This season’s theme gives the audience a chance to experience the ways that rhythm shapes our music and our lives. Through the music of Leonard Bernstein with his embrace of American jazz rhythms, the music of Beethoven and his famous “knock on the door” from his 5th Symphony, plus clapping games and percussion demonstrations, we start to recognize rhythm wherever we go.
And the fun doesn’t end there! With our new Micro-Faire, participants will have up close and personal experiences with real instruments, Q and A with the musicians, interactive games, and more. We look forward to seeing you there!
Kids (under 12): 11 a.m.
