Concert-éveil « Le Carnaval des animaux »

This interactive concert introduces young children to classical music through Camille Saint-Saëns' "Le Carnaval des animaux." Each instrument represents an animal—lions roar, elephants lumber, kangaroos leap, and swans glide—creating a playful musical menagerie. Designed for ages 4 and up, the 45-minute performance includes explanations, games, and sound experiences to engage little listeners.

The Orchestre Colonne performs under the direction of Anastasia Rizikov, with pianists Alice Power and Victor Demarquette, and cellist Florestan Gernovesi. The concert takes place at La Seine Musicale on Île Seguin in Boulogne-Billancourt, offering a lively first encounter with orchestral music.
