Megaron – The Athens Concert Hall
Christos Lambrakis Hall

Who said that the animal kingdom’s more likeable representatives couldn’t serve as a source of musical inspiration? Sergei Prokofiev tells the tale of Peter and the Wolf and takes the opportunity to introduce children to the instruments of the orchestra, while Saint-Saens brings his humour to bear on a musical Carnival of the Animals, with a procession of chickens, tortoises, elephants, kangaroos, a gorgeous swan and even... pianists !
