The Lighthouse is proud to present internationally acclaimed artist, author and composer Matt Ottley's multi-modal initiative, The SOUND of PICTURE BOOKS. It is Matt’s unique ability to cross mediums which has lead him to conceive an innovative and unique experience showcasing literature, art and music. 
 
In this all ages concert watch the boundless possibilities of music and literature as Matt demonstrates his unique illustration and composition techniques. What does a picture sound like? What does a melody look like? 
 
See Matt’s magnificent children's book, 'How to Make a Bird', by author Meg McKinlay, come to life!
 
Featuring award winning artist/composer Matt Ottley, Tina Wilson (narrator), Ayesha Gough (piano), Marco Bellasi (conductor) and The Michael Haydn Orchestra.
