Young People's Concerts:

Building the Orchestra!

One of the WVSO's strongest initiatives, the Young People’s Concert Series reaches thousands of students annually. Students from schools and programs across the region and state are bussed in to enjoy these concerts at different locations around the state.

 

Have you ever wondered why an orchestra looks the way it does? Why do we have trumpets, but not guitars? Join the West Virginia Symphony and Music Director Maurice Cohn for a time-traveling journey of how the orchestra was built, with stories of royal courts, marching soldiers, and a lot of amazing music! Concert lasts 50 minutes.

Tuesday, November 18, Clay Center in Charleston, WV at 9:30 a.m. and 11:30 a.m.
Thursday, November 19, Robinson Grand Performing Arts in Clarksburg, WV at 9:30 a.m. and 11:30 a.m.

Please contact Rose McDonough rmcdonough@wvsymphony.org or call (304) 957-9871 for more details.

Thanks to our Young People’s Concert Sponsors:
