Back in December, Owen and Olly arrived as the new presenters of Children’s Classic Concerts like a brick through a window. The young percussionists are not only talented musicians themselves, but know how to bring other fun guys to the party. Their latest concert features the Mugenkyo Taiko Drummers, kilt-wearing drumming outfit Albannach and samba players from local primary schools. Prepare for an hour of explosive world rhythms.
