The Chimpanzees of Happy Town

The Boyne Music Festival is delighted to present The Chimpanzees of Happy Town with narration and visuals from the book of the same title. Brought to vivid life by the original music of Paul Rissman, it’s a life-affirming tale sure to warm the hearts of both children and their parents.

This hour-long family friendly programme will also include a short performance by participants in the morning BMF Children’s Workshop.

The BMF Family concert is a highlight of the festival programme each year as it features all of the BMF’s incredible artists sharing their musical ideas in a playful setting. In addition to The Chimpanzees of Happy Town, the concert will include performances by this year’s BMF Young Artists and many bite-sized musical gems.
