THE ORCHESTRA is a show for children and young people that combines the work of composers who explored the world of children in their musical creations with this dramaturgy, telling an alternative story of the orchestra’s origin.

In Orchestra, in a village in the Litania region, live Tina Trompa, Vitorino Violino, Freddie Fagote, and Tânia Teclas, musical inhabitants who, through spoken and sung voices, present their instruments and their families – the families of instruments in the orchestra. Faced with the appearance of a villain who hates music and steals musical notes from them, the four characters embark on an adventure in search of the lost notes. Passing through various adventures and unexpected encounters in legato and allegro, they discover, through music, a sense of unity that will change their lives and the history of music forever.
