  1. Le carnaval des animaux (The Carnival of the Animals) - Camille Saint-Saëns

Saint-Saëns was mortified that Carnival of the Animals became his best-known work, but there is no denying its perennial appeal. In tonight’s performance of this uplifting work, we also hear the humorous accompanying poems written by Ogden Nash and songs chosen to reflect the affectionate satire of each of the Carnival’s movements, including music by Francis Poulenc and Hugo Wolf.

The renowned soprano Elizabeth Watts, recently described by The Times as 'outstanding... ravishing' and 'powerfully expressive', is joined by principal players of Echor, an exciting new chamber orchestra comprising some of the UK's finest instrumentalists and led tonight by violinist Jonathan Stone, and the outstanding young baritone Felix Kemp.

This event is a live and live-streamed event.

For live, in-person events, all our seating is unreserved. This means you are guaranteed a seat in your chosen area, but not a specific seat. In order to allow for social distancing, you will be seated as an individual or as a group, based on the number of tickets you booked for this concert. For groups of more than 10, please phone or email the box office to book your tickets.

Live-streamed performances will be available to watch live in our Digital Concert Hall at the advertised performance time and will be available to watch again and on demand until the end of November. A link to the livestream will be sent to the ticketholder via email in advance of the performance. ‘Hybrid’ tickets are also available, valid for both in person and for the Digital Concert Hall, at an additional £3 to the in-person price.
