Oorkaan from the Netherlands will perform its award-winning concert for toddlers, "Glimpse", in February next year. The arts group won "Best Music Production of the Year" and "Best Small Ensemble" at the Young Audiences Music Awards 2015.
"Glimpse" is suitable for audiences aged 2 and above. This poetic concert will invite children into a colourful dream-like world, inspiring their wide-open imaginations with live music and rhythms that interact with graphic illustrations. Various patterns will fill the theatre through live projection, while continually changing the background for the performers and the audience. Integrating light and visuals in an extraordinary way, the performance maintains an exemplary balance between the music, the performance's graphic elements and the interaction with the audience.
Founded in 2000 in Amsterdam, Oorkaan is a Netherlands organisation that has dedicated itself exclusively to creating high-quality concerts for audiences from eighteen months to 12 years old.
