Fort Bend Symphony Orchestra’s performance at George Memorial will be a ‘hands-on music education at its most magical’

About this Event

Families, educators, and curious minds of all ages are invited to find a good seat at George Memorial’s Jodie E. Stavinoha Amphitheater for a free musical experience with The Fort Bend Symphony Orchestra, which will perform “The Magic of Music: A Children’s Concert Adventure,” a compilation of works by George Bizet, Igor Stravinsky, Joseph Hayden, John Powell, and Edward Grieg. According to the orchestra: “Under the expert guidance of Principal Conductor Julie Sorensen, young music lovers and their families will embark on an enchanting 45-minute journey through the fundamentals of orchestral music.” Armed with special conductor's batons – which the orchestra explained are “magic white pencils” – children can help guide the Fort Bend Symphony Orchestra through musical masterpieces and discover how their movements can make the music play staccato or legato, loud or soft. “It's hands-on music education at its most magical.”
