Beginning this weekend, Wilton Library is hosting a (Not) Just for Kids Music series with the Norwalk Symphony Orchestra, which introduces kids (of all ages) to different kinds of musical instruments.
The Norwalk Symphony Orchestra (Not) Just For Kids program is a lively, fun and interactive program designed to be educational as well as entertaining. Members of the orchestra demonstrate their instruments, play for the children, and answer questions in hour-long presentations. Throughout the season presentations are made for all instrument families: strings, woodwinds, brass, and percussion. All programs end with attendees having a chance to hold and try to play a beginning level instrument in the ‘Petting Zoo.’
The series begin this Saturday, Oct. 15 from 3-4 p.m. in the Brubeck Room and runs periodically through the year, as follows:
Saturday, Oct. 15, 2016–Start with Strings!
Saturday, Dec. 10, 2016–A Joyful Noise! – Percussion
