Travelling with Turandot

Turandot, Giacomo Puccini’s remarkable opera, inspires the new educational performance programme for kindergartens in Attica, Travelling with Turandot. This programme will take children aged between 4 and 6 on a fascinating journey into the world of music and the other arts that make up opera.

Travelling with Turandot, an interactive performance based on the Italian composer’s last opera, will be the basis for a series of activities, including puppet theatre, music and movement exercises, and active listening, through which children will be introduced to the skills of voice as a musical instrument and explore the potential of their own voice. In addition, participants will have the chance to become familiar with the libretto and selected melodies from the opera Turandot, play with rhythmic motifs, and get an up-close introduction to the distinct characteristics of musical instruments such as the double bass, metallophone, and bendir.
