AFCM Families' Concert, Presented by Trinity Anglican School

In this playful and interactive concert, classical instruments become storytellers, painting pictures of animals, plants and imaginary landscapes through sound. A fluttering flute might turn into a bird, a cello into a growling bear, or a violin into a silly bull.

Designed especially for families and young listeners, this concert invites children to listen, imagine and discover how music can create whole worlds without a single word being spoken.

A joyful introduction to classical music that sparks curiosity, creativity and wonder - for kids and grown-ups alike.


Tickets start from $10 for children under 15, and $32 for AFCM Friends.


* Excludes bookings fees.
