About
Tarantula is a lonely spider who can't spin a web and dreams of a palace full of friends, until she discovers she can make the other animals dance. Members of the Concertgebouw Orchestra play Saint-Saëns, from Carnival of the Animals to Danse macabre, while actress Charlene Sancho tells her story in Dutch. The concert is made with Oorkaan and directed by Caecilia Thunnissen.
