An introduction to music generally and the orchestra in particular by Expo City Dubai\u2019s all-female Firdaus Orchestra via a concert of classically arranged music for children aged 0 to 6 years old and their parents. The programme includes a range of music, with arrangements of classic children’s songs plus popular Disney numbers; it’s described as “an immersive and educational musical journey” in an “interactive musical environment”.<\/p>\n
Monica Woodman, conductor of the Firdaus Orchestra, is quoted as saying: “the significance of classical music in children’s cognitive development cannot be overstated. Classical music ignites creativity and activates areas of the brain not typically stimulated by other music genres … Mini Maestros will offer a truly unique opportunity for children and their parents to interact with live music\u201d.<\/p>\n
It sounds great, though the ticket price (AED 495 for one child and one adult) is surely going to restrict its appeal …<\/p>","excerpt":"","slug":"firdaus-orchestras-mini-maestros","image":false,"all_day":false,"start_date":"2024-01-27 11:00:00","start_date_details":{"year":"2024","month":"01","day":"27","hour":"11","minutes":"00","seconds":"00"},"end_date":"2024-01-27 12:30:00","end_date_details":{"year":"2024","month":"01","day":"27","hour":"12","minutes":"30","seconds":"00"},"utc_start_date":"2024-01-27 07:00:00","utc_start_date_details":{"year":"2024","month":"01","day":"27","hour":"07","minutes":"00","seconds":"00"},"utc_end_date":"2024-01-27 08:30:00","utc_end_date_details":{"year":"2024","month":"01","day":"27","hour":"08","minutes":"30","seconds":"00"},"timezone":"Asia\/Dubai","timezone_abbr":"+04","cost":"AED 495","cost_details":{"currency_symbol":"AED ","currency_code":"","currency_position":"prefix","values":["495"]},"website":"bit.ly\/3Sk31fS","show_map":false,"show_map_link":true,"hide_from_listings":false,"sticky":false,"featured":false,"categories":[{"name":"Family\/kids","slug":"familykids","term_group":0,"term_taxonomy_id":121,"taxonomy":"tribe_events_cat","description":"","parent":0,"count":50,"filter":"raw","id":121,"urls":{"self":"https:\/\/magpie.ae\/staging4\/wp-json\/tribe\/events\/v1\/categories\/121","collection":"https:\/\/magpie.ae\/staging4\/wp-json\/tribe\/events\/v1\/categories"}},{"name":"Music","slug":"music","term_group":0,"term_taxonomy_id":58,"taxonomy":"tribe_events_cat","description":"","parent":0,"count":98,"filter":"raw","id":58,"urls":{"self":"https:\/\/magpie.ae\/staging4\/wp-json\/tribe\/events\/v1\/categories\/58","collection":"https:\/\/magpie.ae\/staging4\/wp-json\/tribe\/events\/v1\/categories"}}],"tags":[],"venue":{"id":49816,"author":"1","status":"publish","date":"2024-01-16 19:35:31","date_utc":"2024-01-16 15:35:31","modified":"2024-01-16 19:35:31","modified_utc":"2024-01-16 15:35:31","url":"https:\/\/magpie.ae\/staging4\/venue\/firdaus-studio\/","venue":"Firdaus Studio","slug":"firdaus-studio","address":"Al Forsan Zone, Expo City Dubai","city":"Dubai","json_ld":{"@type":"Place","name":"Firdaus Studio","description":"","url":"","address":{"@type":"PostalAddress","streetAddress":"Al Forsan Zone, Expo City Dubai","addressLocality":"Dubai"},"telephone":"","sameAs":""},"show_map":true,"show_map_link":true,"global_id":"magpie.ae\/staging4?id=49816","global_id_lineage":["magpie.ae\/staging4?id=49816"]},"organizer":[],"custom_fields":[],"json_ld":{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org","@type":"Event","name":"Firdaus Orchestra\u2019s Mini Maestros","description":"<p>An introduction to music generally and the orchestra in particular by Expo City Dubai\u2019s all-female Firdaus Orchestra via a concert of classically arranged music for children aged 0 to 6 years old and their parents.
