The Gruffalo and the Snowman in concert at Cheltenham Town Hall
Tuesday 23 December 2024
Now a regular highlight of Christmas in Cheltenham, the Mozart Symphony Orchestra returns to the Town Hall for its annual performance of the timeless classic, The Snowman, for which the film is shown on the big screen with a live symphony orchestra providing the soundtrack. 15-year-old Alice Mackenzie sings the aria made so famous by Aled Jones: ‘Walking in the Air’.
Following the huge success of The Gruffalo (for narrator and orchestra) in London and Cheltenham last Christmas, it makes a welcome return alongside its sequel, The Gruffalo’s Child. Rather like Peter and the Wolf, each character in the tale is represented by a different instrument of the orchestra… what will the Gruffalo be?
This concert is the perfect antidote to panto and a wonderful Christmas treat for all the family.
