Join the 麻豆官网首页入口 Symphony Orchestra, conductor Ben Palmer and award-winning special guest narrator, Simon Russell Beale as they take on two fun-filled musical adventures written by Michael Bond: Paddington's First Concert with music by Herbert Chappell, and Paddington at St. Paul's accompanied by delightful illustrations by R.W.Alley. Paddington鈥檚 First Concert sees him making his conducting debut in the Royal Albert Hall.
