APO 4 Kids: Moe's Guide to the Orchestra

Conductor: David Kay

Auckland’s orchestra invites our furry friend from hit children’s TV show The Moe Show for our first APO 4 Kids concert of 2021. Moe returns to the APO to present Britten’s Young Person’s Guide to the Orchestra.

Composed specifically for children, the concert will engage and delight your pre-schoolers. From the big, shiny instruments to the tall, skinny, whistley-ones, to the funny little dances that conductors have to do at the podium! There’s a lot to learn, and even more, fun to be had!

Kicking it all off, kids are encouraged to join a special Show & Tell in the foyer where musicians will be performing and showing off their instruments 45-minutes before the concert. Kids are encouraged to watch, listen, and even have a go at some of the instruments on display!

And don’t forget the walk-through of the orchestra as the musicians play the final pieces of the day.
