About this event

A Christmas concert for families by a special ensemble of the Japan Philharmonic Orchestra. The first half introduces the instruments and their many sounds; the second half follows Tchaikovsky's The Sleeping Beauty with narration by voice actress Yumi Kakazu. Paper-cut art by Ayano Sagawa is projected on the stage in light and shadow. It seems a good first taste of a live orchestra for children.
