Puzzles are tricky! How do all the pieces fit together? Upbeat OAE TOTS concerts give families the chance to share the stage with a cast of occasionally weird – and always wonderful – instruments.

OAE TOTS: Puzzled Tots is part of the Orchestra of the Age of Enlightenment. They make old music new, playing instruments and using techniques from the period in which the music was written.

Founded in 1986, the orchestra’s name refers to the common term for the explosion of science, philosophy and culture in Western Europe during the 1600s and 1700s, the Age of Enlightenment. It was the time of Isaac Newton and Voltaire, and a quest for liberty. The period also found its voice in music as composers sought more freedom in the way they worked  to promote their (often socially subversive) ideas.
