Join science presenter and comedian Helen Arney (BBC Radio 4's Domestic Science), special guest scientists, and the LPO in our first ever concert hall laboratory to discover the answers to these questions and more.

With interactive experiments and demonstrations live on stage – and plenty of brilliant music – Conducting Science will give parents and children alike a chance to look down the microscope at the secrets behind the Orchestra's sounds.
