones into drumsticks and make magnificent music with those mummies! This expertly curated creepy concert is the ideal entertainment for children and their families, and is the perfect introduction to orchestral music.
The concert will include popular classics by Shostakovich, Mussorgsky, Tchaikovsky and John Williams, and more. These will be performed alongside lesser-known works, such as Gabriella Ortiz’s Antropolis, which will be the soundtrack to animations of children's artwork that has been transformed into animations by the University of the West of Scotland’s Computer Animation students. Also included in ‘Fright at the Museum’ will be the premiere performance of Paul Campbell’s Carnival of the Extinct Animals – a specially-commissioned work.
Special Offer! CCC are offering a 10% discount when you book 'Fright at the Museum' and their Christmas concert, 'Christmas Wishes', (6th/7th December) together.
