The Northwestern University School of Music will present the Kids Fare series and the Family Fare Concert series this fall. Each of these enjoyable, introductory programs is organized around a theme. Family Concerts bridge the gap between Kids Fare and formal symphony orchestra concerts. These concerts feature short works from standard orchestra repertoire.
Conductors lead both the orchestra and lively commentaries.
Family Concerts are ideal for children ages 6 and up and the entire family. All three of the following concerts will be held in Pick-Staiger Concert Hall located at 1977 S. Campus Drive on the Evanston Campus. Not only will Hill and Burritt entertain, they will sharpen children's listening skills. Conductor Victor Yampolsky will lead the Northwestern University Symphony Orchestra as it celebrates the culture and climate of the Mediterranean coast. Soloist Mathew Cashman will play the alto saxophone.
