McOpera Ensemble with children and young instrumentalists from across East Dunbartonshire
Hindemith: Let’s Build a Town (Wir Bauen eine Stadt)
With chamber music by Mozart, Strauss and Hindemith
The musicians of McOpera return for another exciting event performing alongside some of our most talented young people. This time our performers - singers, dancers and instrumentalists - join to present Paul Hindemith’s delightful 1930 mini-opera Let’s Build a Town. It was a pioneering work in children’s opera and Hindemith was present at the UK premiere in Glasgow just a few months after the Berlin world premiere. The programme also includes a colourful selection of chamber music, including a new commission for Milngavie Music Club.
