“What does a conductor do anyway?” sounds like the latest reality/celebrity programme, but it’s actually the question behind this family concert, which is performed as two separate matinees by Cambridge Philharmonic on 21 January.

Let the orchestra take you on a whistle-stop tour of conducting through history. You’ll find out how a conductor can change the sound without saying a word, or you might get the chance to conduct the orchestra yourself.

Amazing music from Mendelssohn, Mahler, Bernstein and Berlioz will feature in concerts at 2pm and 4pm. Tickets are £12.
