The New Zealand Symphony Orchestra at Te Papa


We went to see the orchestra today.
William G - I liked the violin because it was shorter and it had a higher sound.
Litania - I liked the double bass because of the low sound.
Braden- I liked the hippopotamus story. The music went lower and then higher.
Dante - The lady told us how the violin goes high and low.
Jacob -The viola is bigger than a violin, the cello was bigger and the double bass was the biggest!
Jamie - The french horn was really curly and it had a loud sound.
Krishan - The clarinet was a bit like the flute. You pressed the keys to make different sounds.
Did you know that most instruments get better as they get older but the clarinet doesn't. You have to buy a new one every few years.
