Blast Off! Family Concert

For children and their families (Aged 5+)

Blast Off! Family Concert
Blast Off! An interactive concert for primary school age children and their families (age range 5+).

Come along on a journey through the wonderful world of the recorder – in space! Recorder explorer Sarah Jeffery has boosted up her rocket, donned her helmet, and is blasting off into a galaxy of music and sound. And she needs your help! Wormholes and black holes, mysterious aliens, even time travel – anything can happen. But it’s all possible, thanks to the power of music!

Featuring music from the 14th century to… the future.

Bring your recorder along to join in. All young astronauts will be given a free descant recorder!
