The Swan of Tuonela ‘Infernal dance of King Kashchei’ from Firebird Suite Les Patineurs (Skaters’ Waltz), Op. 183 Four Dances from Estancia Jamaican Rumba Carmen Suite No. 1 ‘Gnomus’ from Pictures at an Exhibition Lullaby for String Orchestra ‘La Réjouissance’ from Music for the Royal Fireworks (arr. Rachel Leach) 633 Squadron Sabre Dance Candide Overture
If you enjoyed today’s music, here are some more pieces featuring gizzardgulping, fleshlumpeating, bloodbottling creatures...
Queen Elizabeth Hall, Purcell Room and Hayward Gallery are closed for essential refurbishment until 2018. During this period, our resident orchestras are performing in venues including St John’s Smith Square. Find out more at southbankcentre.co.uk/sjss
Grieg – ‘In The Hall of the Mountain King’ from Peer Gynt In this piece Grieg evokes a cave full of trolls, gnomes and goblins. Can you hear the ugly, hairy trolls creeping up on Peer, getting faster and faster? Luckily he escapes by the skin of his teeth – phew!
A few points to note for your comfort and enjoyment:
Berlioz – ‘Dream of a Witches’ Sabbath’ from Symphonie Fantastique Berlioz uses lots of special effects to set the scene for a gathering of witches: violins bouncing the wooden part of their bows to create bubbling cauldron sounds, the sound of a funeral bell and outbursts of musical laughter.
PHOTOGRAPHY is not allowed in the auditorium. LATECOMERS will only be admitted to the auditorium if there is a suitable break in the performance.
Saint-Saëns – Danse Macabre The story of Death (played by a violinist) making skeletons rise from their graves on Halloween and dance to his sinister tune.
RECORDING is not permitted in the auditorium without the prior consent of Southbank Centre. Southbank Centre reserves the right to confiscate video or sound equipment and hold it in safekeeping until the performance has ended.
Mussorgsky – A Night on the Bare Mountain This piece conjures up a wild and terrifying party with lots of dancing. When the sun comes up, party time is over and all the creepy creatures vanish! You might have heard this one on the soundtrack to the Disney film Fantasia.
MOBILES, PAGERS AND WATCHES should be switched off before the performance begins (or the Gizzardgulper will get you...)

dream facts SPOT THE DIFFERENCE Can you be spotting the difference betwixt them two pictures of me? They is right whizz-poppers! See if you can be finding all five...
Over a lifetime, the average person will spend six years dreaming. – Them human beans is a right lumping lazy bunch, them is. It’s not only people who dream, animals have dreams too. – Of course they does! And us giants does too! It’s not unusual to have more than one dream per night – in fact the average is between two and seven. – I is often having 20 dreams in one nightly, actual. Not everyone dreams in colour; lots of people only dream in black and white. – I is not knowing this! I is learning muchly about the land of noddy today.
ner Wordsearch: 1. Dreams; 2. Fleshlumpeater; 3. Frobscottle; 4. Wales; 5. Orphanage; 6. Snozzcumber; 7. The Queen; 8. Matilda Spot the Difference (from left to right): The BFG’s right thumb is missing; his belt buckle has disappeared; his left shoe has no holes in it; his briefcase has a diagonal pattern; a rock on the ground has disappeared.
