Olli Starts an Orchestra

Olli the Elephant has a dream: to become a musician in the big city. With his trumpet tight in his trunk, he sets off. On his way to the big city he meets lots of other musicians, who all join him on his journey. The city is buzzing with music and fun, until the pigeons bring it to an end. They control the city streets…

The Ollimania characters are made up of simple, round shapes. But it’s not just the clean, graphic design that makes Ollimania so incredibly succesful. The characters’ childlike attitude, goofiness and sense of humour appeals to children of all ages. Olli Starts an Orchestra is published in collaboration with the Rotterdam Hellendaal Musical Institute, which introduces children tot he endless possiblities of music.
