Description

Family Concerts with the “Allegro Vivace” Instrumental Ensemble.

We invite all our young friends to the musical journey into the fantasy world of Alice, where they will experience exciting adventures with her. “Alice in Wonderland”, one of the most favourite fairy tales in the world for both children and adults, was written in the middle of the 19th c. by English author Lewis Carol. The novel describes with subtle imagination and childlike spontaneity the adventures of a girl named Alice. After falling into a rabbit hole, Alice wanders into a fantasy world where she experiences many wondrous and often bizarre adventures. In the performance with the “Allegro Vivace” Orchestra, the narration of the story is accompanied by melodies from various Disney movies as well as free adaptations of excerpts from works by renowned composers (Haydn, Beethoven, Schubert, Tchaikovsky, Prokofiev, a.o.), to stimulate the creative imagination of children and grownups alike in the most exciting and tasteful manner. It is addressed to “children” from 6 to 96 years old!!

Narrator: Petros Georgadjis
Conductors: Alkis Baltas and Yiannis Hadjiloizou
