Invite the youngest listeners into a gentle baroque soundscape designed for babies and toddlers. Four voices from a chamber choir sing short baroque pieces accompanied by metallophones and small resonant instruments, while a forest-like set evokes soft, mysterious creatures. Families sit together around the musicians for an intimate, close experience. After the performance, children can explore textures and sounds up close with the artists in a calm, sensory play session.
