Meeting Mozart

This acclaimed interactive experience for the young has been a major success for Sydney Opera House; it’s a 40-minute show aimed at children aged 2 to 10 (and their families) which blends live music, storytelling, and song to introduce young audiences to the world of classical music “in a fun, participatory, and inclusive environment”; Mozart, his wife and a string quartet help the audience explore the instruments, scores, and themes that characterise his best known compositions.

The show has curriculum connections to Performing Arts, Fine Arts, Social Studies, History & Culture and is reportedly great for Emotional Development. A free teacher’s resource pack provides classroom exercises and curriculum links.

There are performances on 8 and 9 November.
