Children’s Classic Concerts
Children’s Classic Concerts is delighted to announce their upcoming Halloween concert: ‘Myths & Monsters’, which will take place in Glasgow and Edinburgh this month.
Once again joining forces with the legendary Royal Scottish National Orchestra, this promises to be a fun-filled performance for the whole family.
This year, CCC's Owen is being challenged with the task of defeating the wicked knight who is trying to take over the concert halls – and stop the music!
You can expect dragon-training exploits, sword-salvaging and jester antics, all accompanied by orchestral works such as the medieval ‘Pastime with Good Company’, Kabalevsy’s 'Galop', and popular theme music from How To Train Your Dragon and Brave.
There’s an even more mythical delight in store: the full-blown symphony orchestra version of CCC’s specially commissioned piece ‘Jabberwocky’ set to the popular Lewis Carroll poem. This hour-long concert is jam-packed with music and action; perfect for children aged 4-12, but will also keep the adults entertained!
“We at CCC really seize the opportunity to present a huge range of music in our concerts: we’ve included Renaissance music alongside contemporary pieces in ‘Myths & Monsters’. Creative programming is what makes us really stand out. It’s such an honour to work with an orchestra like the RSNO who always commit to the full CCC experience!” - Owen Gunnell (CCC’s Artistic Director and Presenter).
CCC is delighted to offer BSL Interpretation and Audio Description for this performance. If you'd like more details, please email ccc@childrensclassicconcerts.co.uk.

Saturday 28th October 2023 | Glasgow Royal Concert Hall
Sunday 29th October 2023 | Usher Hall, Edinburgh

Why are you making commenting on The Herald only available to subscribers?
It should have been a safe space for informed debate, somewhere for readers to discuss issues around the biggest stories of the day, but all too often the below the line comments on most websites have become bogged down by off-topic discussions and abuse.
heraldscotland.com is tackling this problem by allowing only subscribers to comment.
We are doing this to improve the experience for our loyal readers and we believe it will reduce the ability of trolls and troublemakers, who occasionally find their way onto our site, to abuse our journalists and readers. We also hope it will help the comments section fulfil its promise as a part of Scotland's conversation with itself.
We are lucky at The Herald. We are read by an informed, educated readership who can add their knowledge and insights to our stories.
That is invaluable.
We are making the subscriber-only change to support our valued readers, who tell us they don't want the site cluttered up with irrelevant comments, untruths and abuse.
In the past, the journalist’s job was to collect and distribute information to the audience. Technology means that readers can shape a discussion. We look forward to hearing from you on heraldscotland.com
