Sydney Opera House’s Meeting Mozart Live at Theatre by QE2, Dubai
November 2 @ 12:00 am - November 3 @ 12:00 am
‘Sydney Opera House’s MEETING MOZART is a 45-minute theatre work that instils a love and appreciation of classical music in young children aged 2-10 years old and their families.
Through live music, stories, and song the show takes us on an interactive journey to explore and learn about the instruments, scores and themes that inspired Mozart to compose his greatest works, from variations on ‘Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star’ through to his great orchestral pieces.
The production explores the instruments, scores and themes behind the music and life of one of the worlds most celebrated musicians, through an atmosphere that is fun, participatory, and inclusive.
Watch with delight as the talented Australian pianist, Conor Neylon, assumes the persona of the mischievous musical wunderkind himself, Wolfgang Amadeus, accompanied by his wife, Constanze. Audiences will meet all the instruments in the ensemble along the way and discover some of Mozart’s best-known and beloved classical music.
MEETING MOZART has played two sold out runs at Sydney Opera House, toured to Abu Dhabi International Arts Festival and four times to China and returned to Sydney Opera House in 2019.
This production incorporates a local string-quintet who perform alongside the Australian Performers.
