Programme Note

Calling all noisy kids! It's time to plan for fancy dress and fun at St Albans Symphony Orchestra's popular concerts for children, both taking place this year on Sunday 11th October.

By coming along at either 2pm or 3.30pm to St Saviour's Church (Sandpit Lane, St Albans AL1 4DF), children of all ages will be able to experience the large-as-life sounds of a symphony orchestra in full cry.

As usual, there will be a musical adventure story, told by conductor Michael Thorne, accompanied by excerpts from favourite classics and film music. To add to the excitement, children in the audience are invited to meet the musicians during the concert interval and enjoy an opportunity to try out their instruments.

Fancy dress isn't compulsory, but many members of the orchestra will be dressed as their favourite superhero, monster, princess, prince or villain - and we hope that children in the audience will do the same.
