SUMMARY:Mini Maestros
DESCRIPTION:Hey kids! You and your favorite adult are invited to a concert series just for you! \nMini Maestros is designed especially for children ages 2–8 and their families. Each of the four-concerts in the series provides an interactive concert experience with Symphony Tacoma musicians and their instruments. With curriculum developed by Early Childhood Learning experts\, the 45-minute “informances” get kids physically and mentally engaged with the music.­ \nThe first three concerts highlight a different family of instruments — strings\, brass and percussion. Educator and emcee Shay Ryan (Kiddos and Kin) introduces the instruments and foundational musical concepts while costumed musicians demonstrate through a selection of songs that children respond to by singing\, dancing\, marching and clapping their hands. \nThe grand finale performance is Sergei Prokofiev’s classic “Peter and the Wolf\,” which introduces various instruments in the orchestra as characters in the classic Russian folk tale. Featuring the full orchestra\, it provides a vivid culmination of concepts presented in the previous concerts. \nEach concert is preceded by an instrument “petting zoo” that begins one hour before the performances\, providing an opportunity for the children to touch and try out the musical instruments with the assistance of musicians. \nAll concerts begin at 2:30 p.m.\, with the instrument petting zoo beginning at 1:30 p.m. Tickets to individual concerts are $11 for children and $14 for adults (including box office fees). \nConcert Schedule: \n“Once Upon a String”: Sunday\, Jan. 11 | 2:30 p.m. \n“Brass Ahoy!”: Sunday\, Feb. 1 | 2:30 p.m. \n“Around the World in 80 Drums”: Sunday\, March 1 | 2:30 p.m. \n“Peter and the Wolf”: Sunday\, April 26 | 2:30 p.m. \nCome early for the instrument zoo at 1:30 p.m.!
