This Traditional Orchestra is made of young people from Casa Pia in Lisbon who attend musical activities of traditional percussion, bagpipes, and the youth philharmonic band. The repertoire is based on Portuguese ethnographic music of oral and written tradition, thus perpetuating the appreciation and transmission of Portuguese musical heritage. Apprentices and masters come together in this concert to make their music and joy echo in Big Bang’s space.

Big Bang LX 2023

BIG BANG is the ideal festival for those with curious ears and fearless spirits. This year we already celebrate its 13th edition. Young spectators enter this labyrinth of musical adventures. Be prepared for a colourful and diverse program of multidisciplinary shows, interactive installations and music of many styles and formats. The BIG BANG Festival is one big, attractive journey for both children, young people and adults.

BIG BANG is an international project that involves several international partners, with festivals taking place in no less than twelve European countries and Canada. Initiated by the Belgian music theatre company Zonzo Compagnie, this project has allowed the CCB/Fábrica das Artes to become an important space for the exchange of musical experiences for children, allowing Portuguese and foreign musicians throughout Europe and even beyond.
