From the Cockerel to the Donkey

After the Brothers Grimm

Les Nouveaux Caractères - Sébastien d'Hérin – conductor

A man once had a donkey which had served him well for many years, but which was now well past its prime. The donkey's master planned to have him skinned but the donkey, upon realising this, escaped and ran away, taking the road towards Bremen. "There", he said, "I shall become a town musician". As everyone knows, the donkey met up with the dog, the cat and the cockerel, who all shared his career aspirations. A spectacle of shadows, light and music, which lets us discover the great works of baroque music in a playful and intelligent performance, specially conceived for children.

A re-telling in shadows and music of the tale The Musicians of Bremen by the Brothers Grimm.
