Family Concertini: Music for Woodwind
Be prepared to be blown away by an inspiring concert of woodwind music for the whole family.
Following their sell out concert in January, Chamberhouse Wind are back with an inspiring concert of woodwind music including a performance of Prokofiev's classic tale Peter and the Wolf.
The purpose of each Concertini is to introduce children to different styles of live music and musical instruments, to prepare them for the enjoyment of more formal live music events, to nurture a love of music and to provide an opportunity for parents and carers to listen to live music with their children in a relaxed community setting.

Family Concertini: Music for Brass
A fun, interactive concert for all the family to enjoy.
Chaconne Brass have been entertaining young audiences for over thirty years. Their children’s concert Oh Good Chips for Tea! has been performed to tens of thousands of children at theatres in Britain and abroad including London’s Queen Elizabeth Hall, Cardiff’s St. David’s Hall and the Philharmonie in Berlin. Highlights from the show have also been broadcast on BBC television and radio and it has formed the basis of two lottery funded projects for schools.
Oh Good Chips for Tea! is a highly interactive show, featuring well known classical favourites, such as Rossini’s William Tell Overture and Handel’s Water Music, alongside New Orleans Jazz. It reaches a climax with the performance of Que Pasa involving the whole audience in the re-creation of a Brazilian street carnival.
