This afternoon’s concert includes the creation of the world! The Hallé Children’s Choir join Sir Mark Elder and the Orchestra to perform the World Premiere of Jonathan Dove’s A Brief History of Creation.

Britten’s Young Person’s Guide to the Orchestra is the perfect introduction to the instruments of the orchestra for any age and is sure to entertain with Tom Redmond’s brand new text.

Haydn’s explosive Representation of Chaos was the original musical big bang, and opens his great oratorio The Creation.
