What better way to introduce children to the sounds of the orchestra than Saint-Saëns’ beloved Carnival of the Animals?
With plodding double-bass elephants, pecking piano-and-string hens and graceful cello swans, this piece has all the fun and fascination of a trip to the zoo. Alex Turley’s Animalia adds an Australian twist, weaving familiar sounds of our unique wildlife into a magical companion piece.
The Sydney Symphony Orchestra are pleased to offer the 12:30pm performance as a relaxed performance of this program, designed for audiences with autism or sensory sensitivities. With a smaller audience and adjusted lighting it is perfect for anyone who would enjoy a more relaxed performance environment.

Conductor: Benjamin Northey
