Presented in partnership with the NAC’s BIG BANG Festival.
Magic, music, and wonder abound as two wanderers discover beauty in unexpected places.
Prepare for a heartwarming symphonic adventure where magic, music, and imagination shine bright! Join the NAC Orchestra and the internationally acclaimed Platypus Theatre for Music Under a Midnight Moon, a whimsical journey that reveals the beauty of sound in the most unexpected places.
As twilight falls, two weary wanderers stumble upon a forgotten junkyard. But what seems like a pile of discarded odds and ends soon transforms into a world of possibility. With a pluck, a tap, and a shake, everyday objects awaken with music! From the hum of bottles to the rhythm of pots and pans, even a simple saw becomes a duet partner for a cello. Under the glow of a midnight moon, the night air fills with melodies, proving that you can find music everywhere if you only listen.
Originally commissioned by Canada’s National Arts Centre Orchestra for school audiences, Music Under a Midnight Moon (also known as Rhythm in Your Rubbish) has delighted families around the world. Now it’s your turn to experience the joy of music in the most magical of places.
We hope you will enjoy the giant images on the NACOtron screen as they capture and magnify the magic of these fabulous concerts!
