In light of the tremendous success of the show Bébé symphonique, which sold out this spring at the Planetarium Rio Tinto Alcan, Espace pour la vie is announcing new dates for the fall of 2022. The immersive musical experience for babies 0 to 18 months and their parents will be back starting September 6. Produced by GSI Musique and created by the Montreal studio Noisy Head with the music of the album Bébé symphonique (maestro Simon Leclerc / Orchestre symphonique de Montréal), the show Bébé symphonique will be presented as a double feature along with Poussières d'étoiles.
"The response from infants and their parents far exceeded our expectations. We wanted to offer them moments of connection to the rhythm of symphonic music and the images projected on the Planétarium dome—transformed into a gentle realm for the occasion. Seeing the joy on the faces of young and old alike, there's no doubt in my mind that we met our objective," said Olivier Hernandez, director of the Planétarium Rio Tinto Alcan.
