This unprecedented new show recasts the classical concert as an immersive experience
Exploring the orchestra as the ultimate embodiment of teamwork, this unprecedented new show recasts the classical concert as an immersive experience.
In The Virtuous Circle, Paraorchestra performs in perfect synchronicity, playing Mozart’s Symphony No.40 on the move and combining with dancers in an array of choreographic formations.
New compositions from Ivor Novello Award-winner Oliver Vibrans abstract the DNA of the symphony, one of Mozart’s most brilliant and beloved works, delicately threading together the four movements.
Upending orchestral conventions and dissolving the barrier between audience and performer, The Virtuous Circle takes place on the floor of The Clore Ballroom rather than on stage.
You are invited to wander among the players as they perform and allow your curiosity to inspire your experience.
This bold new work invites you to the heart of the action, to experience the perfect symbiosis of an orchestra – the ultimate virtuous circle – in breathtaking detail.
There are performances at 4.30pm and 8.30pm
