Greenilda battles the Litterbugs at the Halloween Family Concert at the CCP

October 30, 2011 4:00 PM

Tanghalang Nicanor Abelardo (CCP Main Theater)

CCP Complex

Pasay, Metro Manila

Featuring:

Metro Manila Concert Orchestra

Josefino “Chino” Toledo, conductor

Children may not be able to fully appreciate the subscription series concerts by the Philippine Philharmonic Orchestra and the Manila Symphony Orchestra especially with pieces lasting around 40 minutes and up. But every Halloween for the past five years, the Metro Manila Concert Orchestra under the baton of Josefino “Chino” Toledo has always prepared a special concert made especially for children of all ages at the Cultural Center of the Philippines. The concert entitled Greenilda Versus the Litterbugs happening this October 30, 2011 at 4:00 PM at the Tanghalang Nicanor Abelardo (CCP Main Theater) also aims to introduce the symphony orchestra and its music to children in a fun way.

And the fun happens even before the concert begins with the pre-concert activities like the musical petting zoo wherein the children can have the experience to play different orchestral instruments assisted by the members of the MMCO. And it cannot be Halloween without Trick or Treats which happens at the Little Theater and Main Theater Lobbies starting at 2:30 PM. The children are encouraged to come in their costumes to fully feel the Halloween experience when they watch and enjoy Greenilda from the Green Planet as she wipes out the Litterbugs in the Halloween Family Concert at the CCP. The concert is presented by CCP and the MMCO, and sponsored by Alveo Land.
