Igor Stravinsky's Le Sacre du Printemps ignites in this brand-new Children's Concert into a total experience in which orchestra, audience, and dance merge. Liora, guardian of the light, plays a magical harp coveted by the four elements: Earth, Water, Fire, and Air. What begins as a whisper of growth and life escalates into an explosive battle: strings crack the earth, woodwinds churn like water, brass flares up into a sea of fire, and percussion unleashes storm winds through the hall.
The audience is drawn into the battle between the elements. Then Liora calls everyone to a collective ritual to reconnect the elements. In a final dance, she gives everything to restore harmony.
Do you dare to surrender to the elements?
A production in collaboration with The Concertgebouw and Oorkaan.
