Mozart Symphony Orchestra brings festive concert to the Beacon
FOR one day only, the Mozart Symphony Orchestra brings its popular and heartwarming Christmas concert from London's West End to Bristol Beacon.
On December 22, families can enjoy the festive feels of The Mozart Symphony Orchestra's performance of timeless classics The Snowman, The Gruffalo, plus The Gruffalo's Child.
The acclaimed Orchestra will perform the soundtrack to Raymond Briggs' beloved film The Snowman, with the movie simultaneously being shown on the big screen. Also on the programme are Julia Donaldson's The Gruffalo and the Gruffalo's Child, with the famous and much-loved Axel Scheffler illustrations projected behind the orchestra.
First shown on December 26, 1982, The Snowman was an immediate success and was nominated for the Academy Award for Best Animated Short Film, winning a BAFTA TV award. It has since become a staple of Christmas family viewing.
