Share the magic of live classical music
with your children, grandchildren, neighbors and friends! Each
program opens with an introduction to the instruments and musicians
followed by selections of familiar children’s songs arranged for
chamber ensemble. This builds up to a magical reading of a
well-loved children’s story set to music with illustrations from the
book projected on a screen. Following the performance, join us for a
cookie and punch reception where you can meet the musicians and
fellow audience members!
